School Size and Student Achievement in TIMSS 2003
A large strand of literature within different social sciences of education deals with the effects of school size on student achievement. Much of the existing research seems to indicate that up to a point, small school size is associated with higher student achievement, with optimal school sizes of some 600-900 students. However, evidence is mostly confined to the United States. Using TIMSS data...
متن کاملMotivational Beliefs in the TIMSS 2003 Context: Theory, Measurement and Relation to Test Performance
The main objective of this thesis was to explore issues related to student achievement motivation in the Swedish TIMSS 2003 (Trend in International Mathematics and Science Study) context. The thesis comprises of five empirical papers and a summary. The expectancy-value theory of achievement motivation was used as the general theoretical framework in all empirical papers, and all papers are conc...
متن کاملA Comparison of PISA and TIMSS 2003 achievement results in Mathematics and Science
This study compares PISA 2003 Mathematics and Science results with TIMSS 2003 Grade 8 Mathematics and Science results, using country mean scores for 22 participants of both studies. In Mathematics, it is found that Western countries generally performed better in PISA than in TIMSS, and Eastern European and Asian countries generally performed better in TIMSS than in PISA. Furthermore, two factor...
متن کاملEducational-teaching Practices and Achievement Timss – Mathematics
This paper examines the IEA’s Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) data for Greece and more specifically POP2 (8th grade). The paper focuses on the teacher’s educational-teaching practices in the classrooms and analyses these with factor analysis. We also investigate the relationship between teaching practices and student achievement with regression analysis. Educational / ...
متن کاملThe Emperor’s new clothes: PISA, TIMSS and Finnish mathematics
For nearly fifteen years, due to repeated successes on the Programme of International Student Assessment (PISA), Finnish education in general and mathematics education in particular have been construed internationally as benchmarks. In what is essentially a review paper I consider how the Finns explain their students' repeated PISA successes before contrasting these explanations with observatio...
