Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is a popular assumption among educators that strong educational systems produce high tests scores on mathematics achievement tests; many believe that the best way to improve test scores is to mimic the practices of countries where students are performing well. This thesis explores the reasons for the differences in mathematics achievement between students in the United States and students in other high-achieving countries. Ten factors are identified as possible reasons for higher mathematics performance. The review of literature shows that mathematics education in high-achieving countries is closely connected to its cultural values and beliefs. Education reform in the United States should look beyond replicating the education systems of high-achieving countries and should focus on creating systems that lead to higher achievement and are supported by the American cultural values and beliefs."--leaf 3.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent work on differences in mathematics achievement has highlighted the importance of classroom, teacher and school factors. The present study used data from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) to look at student, classroom and school factors influencing mathematics achievement in the United States ( US) and Australia. It found that classroom differences account for about one-third of the variation in student achievement in the United States and over 0ne-quarter in Australia. Much of the classroom variation was due to compositional and organisational factors. This has important implications for policy regarding the improvement of mathematics achievement in schools.

Book Synopsis The Factors Effecting Student Achievement by : Engin Karadağ
Download or read book The Factors Effecting Student Achievement written by Engin Karadağ and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-14 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the effect of psychological, social and demographic variables on student achievement and summarizes the current research findings in the field. It addresses the need for inclusive and interpretive studies in the field in order to interpret student achievement literature and suggests new pathways for further studies. Appropriately, a meta-analysis approach is used by the contributors to show the big picture to the researchers by analyzing and combining the findings from different independent studies. In particular, the authors compile various studies examining the relationship between student achievement and 21 psychological, social and demographic variables separately. The philosophy behind this book is to direct future research and practices rather than addressing the limits of current studies.

Book Synopsis Identifying the Factors Affecting Science and Mathematics Achievement Using Data Mining Methods by : S. Ahmet Kiray
Download or read book Identifying the Factors Affecting Science and Mathematics Achievement Using Data Mining Methods written by S. Ahmet Kiray and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this article is to identify the order of significance of the variables that affect science and mathematics achievement in middle school students. For this aim, the study deals with the relationship between science and math in terms of different angles using the perspectives of multiple causes-single effect and of multiple causes-multiple effects. Furthermore, the study examines and reveals how the reading skills, problem solving skills, cognitive and affective variables influence the math and science achievement. The data was collected from the results of Turkish students who participated in three international examinations; TIMSS 1999, PISA 2003 and PISA 2006. We analyzed the data using two data-mining methods (decision trees and clustering). The findings show that science or mathematics achievement is not influenced by the course-specific variable alone but also by other related variables. The following variables are the most important; the students' reading and problem-solving skills affected both mathematics and science achievement; the mathematics achievement affected the science achievement; and the science achievement affected the mathematics achievement. It is also found that the affective variables have almost equally significant effects on the science and mathematics achievement.

Book Synopsis Contributing Factors Affecting Students Attitudes towards Mathematics in Sabah by : Shamila Dewi Davadas
Download or read book Contributing Factors Affecting Students Attitudes towards Mathematics in Sabah written by Shamila Dewi Davadas and published by Universiti Malaysia Sabah Press. This book was released on 2021-06-28 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strong mathematics background is essential for job opportunities and advancement in a developing country like Malaysia. It gives students the confidence and ability to solve problems and become rational as well as critical in their thinking. However, Malaysian students’ mathematics achievement is relatively low as compared to other school subjects. This difference is more pronounced in rural schools. Previous studies have highlighted the relationship between students’ attitude and achievement in mathematics. Hence, it is important to investigate the contributing factors that affect students’ attitudes towards mathematics. This book is adapted and modified from a PhD thesis entitled: “Factors affecting students’ attitude towards mathematics in Sabah, Malaysia” of the first author. In this book, the relationships among perceived parental influences, teacher affective support, classroom instruction, gender, SES, students’ previous achievement and students’ attitude towards mathematics are portrayed using Structural Equation Modeling approach. Findings from the study can be utilised to understand the complex interplay of relationships that form students’ attitude towards mathematics, including factors that can be addressed by the classroom mathematics teacher. This book will be useful for secondary school mathematics teachers, researchers, school administrators, students, and policymakers.

Download or read book A Cross-Cultural Comparison of Mathematics Achievement written by Betül Yayan and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, there has been a growing interest for the international comparative studies in education area in all over the world. Since mathematics opens the doors of careers and provides knowledge to compete in a technological economy, up to now many researchers have consistently tried to determine the determinants of mathematics achievement. Thus, this book focused on determining the factors affecting mathematics achievement of students participated in TIMSS-R and comparing these factors across three different countries participated in TIMSS-R project. In the book, a model based on the related literature was proposed and afterwards it was tested for each country separately. Finally, the models were discussed by focusing on the similarities and the differences. The book provides illuminating data that may help to overview and rethink of educational practices especially in mathematics teaching and learning from a large-scale comparative perspective. Teachers may gain valuable insights with regard to mathematics teaching and learning. Moreover, the book encourages the researchers for conducting subsequent replication and extension studies within and across different cultures.

Book Synopsis Mathematics Success and Failure Among African-American Youth by : Danny Bernard Martin
Download or read book Mathematics Success and Failure Among African-American Youth written by Danny Bernard Martin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No matter how mathematics achievement and persistence are measured, African Americans seem to lag behind their peers. This state of affairs is typically explained in terms of student ability, family background, differential treatment by teachers, and biased curricula. But what can explain disproportionately poor performance and persistence of African-American students who clearly possess the ability to do well, who come from varied family and socioeconomic backgrounds, who are taught by caring and concerned teachers, and who learn mathematics in the context of a reform-oriented mathematics curriculum? And, why do some African-American students succeed in mathematics when underachievement is the norm among their fellow students? Danny Martin addresses these questions in Mathematics Success and Failure Among African-American Youth, the results of a year-long ethnographic and observational study of African-American students and their parents and teachers. Mathematics Success and Failure Among African-American Youth goes beyond the conventional explanations of ability, socioeconomic status, differential treatment, and biased curricula to consider the effects of history, community, and peers--and the individual agency that allows some students to succeed despite these influences. Martin's analysis suggests that prior studies of mathematics achievement and persistence among African Americans have failed to link sociohistorical, community, school, and intrapersonal forces in sufficiently meaningful ways, and that they suffer from theoretical and methodological limitations that hinder the ability of mathematics educators to reverse the negative achievement and persistence trends that continue to afflict African-American students. The analyses and findings offered in Martin's book lead to exciting implications for future research and intervention efforts concerning African-American students--and other students for whom history and context play an important role. This book will be useful and informative to many groups: mathematics education researchers, education researchers interested in the social context of learning and teaching, policymakers, preservice and in-service teachers, students, parents, and community advocates. It will also be of interest to readers concerned with multicultural education, cross-cultural studies of mathematics learning, sociology of education, Black Studies, and issues of underrepresentation in science and mathematics.
