TIMSS 2011数学学业成就及其影响因素分析

Analyses of Factors Affecting Students' Mathematics Achievement in TIMSS 2011

TIMSS2011数学评价研究显示,新加坡、韩国、中国台北、中国香港与日本等东亚5地4、8年级学生的数学学业成就与优质生依然领跑世界;数学内容、认知领域成绩随总成绩同步升高,几何成绩相对薄弱,理解的成绩相对优于应用和推理;家庭环境、学校资源和风气、教师配备、课堂教学(数学课程)等关键影响因素与数学学业成就正相关.

East Asian countries continue to lead the world in mathematics achievement in TIMSS 2011. Singapore, Korea, and Hong Kong SAR, followed by Chinese Taipei and Japan were the top-performing countries at the fourth grade. Similarly, at the eighth grade, Korea, Singapore, and Chinese Taipei outperformed all other countries, followed by Hong Kong SAR and Japan Generally, the TIMSS 2011 participants with the highest achievement overall also had the highest achievement across the content and cognitive demands. Intemationally, the fewest countries showed relative strength in geometry, more countries demonstrated relative strengths in knowing mathematics than in applying mathematical knowledge and reasoning. Research shows a strong positive relationship between mathematics achievement and factors affecting academic achievement, such as home environment, school resources and climate, teacher preparation, classroom instruction, etc.
