This study examined the factors that determined the science achievement of fourth-grade students on the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 2019 in the USA. The data were retrieved from the TIMSS international database and imported to the R program for manipulation. The EdSurvey package was used to conduct multilevel…

Aru, Sidika Akyüz; Kale, Mustafa – Journal of Education and Training Studies, 2019
The overall aim of this study is to investigate the effect of school-related factors and early learning experiences on mathematics achievement. In this causal-comparative research, HLM analysis was performed on the data of 6378 students, their parents, and 241 school principals and primary school teachers. As a result of the HLM analysis, at the…

Direct linkHand, Brian; Shelley, Mack C.; Laugerman, Marcia; Fostvedt, Luke; Therrien, William – Science Education, 2018
In a cluster-randomized study, we investigate the impact of an argument-based approach to teaching science in elementary school on science learning and critical thinking skills. Forty-eight schools participated in the study, with data on 9,963 students across the 2 years of the intervention. Annual standardized tests assessing science content…

Huang, Haigen; Liang, Guodong – Journal of Educational Research, 2016
The authors' purpose was to examine the relationship between three forms of cultural capital--the embodied, the objectified, and the institutionalized--and student performance in mathematics and science. Their analysis of Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study 2011 data from 32 countries and regions revealed that parental…

Ker, Hsiang-Wei – Asia Pacific Journal of Education, 2017
Motivational constructs and students' engagements have great impacts on students' mathematics achievements, yet they have not been theoretically investigated using international large-scale assessment data. This study utilized the mathematics data of the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study 2011 to conduct a comparative and…

Jaciw, Andrew P.; Nguyen, Thanh; Lin, Li; Zacamy, Jenna L.; Kwong, Connie; Lau, Sze-Shun – Grantee Submission, 2020
These appendices accompany the report "Final Report of the i3 Impact Study of Making Sense of SCIENCE, 2016-17 through 2017-18." Science education has experienced a significant transition over the last decade, catalyzed by a re-envisioning of what students should know and be able to do in science. That re-envisioning culminated in the…

Panayiotou, Anastasia; Kyriakides, Leonidas; Creemers, Bert P. M. – School Leadership & Management, 2016
This European project investigates the impact of the school factors included in the dynamic model of educational effectiveness on student achievement. In each participating country (Belgium/Flanders, Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Ireland and Slovenia), a sample of at least 50 schools was drawn and tests in mathematics and science were administered to…

Robinson, Ann; Adelson, Jill L.; Kidd, Kristy A.; Cunningham, Christine M. – Gifted Child Quarterly, 2018
Guided by the theoretical framework of curriculum as a platform for talent development, this quasi-experimental field study investigated an intervention focused on engineering curriculum and curriculum based on a biography of a scientist through a comparative design implemented in low-income schools. Student outcome measures included science…

Liou, Pey-Yan – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2014
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between fourth and eighth grade students' self-concept and achievement in mathematics and science within one educational system based on the big-fish-little-pond effect (BFLPE) model. The samples were from the data of the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study 2011, and…

Hung, Pi-Hsia; Hwang, Gwo-Jen; Lee, Yueh-Hsun; Wu, Tsung-Hsun; Vogel, Bahtijar; Milrad, Marcelo; Johansson, Emil – Educational Technology & Society, 2014
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a ubiquitous problem-based learning system (UPBLS) on students' question-raising performance in field inquiry activities. An experiment was conducted on an elementary school natural science course. A total of 43 sixth and fifth grade elementary students divided into experienced and…

Strand, Steve – Review of Education, 2016
Relatively little research has explored whether schools differ in their effectiveness for different group of pupils (e.g. by ethnicity, poverty or gender), for different curriculum subjects (e.g. English, mathematics or science) or over time (different cohorts). This paper uses multilevel modelling to analyse the national test results at age 7 and…
