Description: 'The chapters in this volume are intended to report at an international level on the impact that participation in TIMSS had in many of the countries that participated in this study. The international benchmarks that were derived from the TIMSS data and the international context of the study allow analysts to consider not only what is within their country, but also to judge what is possible. As such, this volume should provide a valuable summary of some of the changes in curriculum, instruction and educational policy in the areas of mathematics and science that have taken place around the world as a result of TIMSS.' -- p.7.
