Book excerpt: This report on science and mathematics indicators is intended to assist state, national, and local policymakers and educators in making informed decisions. This report focuses on science and mathematics indicators at state and national levels. The indicators are intended for use by policymakers and educators to assess progress in improving mathematics and science education in the schools. The 1997 report presents new state indicators from the 1995-96 school year and examines trends by state from 1990 to 1996 on indicators of student achievement, content and instruction, and context and conditions for teaching. Indicators were selected through consultation with state education leaders, science and mathematics educators, representatives of national professional organizations, and education researchers. (Contains 61 references, 32 tables, and 14 figures.) (ASK)

Book excerpt: Efforts to reform and restructure science and mathematics education should be based on a sound assessment of current conditions, the rate of improvement, and problems in the system. This report focuses on indicators of the condition of science and mathematics education at state and national levels. The 1999 report presents new state indicators from the 1997-98 school year and examines trends, by state, from 1990 to 1998 on indicators of student achievement, content and instruction, and context and conditions for teaching. Among the student achievement indicators, the study found that proficiency on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) in mathematics had a significant improvement: the percentage of grade 8 students scoring at or above the proficient level was 23% at the national level, and 27% of students were at or above the proficient level in science at grade 8. Among the findings in the area of content and instruction, the study found that seven states had over three-fourths of high school students take three years of high school mathematics in 1998. The number of mathematics and science teachers rose in the 1990s in the area of teacher preparation and supply. In the area of conditions and context for teaching, it was found that in 35% of grade 4 classrooms, one computer is available for mathematics instruction, 29% have two or more computers available, and only 6% have no computers available. Appendices provide more detailed data and information by state. (Contains 72 references.) (ASK)

Book excerpt: Since 1989, with the publication of Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for Mathematics by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, standards have been at the forefront of the education reform movement in the United States. The mathematics standards, which were revised in 2000, have been joined by standards in many subjects, including the National Research Council's National Science Education Standards published in 1996 and the Standards for Technical Literacy issued by the International Technology Education Association in 2000. There is no doubt that standards have begun to influence the education system. The question remains, however, what the nature of that influence is and, most importantly, whether standards truly improve student learning. To answer those questions, one must begin to examine the ways in which components of the system have been influenced by the standards. Investigating the Influence of Standards provides a framework to guide the design, conduct, and interpretation of research regarding the influences of nationally promulgated standards in mathematics, science, and technology education on student learning. Researchers and consumers of research such as teachers, teacher educators, and administrators will find the framework useful as they work toward developing an understanding of the influence of standards.
