Abstract. This study aims to determine the suitability of mathematics textbooks for eighth-grade with Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 2019 Mathematics Framework. This research uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach and content analysis techniques. The data of this research are the eighth-grade mathematics textbook. In the textbook analysis, the researcher used three textbooks, namely Penerbit Erlangga, Yudhistira, and the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud). The analysis carried out was the analysis of the content domain and knowledge domain based on the TIMSS 2019 Mathematics Framework. The content domain contains numbers, algebra, geometry, and data, and probability. While the knowledge domain contains aspects of understanding, application, and reasoning. In the Penerbit Erlangga book, there are only 2 out of 4 pieces of content contained in TIMSS, while the cognitive domain is 2 out of 3 aspects. Yudhistira book 2 of 4 content contained in TIMSS, while the cognitive domain is 1 of 3 aspects. Kemendikbud’s book is 1 of 4 content domains in TIMSS, while the cognitive domain is 1 of 3 aspects. Therefore the three eighth-grade mathematics textbooks as a whole are still not suitable for the TIMSS 2019 Mathematics Framework.   Abstrak. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan kecocokan buku ajar matematika kelas VIII dengan Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 2019 Mathematics Framework. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif dan teknik analisis isi. Data yang dianalisis adalah buku ajar matematika kelas VIII. Dalam analisis buku ajar, peneliti menggunakan tiga buku ajar yaitu terbitan Erlangga, Yudhistira, dan Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan (Kemendikbud). Analisis dilakukan terhadap content domain dan knowledge domain berdasarkan TIMSS 2019 Mathematics Framework. Content domain terdiri dari bilangan, aljabar, geometri, dan data dan peluang. Sedangkan knowledge domain terdiri dari aspek pemahaman, penerapan dan penalaran. Dalam buku Erlangga, terdapat dua dari 4 content domain, sedangkan cognitive domain hanya 2 dari 3 aspek.

The Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) reported more than just numerical achievement data. The study also contained information on teachers' lives, students' lives, and curricula, as well as a videotape of eighth-grade mathematics classes (OERI 1996a). These data, especially the videotaped study, go beyond comparisons of achievement scores and allow for cross-cultural comparisons of mathematics instruction in the United States and other countries. In particular, we can learn many lessons from examining instructional methods in the United States and comparing them with those of Japan. This comparison has significant implications for implementing NCTM's Standards in U.S. classrooms and teaching our students as if they were young mathematicians.

Country Specific

The 2015 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) involved 57 countries and 43 different languages to assess students’ achievement in mathematics and science. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether items and test scores are affected as the differences between language families and cultures increase. Using differential item functioning (DIF) procedures, we compared the consistency of students’ performance across three combinations of languages and countries: (a) same language but different countries, (b) same countries but different languages, and (c) different languages and different countries. The analyses consisted of the detection of the number of DIF items for all paired comparisons within each condition, the direction of DIF, the magnitude of DIF, and the differences between test characteristic curves. As the countries were more distant with respect to cultures and language families, the presence of DIF increased. The magnitude of DIF was greatest when both language and country differed, and smallest when the languages were same, but the countries were different. Results suggest that when TIMSS results are compared across countries, the language- and country-specific differences which could reflect cultural, curriculum, or other differences should be considered.

Policy-makers in many nations of the world are involved in educational reforms. In order to make effective educational decisions for the 21st century, policy-makers need information of a wide variety of kinds, for example, comparative performance data and curriculum information from other nations. National assessments can be valuable, but international surveys provide a broader base of information and allow countries to view their current status and planning within an international perspective. The purpose of this paper is to describe the goals of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study and the steps being followed to insure that the results from the study will meet the diverse informational needs of policy-makers.

This paper argues for a more complex literature around gender and math performance. In order to argue for this complexity, we present a small portion of data from a case study examining the performance of Kuwaiti students on the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study and on Kuwait national math tests. Westernized discourses suggest that girls have a harder time in math classes; these discourses frame and are reified by prominent literature and practices within the field of math education research that suggest that women and girls need help in order to reach their potential in math. These Westernized discourses stand in contrast to the discourses in Kuwait that normalize women and girls as outperforming boys in all subjects – including all science, technology, engineering and mathematics subjects. As our study shows, the reality is more complex. And, while the reality is more complex, we yet lack the discourses to understand this complexity.

In the study reported on here I evaluated the alignment between the Annual National Assessment (ANA) and Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). Theoretical perspectives were drawn from the Survey Enacted Curriculum (SEC), while quantitative correlational methods were used to determine the alignment between ANA and TIMSS using 2 variables in the assessments, topics and cognitive levels. The research design was the correlational prediction design. The evaluation revealed that the Porter’s alignment index between ANA and TIMSS was 0.657 in 2012, 0.728 in 2013 and 0.681 in 2014. Statistically, this was significantly low at the Alpha level of 0.05, in accordance with Fulmer’s critical values at 20, 60 and 120 standard points. The low statistical significance of the alignment indices justifies discrepancies in topics and cognitive levels for ANA and TIMSS, justifying misalignment in what was tested in the two assessments. It is recommended that alignment studies be sanctioned frequently by the ANA developers as one of many measures to gauge the performance of the curriculum both in a national and international context.
