achievement. Following the naming conventions of prior studies, the follow up study should have been called the Fourth International Mathematics and Science Study (FIMSS), and the subsequent study should have been called the Fifth International Mathematics and Science Study (also FIMSS). To avoid confusion among educators and policymakers, and to build on the name recognition of the 1995 study, it was decided to keep the TIMSS moniker by changing "Third" to "Trends." Thus, TIMSS is now known as the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study. Each subsequent data collection is differentiated by the year of data collection (e.g., TIMSS 1999, TIMSS 2003, and TIMSS 2007).

Unseemly conduct, such as 371:. Accordingly, it is not the appropriate venue for advocacy or for advancing a specific point of view. While coverage of all significant points of view is a necessary part of balancing an article, striving to give exposure to minority viewpoints that are not significantly expressed in reliable secondary sources is not. 673:

During 1980–81, IEA conducted the Second International Mathematics Study (SIMS), with 20 countries participating, and in 1983–84 carried out the Second International Science Study (SISS), with 24 countries. Both studies tested three populations of students. This strategy of carrying out a repeated

Why European counties are given a special ranking category? Either we do the whole list of all countries or we do top 10. The more useful info is ranking for the 4th grade and the 12th grade. Those can show the trend from lower grade to higher grade levels. If there is no objection, I will remove

I am having trouble verifing the scores listed in the tables for the year 1995. According to the National Council for Educational Statistics reports for trends in math and science, the 1995 numbers differ considerably. Additionally, there does not appear to be a source given for the data in the

TIMSS was the third in a series of assessments of the mathematics and science knowledge and skills of students around the world. After the TIMSS 1995 data collection, there was collective agreement that the study should continue on a 4-year cycle, so that countries could follow trends in student

Twelve countries participated in this First International Mathematics Study (FIMS). They collected data in 1964 on two populations-13-year-olds and students at the pre-university year. The study identified several different factors influencing both the learning and teaching of mathematics.
506:
Why is the TIMSS often called the "Third" International Mathematics and Science Study? For example, both the chart of the 1997 and the chart for the 2003 study in this article are labeled the "Third International Math and Science Study." This is not explained in the article.

keep digging up sources on international education comparisons, and I encourage you to do the same and to suggest those for additions to the citation lists. Feel free to refer to those to edit this article and articles on related topics. --

In 1995, IEA completed data collection for the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). Forty-five countries participated in TIMSS, with more than half a million students encompassing five grades tested.

TIMSS was not conducted in 1997. It was first done in 1995, then every 4 years, meaning 1999, 2003, and 2007. This chart is either made up if the citations are correct, or has the wrong date. Someone is retarded.
343:. In particular, analyses or conclusions not already published in reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy are not appropriate for inclusion in articles. 702:
P.S. I have added the scores myself but someone should make a map. Also I suggest adding the entire list of countries (at least for the latest set, like with HDI stats) if anyone has time to do it. —

Apparently there is no data for 12th grade. So I should say that we remove the European ranking and add the 4th grade rankings similar to what we currently have for 8th grade.
