A Longitudinal/Cross-Sectional Study of the Impact of Mathematics in Context on Students Mathematical Performance

该项目最初提交给研究和学习计划，现已转移到研究和指标计划。 它被评价为数学改革的研究。 该项目的目的是记录改革数学课程（情境中的数学）对5至8年级学生数学成绩的影响。 该项目将研究学生表现随时间的变化，并将其结果与不同项目中的类似学生进行比较。 将在三个城区学区和三个区的四所学校进行为期四年的具有比较特色的纵向研究。 该网站将被选择的网站将使用数学在上下文课程和两个将使用传统的课程。将产生有关课程教学及其对学生成绩影响的信息的变量指标。 这项研究将编写技术报告和文章，向教育工作者、决策者和家长提供信息。

This project was originally submitted to the Research and Learning program and has been transferred to the Studies and Indicators program. It has been evaluated as a study of the reform of mathematics. The purpose of this project is to document the impact of a particular effort to reform mathematics curriculum (Mathematics in Context) for grades 5 to 8 on the mathematical performance of students. The project will examine changes in student performance over time and compare their results with similar students in different programs. A four-year longitudinal study with comparative features will be conducted in four schools in three urban school districts and three districts. The sites will be chosen site will use the Mathematics in Context curriculum and two will use a traditional curriculum. Indicator of the variables that will yield information about the teaching of the curriculum and its impact on student performance. the study will produce technical reports, and articles to inform educators, policy makers, and parents.
