Previous international studies of mathematics and science education have provided important perspectives on the global competitiveness of STEM education in the United States. The world, including the world of mathematics in schools, has changed in many ways over the past 20 years especially in the area of technology which is closely related to the discipline of mathematics. Many countries have revised their mathematics standards and currently, questions about what is needed for a 21st century curriculum continue to drive curriculum reform in virtually every country. Questions around what students need to know and be able to do in the 21st century are central in curriculum reform discussions in the U.S. and other countries. These questions have led the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to plan and develop the Education 2030 International Curriculum Analysis. This project will take advantage of the developing opportunity to participate in OECD's Education 2030 Curriculum Analysis to develop a current international benchmark in mathematics against which the Common Core Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) and other College and Career Ready Standards may be evaluated. The project will provide a window on the state of 21st century skills currently incorporated by countries into their curriculum in various ways. The project staff will lead the Mathematics Curriculum Document Analysis (MCDA) project. The specific questions to be addressed through the mathematics document-based analysis are: What are the topics and key concepts currently focused upon in mathematics standards (guidelines) across over 20 countries? What do mathematics curriculum documents - standards and textbooks - reveal about the current state of the focus, rigor, and coherence of the mathematics curriculum? What do mathematics curriculum documents - standards and textbooks - reveal about the coherent inclusion of 21st century skills expectations for students? To what extent are the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics reflected in or consistent with the current mathematics standards for leading countries, i.e., those whose students do well on international assessments such as TIMSS and PISA? The project will work with international partners to create a multidimensional framework for analysis of curriculum standards and conduct a multidimensional analysis of standards and textbooks in the US.

以前对数学和科学教育的国际研究为美国STEM教育的全球竞争力提供了重要的视角。在过去的20年里，世界，包括学校里的数学世界，在很多方面都发生了变化，特别是在与数学学科密切相关的技术领域。许多国家已经修订了他们的数学标准，目前，关于21世纪课程需要什么的问题继续推动着几乎每个国家的课程改革。在美国和其他国家的课程改革讨论中，学生在21世纪需要知道什么和能够做什么是核心问题。这些问题促使经济合作与发展组织（OECD）规划和制定了《教育2030国际课程分析》。该项目将利用参与经合组织《2030年教育课程分析》的发展机会，制定当前的国际数学基准，以评估数学共同核心标准（CCSSM）和其他大学和职业准备标准。该项目将提供一个窗口，了解目前各国以各种方式纳入其课程的21世纪技能状况。项目工作人员将领导数学课程文件分析（MCDA）项目。通过基于数学文件的分析要解决的具体问题是：20多个国家的数学标准（指南）目前关注的主题和关键概念是什么？数学课程文件——标准和教科书——揭示了数学课程的重点、严谨性和连贯性的现状？数学课程文件——标准和教科书——在连贯地包含对学生的21世纪技能期望方面揭示了什么？共同核心州数学标准在多大程度上反映了领先国家（即那些学生在TIMSS和PISA等国际评估中表现良好的国家）当前的数学标准，或与之一致？该项目将与国际伙伴合作，为课程标准分析创建一个多维框架，并对美国的标准和教科书进行多维分析。
