International Cooperative Study for Comparing Science Class

我们与IEA/TllVi-SS-R课堂录像研究合作，利用1999年和2000年采集的数百盘八年级科学课录像，对美国、日本等五个国家的科学课进行了分析和比较。本研究开发了一种独特的科学课录像分析方法，可用于教师教育和教学评估。制作了一张包含四个科学课例及其评课结果的光盘，以及与本研究相关的其他资源，用于教师教育的应用研究。在我们的报告中，我们还包括了IEA/TIMSS-R课堂录像带研究的信息，以及IEA/TIMSS课堂录像带研究的信息，该研究报告称，日本的数学课程在许多教学质量指标上处于相对较高的水平。光盘和研究报告中的所有信息均以日文和英文提供。我们将在12308007号科研资助研究项目中继续我们的研究，该项目更多地加强了教学录像在教师教育中的应用和科学教学的国际比较结果。

We did a study collaborated with the IEA/TllVi-SS-R classroom videotrape study that analyze and compare science lessons in five countries including USA and Japan by using hundreds of 8th grade sclence lesson vldeotapes taken In 1999 and 2000 In our study, a unique method of science lesson video analysis was developed that can be used for the pupose of teacher education and teaching evaluation. A CD-ROM which includes four science lesson video exarpples and their results of lesson evaluation as well as the other resources related to this study was made for applicational studies of teacher education. In our report, we also included inforrnation on the IEA/TIMSS-R classroom videotape study as well as the IEA/TIMSS classroom videotape study that reported Japanese mathematics lessons as colnparatively high level in many indices of teaching qllality. All the infounation in the CD-ROM and study report were provided in both Japanese and English. We will continue our study for a couple of years in the research project, Grant-in-Aid for scientific researc~ #12308007, which enhances more on the application of lesson videos in teacher education and on the results of international comparison of science teaching.
