International Cooperative Study for Comparing Science Class

本研究与IEA/TllVi-SS-R课堂录像研究合作，对美国、日本等5个国家1999年和2000年拍摄的数百盘8年级科学课录像进行了分析和比较，并提出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价。本研究制作了一个光盘，其中包括四个科学课视频范例和它们的课程评价结果，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IEA/TIMSS-R课堂录像带研究以及IEA/TIMSS课堂录像带研究的信息，这些研究报告了日本数学课在许多教学质量指标中的相对高水平。CD-ROM和研究报告中的所有信息均以日语和英语提供。我们将继续我们的研究在研究项目，补助金的科学研究~ #12308007，这加强了更多的课程视频在教师教育中的应用和科学教学的国际比较的结果几年。

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.
