International Educational Achievement Association - General Assembly Meeting

该项目得到了教育部的跨部门协议的支持。它被授予哥伦比亚师范学院主办1987年国际教育成就评估协会（IEA）大会。国际能源署是一个非营利性的国际教育研究协会，对学生在大学预科阶段各学科的成绩进行多国研究。美国是国际能源机构的创始成员国之一，几乎参与了其所有的研究。国际能源机构的研究结果为美国的教育工作者和决策者提供了重要的资料。国际能源机构大会年会是就将进行哪些研究、这些研究的性质以及审查目前的工作和进行组织事务作出关键决定的地方。各国轮流主办国际能源署大会会议。最近的会议在新西兰、新加坡和荷兰举行。美国上一次主办国际能源署大会是在1973年。由于美国自成立以来一直是国际能源署的重要成员，主办国际能源署大会是对该组织表示支持的一种方式。此外，通过在美国举办会议，美国的教育工作者、研究人员和政策制定者将有可能直接为该组织的工作做出贡献。

This project is supported by an interagency agreement with the Department of Education. It is awarded to Columbia Teachers College to host the 1987 General Assembly meeting of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA). IEA is a non-profit international educational research association that conducts multi-national studies of precollegiate achievement of students in various school subjects. The United States is one of the founding members of IEA and has participated in virtually all of its studies. The results of IEA studies have furnished important information to educators and policy-makers in the United States. The annual meeting of the General Assembly of IEA is where key decisions are made with regard to what studies will be undertaken, the nature of such studies, as well as to review current work and conduct organizational business. Countries take turns hosting IEA General Assembly meetings. Recent meetings have been held in New Zealand, Singapore, and the Netherlands. The United States last hosted an IEA General Assembly meeting in 1973. Since the United States has been a key member of IEA since its inception, hosting an IEA General Assembly meeting is one way of showing support for the organization. Also, by hosting a meeting in the United States, it will be possible for U.S. educators, researchers, and policy-makers to directly contribute to the work of the organization.
