State-Based Network to Develop Science and Mathematics Indicators

制定更好的学前教育指标， 数学和科学可以而且应该建立在 各国更好地汇编和使用的责任和利益 关于教育的信息。 该项目承担了 通过与国家部门合作制定指标 教育分三个阶段。 本建议书旨在完成 第三国家-执行国家报告优先事项 科学/数学指标。 在第一年，与各州进行了一次清查， 以确定现在收集的关于维度的信息， 科学和数学教育的质量，使用一套理想的 从最近的研究和建议中确定的指标， 并应用数据收集穿梭过程来描述如何 每个国家都界定和收集信息。 在第二年，信息通过 根据理想指标和一组 国家“优先”指标由一项项目任务选定 力 该项目制定了一个共同的数据报告计划， 优先指标，并与每个国家合作， 用于报告状态数据的规范。 在第三年和第四年， 将与各州一起执行指标报告计划。 在第三年，30个已经准备好指标数据的州将 向CCSSO报告，其他州将收到技术报告。 协助发展其数据能力。 第四年，A 50-将全面实施国家指标报告计划。 在 此外，该项目还将从以下国家获得代表性数据： 关于其他优先科学/数学指标的国家调查。

Development of better indicators of precollege education in mathematics and science can, and should, build on the responsibility and interest of states to compile and use better information on education. This project undertakes the development of indicators through working with state departments of education in three stages. This proposal is to complete the Third State-implementation of state reporting of priority science/math indicators. In the first year, an inventory was conducted with the states to identify the information now collected on the dimensions and quality of science and math education, using a set of ideal indicators identified from recent studies and recommendations, and applying a data collection shuttle process to describe how each state defines and collects the information. In the second year, the information compiles through the inventory was analyzed against the ideal indicators and a set of "priority" indicators for states was selected by a project task force. The project developed a common data reporting plan for the priority indicators and worked with each state to define specifications for reporting state data. In the third and fourth years, being proposed, the indicators reporting plan will be implemented with the states. In year three, 30 states that have indicators data ready will report to CCSSO and the other states will receive technical assistance to develop their data capacity. In year four, a 50-state indicators reporting plan will be fully implemented. In addition, the project will obtain state representative data from national surveys on other priority science/math indicators.
