1. 1. Kan man räkna med PISA och TIMSS? : Relevansen hos internationella storskaliga mätningar i matematik i en nationell kontext

   Författare :Samuel Sollerman; Astrid Pettersson; Lovisa Sumpter; Christian Lundahl; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; International large-scale assessment; Mathematics; Validity; Validation; Relevance; Assessment; PISA; TIMSS; Mathematics education; matematikämnets didaktik; Mathematics Education;

   Sammanfattning : The overall purpose of the thesis is to contribute to the knowledge of relevance of international large-scale assessments (ILSAs) in mathematics, when these are to be used and interpreted in a national context. If a nation is to engage in ILSAs, draw conclusions from them and act on them, one should be aware of what they are measuring and how well it fits in with the national mathematics education and the mathematics they are trying to teach their students.
