Which goals and standards guide science education across the  world? This first report of the Third International Mathematics and  Science Study (TIMSS) explores this question by examining the rich  data collected in the TIMSS Curriculum Analysis.   This is a study without precedent in scale or detail. It includes an  exhaustive, page-by-page inventory of science content and other  pedagogical characteristics collected from hundreds of textbooks and  curriculum guides from almost 50 countries. These data document many  important features of these countries' mathematics education  curricula.   The book examines important features of curriculum policy across the  TIMSS countries, especially the role of textbooks and curriculum  guides. It also portrays similarities and differences in science  curricula in the succession of objectives across grades. Additionally,  it details characteristics of the science curriculum as embodied in  textbooks and curriculum guides intended for select grades.   This book will be of interest to anyone concerned with science  education standards, curriculum policy, cross-national educational  comparisons, and science pedagogy.
