International Mathematics Assessment
An International Mathematics Assessment is a standardized test designed to evaluate the mathematical skills and knowledge of students across different countries. These assessments help educators and policymakers understand how students perform in mathematics compared to their peers globally. They often focus on problem-solving, reasoning, and the application of mathematical concepts.
One well-known example of such an assessment is the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), which tests 15-year-olds every three years. The results provide valuable insights into educational systems and highlight areas for improvement, helping countries enhance their mathematics education strategies.
