Outline of Final Research Achievements

Students’ achievement analysis based on large-scale assessment data in research for mathematics and science education development should be more focused on in the future. Analysis reveals that the higher the countries perform mathematics and science achievement based on the average score, the stronger the countries have the degree of linking between mathematics and science knowledge, and that the answer pattern of Japan does not have observable changes between PISA2003 and PISA2012 in whole.
