Summary: | This paper contains three volumes
presenting the Vietnam Reading and Mathematics Assessment
Study conducted in 2001. The first volume sets the study in
its country context, describes its genesis, outlines the
methodology, and summarizes the results. The main purpose is
to show how the analysis of the study results points to
specific policy interventions. The strong link between a
teacher's subject knowledge, and the performance of her
pupils argues for teacher upgrade programs, while the high
variation of pupil performance between schools in the same
province calls for local programs that improve school
effectiveness. The first volume is followed by a second
volume detailing the study results, and a third providing a
full description of the study methodology. |
