Abstract
"The IEA Second International Mathematics Study included the “Population B” survey for mathematics specialist students at the end of secondary school. Here are scans of the test instruments and questionnaires from that study. For the most part, they are the Ontario, Canada versions as prepared by Les McLean and his team. The questionnaires have some questions specific to the Ontario context, but they otherwise follow the international standard. aaareadme.pdf: This documentation file. BTests.pdf: The cognitive tests (preceded by a page of student instructions and the answer sheet). There are eight forms of 17 items each. BSchoolQuestionnaire.pdf, BStudentQuestionnaire.pdf, BTeacherQuestionnaire.pdf: The questionnaires for the school principal, the student, and the mathematics teacher. BCP1Calculus.pdf, BCP2AnalyticGeometry.pdf, BCP3Trigonometry.pdf, BCP4SeniorMathematics.pdf: Classroom process questionnaires that were to be filled out by mathematics teachers during the course of the school year. BOTLForm1.pdf, BOTLSpecial.pdf: Opportunity to Learn questionnaire. The version for Form 1, relative to questions in cognitive test 1, is given. There were similar questionnaires for forms 2-8. Note: there are two versions of each file. One is the original scan and the other (with the word ""searchable"" at the end of the description) has been run through Object Character Recognition (OCR) to make it searchable."
