contents PROFILE OF CHILEAN ACHIEVEMENT IN THE TIMSS 1999 DATA REPRESENTATION SUB-SCALE María José Ramírez Educación grade 8 test results comparative education Mathematics achievement For the first time, Chile participated in IEA’s Trends in Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS 1999), testing a nationally representative sample of 5907 eighth graders, and collecting vast background information about the students, their teachers and their schools. This article analyzes student’s achievement in data representation, the sub-scale that showed the best relative math results for Chile. The effect of five item-related variables was analyzed: format, cognitive skill, sub-content area, curricular intentions, and curricular implementation. Conclusions indicate that the better performance in data representation can be mainly explained because of a "street mathematics" phenomenon combined with an item-format effect. 2002 artículo científico 0716-050X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=173513847005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1735 Estudios Pedagógicos application/pdf Universidad Austral de Chile Estudios Pedagógicos (Chile) Num.28
