Do you have source on this, since I cannot recall any standardized assesments which would have been done nation wide in Finland on 8th grade.

- dventimi 13y agoUnfortunately, the best I can do is provide a link to the TIMSS Data Explorer (click the link for "TIMSS IDE"): http://nces.ed.gov/surveys/international/ide/ http://nces.ed.gov/surveys/international/ide/ After agreeing to the terms, you can choose: 1. Subject matter (I chose math) 2. Grade (I chose 8th) 3. Jurisdiction (U.S., Finland, Massachusetts, etc.) 4. Variable (ethnicity, income, etc.) 5. Years (not every year has data for every variable) Not every combination of year, jurisdiction, and variable has data (e.g., Finland doesn't seem to disaggregate by race). When I built the report for Finland, it included a caveat about issues that "interfere with proper trend analysis", presumably by year, so I avoided that.
