September 14, 2012—The ÷ÈÓ°Ö±²¥ 2011 Encyclopedia provides an overview of the national contexts for mathematics and science education in the countries participating in ÷ÈÓ°Ö±²¥ 2011. Nearly all of the ÷ÈÓ°Ö±²¥ 2011 countries and benchmarking participants prepared a chapter summarizing the structure of their education systems, mathematics and science curricula and instruction in primary and secondary grades, teacher education requirements, and assessment practices.
