If you have already taken World Class Maths: Asian teaching methods, you may remember that many countries take part in a series of assessments in maths and science for students in Grades 4 and 8, called Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS).
It is conducted every four years by the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA). The two most recent studies are from 2011 and 2015.
