International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) is an association of national research institutions and government research agencies related to education. The IEA is an independent organization. It was founded in 1958 and is headquartered in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Many policy-making decisions made in the field of education are influenced by IEA studies.
The focus of the IEA is to conduct research studies of student performance in basic subjects such as math, science, and reading. The IEA studies measure performance between students of different countries and whether certain policies in a particular educational system cause positive or negative effects on learning.
