<br/><br/> IEA, the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement, has conducted so far three international comparative studies of student achievement in mathematics and sciences. The third TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) assessed eighth-grade and fourth-grade students in both mathematics and science. This round of testing is known as TIMSS 2003. Forty eight countries participated in TIMSS 2003 of which nine were Arab countries. Nine Arab countries have participated in TIMSS at one time or another. Of the nine countries that participated in TIMSS 2003, eight participated at the eighth grade and three at the fourth grade. The purpose of the present study is to identify and compare the effect of student level variable, teacher-level variables and school-level variables on each of mathematics and science achievement of Grade 8 students in the eight Arab countries which participated in TIMSS 2003.
