With reports of declining enrolments in mathematics related degrees and low female participation rates in these degrees, the issue of gender differences in mathematics remains relevant. Results of recent studies suggest gender differences in mathematics are nuanced and that small differences in the early years can manifest as larger differences in later years. This study explores differences in teachers' ratings of children's achievement across a number of mathematical content domains. It is based on observations from the K-cohort of the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children in 2006, when the children were aged between six and seven, and in 2008, when they were aged between eight and nine. Gender differences in achievement are analysed using the Mantel-Haenszel procedure associated with the implementation of the Rasch model. Results indicate that teachers rate girls higher on tasks related to data, whereas they rate boys higher on tasks related to place-value and computation. Implications of these findings are discussed.

THE REAL WORLD OF MATHEMATICS, SCIENCE, AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION In this Preface, I would like to focus on what I mean by “education” and speak about the models and metaphors that are used when people talk, write, and act in the domain of education. We need to look at the assu- tions and processes that the models and metaphors implicitly and explicitly contain. I feel we should explore whether there is a specific thrust to mat- matics education in the here and now, and be very practical about it. For me education is the enhancement of knowledge and understanding, and there is a strong and unbreakable link between the two. There seems l- tle point in acquiring knowledge without understanding its meaning. Nor is it enough to gain a deep understanding of problems without gaining the appropriate knowledge to work for their solution. Thus knowledge and understanding are each necessary conditions for the process of education, but only when they are linked will the process bear fruit. Only in the b- anced interplay of knowledge and understanding can we expect to achieve genuine education.

The United States is currently underperforming in mathematics and technology. Many studies have shown differences gender differences for specific learning styles and achievement in math. Other factors, such as math self-concept and societal stereotypes also effect male and female interest and progress in math learning. Additionally, studies have indicated that instructional strategies using manipulatives and targeting spatial ability have improved the math learning of both males and females, specifically in the elementary years. The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether students' gender impacts their math achievement in a Geometry unit, when instruction is designed to tie concrete manipulatives tools to abstract math concepts. vi Sources of Data The research was conducted at a K-6 public school in a suburban area in Yolo County. The subjects included 32 fourth graders with diverse backgrounds from one classroom. The students consisted of 21 boys and 11 girls. All students were given the same instruction, practice and assessment during the Geometry unit. Instruction consisted of manipulatives-based strategies, including model building and manipulatives sorts where students identified and classified shapes based on their characteristics. All participants completed a pre-test, post-test, and post-post-test to analyze the mean growth differences for males and females. Conclusions Reached The data indicated that there was a significant difference in the mean growth for male and female students from the pre-test to post-test in their overall test scores. Male participants had a greater mean score growth for the pre-test to post-test in their composite score. An additional finding was also significant, indicating that females' mean growth from post-test to post-post-test was greater for both the composite score and open-ended question portion of the test.
