To meet the national standards of 108 mathematics curriculum stan¬dards, the aim of the study is to fulfill the authentic assessment to explore primary students’ performance on the concept of time. The advantage of authentic assessment is to connect with life context beyond school. Total 283 participants were from 93 fourth graders, 95 fifth graders, and 95 sixth graders. Students were sampled from one elementary school in Taoyuan city. For the quantitative methodology, the ordinal logit related models were applied to analyze the response rate for the three items. The qualitative methodology was adopted to analyze solving strategies of stu¬dents in different questions by the four levels of coding criteria. The re¬sults of the ordinal logit related models reveal that fourth to sixth grade levels show similar results in item 1, but response rates are diverse in item 2 and item 3 from fourth to sixth grades. The results of item 2 and item 3 indicate that students’ performances are better while their grade levels are higher. Three suggestions are recommended in education fields. Firstly, to meet the trend of mathematics literacy, primary teachers should design the real-life situation into mathematics lessons. As a second, based upon the nature of data, it is crucial to take advantage of the proper statistical model, such as the ordinal logit related models. Finally, multiple scores systems indicated the different performance of students in the cognition of time concept. |
