Abstract

Este estudio utiliza el índice global de productividad de Malmquist-Luenberger para medir el desempeño de los sistemas educativos de 28 países participantes en el TIMSS 2007 y 2011 para el octavo grado de los estudiantes de educación básica en la disciplina de matemáticas. Esta metodología es especialmente apropiada tanto por sus propiedades deseables, así como por su adecuación al contexto educativo. Los resultados indican que los países participantes en el estudio no sólo eligieron diferentes caminos para mejorar su rendimiento educativo, sino que además, variaron notablemente entre ellos. Un resultado destacable es que el rendimiento educativo promedio se deterioró entre 2007 y 2011, aunque también se han identificado casos de éxito en varios países en la mejora de la igualdad.
