| RESEARCH LLRI engages in a variety of research projects, all motivated by problems of education. Some LLRI projects are funded by foundations and government agencies (e.g., LLRI currently has grants from the U.S. Department of Education Institute for Education Sciences and from the National Science Foundation). Other projects are internally funded, by LessonLab, and are designed to inform the development and improvement of LessonLab's programs for teacher learning and school improvement. All projects are designed and conducted by LessonLab's research scientists, in collaboration with researchers around the globe. In addition, LessonLab is the hub of a growing network of independent researchers doing research on the improvement of teaching and learning in classrooms: the LessonLab Research Network. We invite you to explore these projects, and the work of affiliated members of the LessonLab Research Network. And, check out our largest and most recently completed project: the TIMSS 1999 Video Study of mathematics and science teaching in seven countries. TIMSS “Trends in International Mathematics & Science Study” - A cross-national study of eighth-grade classroom mathematics and science teaching. The study involves videotaping and analyzing teaching practices in more than one thousand classrooms in various countries. In conjunction with the International Association of the Evaluation of Education Achievement (IEA), the study is being conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Department of Education under a contract with LessonLab, Inc. of Los Angeles, California.
