PISA: Programme for International Student Assessment. This is built by
the OCED: Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development.
PISA is a triennial international survey which aims to evaluate education systems worldwide by testing the skills and knowledge of 15-year-old students. To date, students representing more than 70 economies have participated in the assessment.
The objective of PISA is to know
if the students are prepared to act in the society. With these exams, experts
can evaluate different subjects like maths, science or language. Experts don´t
want that students are able to repeat the content but to resolve themselves their
real problems and use their knowledge to their life.
PISA wants to control if the
skills are being develop by the students. Then, it contrasts the results with
the other countries.
Some conclusions that PISA said
are that girls are better reading and boys better in maths.
In my opinion, PISA don´t value some
competences very important like: cooperation, responsibility, work in groups or
be critical. I think they are very important in education. If a student can understand
a text but no to work in groups, or for example not to be responsible or to be
always late… in the future this student will have some problems to find a job, to
have a family or to keep the friends.
I like this type of exam that
PISA makes:
