PISA for Development
Initial Technical Meeting
Motivation for PISA for development
An ambition to make the benefits of
PISA available to a broader group of
countries
An opportunity to support the measurement of a post2015 education goal that is focused on learning quality
• An aim to enable all of the countries of the global
community to be on a single metric with regards to key
educational outcomes
8
Benefits of participation 1:
being part of ..............
• The international education community
that aims to improve student outcomes
globally through research;
• In-depth comparative analyses of factors
that are strongly related to student
outcomes;
• National and international debates about
how to improve student outcomes;
9
Benefits of participation 2: good
practices and peer learning
• Participants in PISA are exposed to worldclass assessments and rigorous international
standards.
• PISA allows countries to learn policy lessons
from other countries, particularly from those
that may share common challenges and
conditions, thereby facilitating peer learning
and the dissemination of good practices and
knowledge of what works to improve student
outcomes
10
Benefits of participation 3: policy/system
reform impacts
• Focus on student learning for policy
reforms
• Focus on teacher professional
development and training
• School leadership and school
autonomy
• Focus on standards that are congruent
and aligned
• Focus on student competencies and
skills beyond (curricular) content
11
PISA for Development
Enhancing the relevance and use of PISA
… in support of participating countries
Expected impact
Increased numbers of developing countries use
PISA assessments from 2016 onwards to:

Monitor progress towards national improvement
targets

Comparatively analyse factors associated with
student outcomes

For institutional capacity-building, and

For tracking international education targets within a
post-2015 framework
12
PISA for Development
How we arrived at this point – the journey
• So far, PISA has covered 74 countries, 28 of which are
developing countries (ODA recipients)
• Our experience so far:
•
Relevance of the PISA approach and assessment
•
Adherence to technical standards
•
Quality of technical implementation matches that of OECD countries
•
Full compliance with confidentiality requirements
• Some open issues
•
Match between student ability distribution and item difficulties
•
Relevance of context questionnaires
•
Out-of-school populations
• How far can we go with expanding PISA as we know it
geographically?

PISA for Development
Enhancing the relevance and use of PISA
• Aims: to enhance the policy relevance of
PISA for developing countries through:
– the development of enhanced PISA survey
instruments and data collection methods…..
– that are more relevant for the contexts found in
developing countries…..
– but which produce results on the same scales
as the main PISA assessment.
