  7. PISA for Development Initial Technical Meeting

  8. 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 post-2015 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

  9. 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;

  10. Benefits of participation 2: good practices and peer learning Participants in PISA are exposed to world-class 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

  11. 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

  12. PISA for DevelopmentEnhancing 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

  13. PISA for DevelopmentHow 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?

  14. PISA for DevelopmentBenchmarking for improvement • Reading performance and national wealth in low income countries

  15. PISA for DevelopmentBenchmarking for improvement • Reading performance and national wealth
