PISA Problem Solving for Tomorrow's World First Measures of Cross-Curricular Competencies from PISA 2003

This book examines the results of the special portion of the 2003 PISA survey of student achievement that relates to problem-solving skills. Covering 40 countries (Australia; Austria; Belgium; Canada; Czech Republic; Denmark; Finland; France; Germany; Greece; Hungary; Iceland; Ireland; Italy; Japan; Republic of (South) Korea; Luxembourg; Mexico; Netherlands; New Zealand; Norway; Poland; Portugal; Slovak Republic; Spain; Sweden; Switzerland; Turkey; United Kingdom; United States; Brazil, Hong Kong-China, Indonesia, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Macao-China, Russian Federation, Serbia, Thailand, Tunisia, Uruguay), it provides, for the first time, a direct assessment of life competencies that apply across different areas of the school curriculum. The assessment looked at students abilities to identify problems in various settings, to choose relevant information or constraints, to represent possible alternatives or solution paths, to develop solution strategies, to solve the problem, and to communicate the solution. This report examines how countries can raise their performance in this competency area and what countries with lower performance levels can learn from those whose students do well. It also provides insights into some of the factors that are associated with the development of problem-solving skills and into how these factors interact and what the implications are for policy development. Finally, the report sheds light on countries that succeed in achieving high performance levels while at the same time providing an equitable distribution of learning opportunities.--Publisher description.

  • "All stakeholders - parents, students, those who teach and run education systems as well as the general public - need to be informed on how well their education systems prepare students for life. Knowledge and skills in school subjects such as languages, mathematics and science are an essential foundation for this but a much wider range of competencies is needed for students to be well prepared for the future. Problem-solving skills, i.e. the capacity of students to understand problems situated in novel and cross-curricular settings, to identify relevant information or constraints, to represent possible alternatives or solution paths, to develop solution strategies, and to solve problems and communicate the solutions, are an example of this wider range of competencies. The 2003 assessment of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's (OECD) Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) included an assessment of students' problem-solving skills, providing for the first time a direct assessment of life competencies that apply across different areas of the school curriculum."
