The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) is an internationally standardised assessment that was jointly developed by participating countries and administered to 15-year-olds in schools. PISA assesses how far students near the end of compulsory education have acquired some of the knowledge and skills that are essential for full participation in society. In all cycles, the domains of reading, mathematical and scientific literacy are covered not merely in terms of mastery of the school curriculum, but in terms of important knowledge and skills needed in adult life.

OBS

PISA est une enquête menée tous les trois ans auprès de jeunes de 15 ans dans les 30 pays membres de l’OCDE et dans les 27 pays partenaires. Elle évalue l’acquisition de savoirs et savoir-faire essentiels à la vie quotidienne au terme de la scolarité obligatoire. Les tests portent sur la lecture, la culture mathématique et la culture scientifique et se présentent sous la forme d’un questionnaire de fond. Pour chaque cycle, un sujet est privilégié par rapport aux autres. Les premières collectes de données ont eu lieu en 2000, les suivantes en 2003 et en 2006.
