I check'd PISA questions (bc I have 0 knowledge of it) and it's pretty nice, just how will this be implemented? Because the way the question is written, if one wants students to score high I think the whole education process has to be changed... e.g. pic. +
This question needs children to /find/ a formula instead of /using/ a memorized formula. They have to have a firm grasp on basic math, the concept of pay, time, etc.
Which is good, that's what we want (and that's how other countries teach their children too.) +

But then we come to realize that the point is not only in changing the test, but also dispelling myths in teachers' head (e.g. teaching has to be one-sided, as long as the child could answer questions it's already deemed as success, etc) that's still permeating our edu scene.
Bonus, I really love questions like these. I really don't think I've ever had questions like these in my years of studying... also imagine the educational process that could be done to teach children about this. It reminded me of thr lecture I listened the other day about +
Reggio-Emilia method of teaching (letting children explore a certain thrme (e.g. rocks, light) by doing anything and everything they want with it, touching, weighing, asking questions, etc). It helps the child's critical thinking grows, and +
teaches them to look for information themselves instead of relying on other people. It also makes the entire process of studying fun.
I know Reggio-Emilia is for kindergarten but gosh damn imagine an elementary school like this. I'd want to repeat the grade (jk)

But back to topic, the entire takeaway of this thread is: I think this is a good change - but then a change in test questions reflects nothing if we don't upgrade the method of teaching too. I'm pretty hyped for this though, got to continue watching the development :-)
Lastly, the questions screenshots are from OECD sample test.
