Society
Ulaanbaatar/MONTSAME/. Mongolia is preparing to get involved
in the ‘PISA 2022’- Programme for International Student Assessment, in April
this year. In this regard, Minister of Education and Science L. Enkh-Amgalan
held an online meeting with the organizers.
PISA measures 15-year-olds’ ability to use their reading,
mathematics and science knowledge and skills to meet real-life challenges. PISA
test has been organized since 2000.
By getting involved in the PISA assessment, it is possible
to find out how 15-year-old Mongolian students have acquired key knowledge and
skills as compared with their peers in other countries. The findings will give valuable
insights for supporting learning and teaching activities, improving teaching
methods and allocating resources equally, in addition to knowing exactly what
to do to make up for lost opportunities due to COVID-19.
PISA test is taken every three years as it is deemed
appropriate term to identify the changes in the education system. Paper and
computer-based tests are conducted in two stages: experimental and basic.
