Huiming Ding; Innocent Tasara – Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability, 2024
The increasing concerns of the impact of the Programmes for International Student Assessment (PISA) on education policymaking along with its global reach call for the need of evaluating PISA's impact on student learning. However, most extant studies focus on arguing its impact at the policy level, without taking a further look into it at the local…

Tze, Virginia M. C.; Li, Johnson C.-H.; Daniels, Lia M. – Research Papers in Education, 2022
Although previous research showed that discrete social-emotional skills such as empathy, motivation, and social relationships in school significantly predict achievement, students tend to use various social-emotional skills in combination. As such previous investigations cannot comment on how different combinations or profiles of students'…

Aditomo, Anindito; Klieme, Eckhard – International Journal of Science Education, 2020
Inquiry-based science instruction is widely advocated, but studies based on international large-scale assessments often show inquiry to be negatively associated with achievement. We re-examine this issue by examining whether the association between inquiry and learning depends upon the provision of teacher guidance. Participants were 151,721…

He Sun; Yueguang Xie; Jari Lavonen – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Information and communications technology (ICT) is now widely used in education. However, the effect of ICT on the development of students' scientific higher-order thinking skills (S-HOTS) is a controversial issue in science education research. This has attracted significant attention from researchers worldwide in the field of educational…

Huang, Liang; Huang, Yating; Zhou, Shike – Educational Management Administration & Leadership, 2023
While principal leadership has been exercised in day-to-day practices to address the needs of teachers as professional learners, empirical studies regarding its effects on teacher professional learning have not increased proportionally. Using a sample of 255 secondary school principals and 2756 teachers from four provinces of Beijing, Shanghai,…

Yue Ma; Huilin Zhang; Li Ni; Da Zhou – International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2023
Understanding how individuals collaborate with others is a complex undertaking, because collaborative problem-solving (CPS) is an interactive and dynamic process. We attempt to identify distinct collaborative problem-solver profiles of Chinese 15-year-old students on a computer-based CPS task using process data from the 2015 Program for…

Avvisati, Francesco; Givord, Pauline – OECD Publishing, 2021
This paper quantifies the learning gain that accrues to 15-year-old students over one year of schooling in 18 countries and economies, where the cohort eligible to sit the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA)ISA test overlaps with two distinct school cohorts. School-entry regulations are used as an exogenous source of…

Tang, Hanwei; Qiu, Chen; Meng, Lingqi; Li, Yujia; Zhang, Jiangkun – SAGE Open, 2020
The present study aimed to investigate factors predicting inquiry-based teaching in science across One Belt One Road countries and regions (OBOR economies). Teacher-level (N = 8,603) and school-level (N = 1,385) data were drawn from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2015. Hierarchical linear modeling was adopted for data…

Tang, Shifang – Educational Research Quarterly, 2019
Collaborative problem-solving learning (CPS) is a critical and necessary instructional activity across educational and cultural settings, but its application in the classrooms and impact on students' learning are shaped by the culture it is blended in. By utilizing the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2015 Collaborative…

Komatsu, Hikaru; Rappleye, Jeremy – ECNU Review of Education, 2020
Purpose: Amidst ongoing attempts to think beyond Western frameworks for education, there is a tendency to overlook Japan, perhaps because it appears highly modern. This is striking given that some prominent strands of Japanese philosophy have formulated an explicit and exacting challenge to the core onto-epistemic premises of modern Western…
