The Program for International Student
Assessments (PISA) is an international assessment of 15-year-olds,
which focuses on assessing students’ reading, mathematics, and
science literacy. PISA was first administered in 2000 and is
typically conducted every three years. The United States has
participated in all of the previous cycles and planned to
participate in 2021 in order to track trends and to compare the
performance of U.S. students with that of students in other
education systems. PISA is sponsored by the Organization for
Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). In the United States,
PISA is conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics
(NCES), within the U.S. Department of Education. In each
administration of PISA, one of the subject areas (reading,
mathematics, or science literacy) is the major domain and has the
broadest content coverage, while the other two subjects are the
minor domains. PISA emphasizes functional skills that students have
acquired as they near the end of mandatory schooling (aged 15
years), and students’ knowledge and skills gained both in and out
of school environments. The next administration of PISA will focus
on mathematics literacy as the major domain. Reading and science
literacy will also be assessed as minor domains, with additional
assessment of financial literacy. In addition to the cognitive
assessments described above, PISA 2022 will include questionnaires
administered to school principals and assessed students. To prepare
for the main study, PISA countries will conduct a field test in the
spring of the year previous, primarily to evaluate newly developed
assessment and questionnaire items but also to test the assessment
operations. The request to conduct PISA 2021 main study recruitment
and field test was approved in December 2019 (OMB# 1850-0755
v.23-24). This request: (1) updates the package to reflect all of
the changes made to respond to the global coronavirus pandemic,
including delaying the field test that was previously scheduled for
2020 to 2021 and the main study data collection to 2022; (2)
updates the field test recruitment materials and student video; (3)
adds COVID-19 protocols; (4) replaces the state, district and
school letters for the 2021 field test and 2022 main study; and (5)
adds coronavirus pandemic-related items in the school and student
questionnaires.
