PISA is used to support private tutoring

[tutored @tutoredsite]

Studies have indicated that for each hour of private tutoring that students receive it will translate to an extra 12 to 15 points on the PISA math knowledge exam.

PISA should not be used to link educational outcomes and child poverty

#UsesOfPISA

[Christopher Tienken @ChrisTienken]

@UsesOfPISA Thats great but the way @OECD & #PISA report ranks is misleading & does not take into account things like Simpson's Paradox and selection bias or other sampling issues. In order 2 compare 2 things they must be comparable. #StatisticalSnookering ala Bracey.

#UsesOfPISA

[Christopher Tienken @ChrisTienken]

Once again, 4 those who missed it: 42% of US #PISA2018 score explained by poverty. Reduce child poverty from current 21% to 10% or less (like most of the industrialized world) & US move 2top of rankings. @MornaMcDermott #PISA2018 @CNN @MSNBC @nytimes #edchat #PISA #suptchat

The PISA is misused.

#UsesOfPISA

[Matt Barnum @matt_barnum]

We need to (belatedly) talk about PISA reporting — there were way too claims/headlines that were misleading. Suggesting that the U.S. is clearly below average when in fact American students are above average in reading science.

Shocker. Ok, for the last time. US tests IN NO WAY resemble the depth of critical thinking required by the PISA. Until you hang Pearson out to dry, @usdoe this won't change.‘It Just Isn’t Working’: PISA Test Scores Cast Doubt on U.S. Education Efforts https://t.co/Z9tR4d1xT8
