Prior to his current appointment, he was at the University of New England in Australia for 11 years. He has been researching OECD and PISA for more than a decade. More about this series: Over the last 20 years, the influence of international large-scale assessments (ILSAs) has grown dramatically, particularly with the rise of the OECD’s PISA, and the establishment of ILSA techniques and comparisons as a global policy force aiming to put an end to ‘learning poverty’. But COVID-19 has upended everything, including the ways that we view the future of education. What is the relevance of international comparisons in a post-COVID world? How are pandemic conditions affecting confidence in the predictive power of statistical data and the practical work and organisation of ILSAs in future assessment rounds? Is thinking and planning at a global scale feasible or desirable? How useful do international comparative measures look when set alongside the local contexts and geographies that are reasserting themselves: economic inequalities, social divisions and local educational practices that interact with pandemic effects? In this webinar series, the Laboratory of International Assessment Studies<http://international-assessments.org/>g/>, together with Deakin University’s strategic research centre Research for Educational Impact (REDI<http://deakin.edu.au/redi>) and Manchester Metropolitan University’s Education and Social Research Institute (ESRI<https://www.mmu.ac.uk/esri/>), engages in conversations with leading experts in the field to explore these and other questions in a series of discussions about how international assessments may change as a result of pandemic conditions and priorities.
