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.
