Análise de desempenho no Pisa dos estudantes no Brasil

Abstract

This paper analyzes the Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa), which in Portuguese means International Student Assessment Program. Specifically, it seeks to make connections between the low performance of Brazilian students and that of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. The years 2000 to 2022 are covered, and it is found that the average performance in the country, in general, remains unchanged over the years. The low performance of Brazilian students in the subjects of reading, mathematics and science has various causes, such as students being behind in school, flaws in education systems, socio-economic and cultural inequalities present in the country, low student motivation, the relationship between teachers and students, reduced investment in school infrastructure, experience in school management and a very limited socio-economic background. Parents' attention to their children, time spent studying at home and the educational level of those responsible are also relevant. Monitoring, diagnosing, planning, defining and making interventions are essential in carrying out strategies to formulate public policies to improve education.
