Developing literacy skills in a digital world
Webinar Description:
Literacy in the 21st century is about constructing and validating knowledge. The massive information flow of the digital era demands that readers be able to distinguish between fact and opinion, and detect biased information and malicious content like fake news and phishing emails.
The computerised administration of PISA 2018 provides a better understanding of how students navigate through multiple text sources to search for and locate relevant information, and how students evaluate the credibility of information sources.
Join the PISA team and leading experts in the field for an in-depth research-focused webinar on the analysis of process (or log) data in PISA 2018 used to illustrate how students navigate through the emerging aspects of reading, such as multiple-source items. The discussion will then point out directions to improve educational measurement in the context of international large-scale assessments to better inform evidence-based policy making.
Join Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills, as he presents the latest findings from PISA 2018, published in the upcoming report 21st-Century Readers: Developing Literacy Skills in a Digital World.
