Quality in learning outcomes
Science performance

Average performance of 15-year-olds in science – extrapolate and apply
High science performance Average performance of 15-year-olds in science – extrapolate and apply … 18 countries perform below this line Low science performance
5
Top and bottom performers in science
These students can consistently identify, explain and apply scientific knowledge, link different information sources and explanations and use evidence from these to justify decisions, demonstrate advanced scientific thinking in unfamiliar situations… These students often confuse key features of a scientific investigation, apply incorrect information, mix personal beliefs with facts in support of a position… Large proportion of top performers Large prop. of poor perf. 20
6
Top performers matter Excellence in education and countries’ research intensity

Money matters - but other things do too

Students attitudes to science and their awareness of the life opportunities science may open
