PISA 2018 Results (Volume III)
What School Life Means for Students’ Lives
The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) examines what students know in reading, mathematics and science, and what they can do with what they know. It provides the most comprehensive and rigorous international assessment of student learning outcomes to date. Results from PISA indicate the quality and equity of learning outcomes attained around the world, and allow educators and policy makers to learn from the policies and practices applied in other countries. This is one of six volumes that present the results of the PISA 2018 survey, the seventh round of the triennial assessment. Volume III, What School Life Means for Students’ Lives, focuses on the physical and emotional health of students, the role of teachers and parents in shaping the school climate, and the social life at school. The volume also examines indicators of student well-being, and how these are related to the school climate.
Growth mindset
This chapter examines differences across countries and economies in students’ belief in a growth mindset, and how this belief varies with student and school characteristics. The chapter also looks at the relationship between holding a growth mindset, and students’ attitudes, academic achievement and expectations of further education.
