註釋"A report released on Tuesday by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) reveals the mathematics and reading skills of Australian 15-year-olds have slipped backwards over the past decade. Releasing the report, PISA 2012: How Australia measures up, ACER's Director of Educational Monitoring and Research, Dr Sue Thomson said, "Despite still performing above the OECD average, Australia's backwards slide in achievement shows that there is some cause for concern." The 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) managed by ACER for the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) measured how well 15-year-olds from across the globe are prepared to use their knowledge and skills in mathematics, reading and science to meet real-life challenges. A combined total of more than half a million students from 65 countries and economies took part in PISA 2012, including a nationally representative sample of around 14 500 Australian students from 775 schools. Australia has now participated in all five cycles of PISA since its inception in 2000. Comparing results internationally, Dr Thomson said that Australia performed equal 17th in mathematics, equal 8th in science and equal 10th in reading, after accounting for insignificant differences between countries and economies"--Media release.
