Where immigrant students succeed - a comparative review of performance and engagement in PISA 2003 - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Drawing on data from the OECD's Programme for International Students Assessment (PISA) 2003 assessment, this report examines the performance of students with immigrant backgrounds in 17 OECD countries compared to that of their native counterparts. As well as providing information on countries' policy approaches to the integration of immigrants, it looks at other factors that could influence immigrant students' performance, such as attitudes to school, motivation and learning strategies, social background and the language spoken at home. Overall, the report shows that immigrant students are motivated learners and have positive attitudes towards education and learning, but despite this strong learning disposition they often perform at significantly lower levels than their native peers in key school subjects, such as mathematics, science and reading.
