PISA 2022 Assessment & Analytical Framework
This publication presents the theory underlying the PISA 2022 assessment, and includes frameworks for assessing mathematics, the fourth assessment of students’ financial literacy, and the framework for assessing the innovative domain - creative thinking. It outlines the content knowledge that students need to acquire in each domain, the processes that students need to be able to perform, and the contexts in which this knowledge and these skills are applied.
