The Program for International Student Assessments (PISA) is an international assessment of 15-year-olds which
focuses on assessing students’ science, mathematics, and reading literacy. PISA was first administered in 2000 and is
conducted every three years. This submission is for the sixth cycle in the series, PISA 2015. As in 2006, in PISA 2015,
science will be the major subject domain. PISA 2015 also includes computer-based assessments in reading,
mathematics, collaborative problem solving, and financial literacy. In addition to the cognitive assessments PISA 2015
includes questionnaires administered to assessed students, school principals, and teachers. The U.S. PISA main study
will be conducted from September through November 2015. The PISA 2015 Field Test and Recruitment for Field Test
and Main Study were originally approved in August 2013 (1850-0755 v.14). This request updates the recruitment
materials for the 2015 main study.
