Internationell kunskapsmätning för nationell bedömning : Kan PISA-testerna användas för att bedöma svensk skola?

The purpose of this essay in the social sciences is to investigate whether the international PISAtests can be used to assess the Swedish education system. This is done with the help of a literature study. A survey and compilation have been made of a selection of articles in the subject. An analysis has been made with the help of an ontological approach based on knowledge construction as well as a theoretical framework around evaluation as control, the results are discussed to nuance the answer to the question. With a critical view, the discussion wants to nuance the use of the test as a basis for assessing the Swedish education system. The conclusion is that PISA is a powerful tool for assessing education systems, but as with all tools, it needs to be used properly. If PISA is to be used to assess Swedish school, it is valuable to be aware of strengths and weaknesses and with a unified picture from several evaluation and assessment tools.
