PISA: Philippines Lowest in Reading Comprehension
Philippines lowest in reading comprehension among 79 countries
Ratziel San Juan (Philstar.com) - December 3, 2019 - 9:26pm
MANILA, Philippines — Among 79 participating countries and economies, the Philippines scored the lowest in reading comprehension in the 2018 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), according to the results released Tuesday.
PISA is a worldwide study by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development that examines students’ knowledge in reading, mathematics, and science.
Reading was the main subject assessed among 15-year old students in the 2018 PISA. The Philippines had an average reading score of 340, more than 200 points below China (555) and more than 100 points less than the OECD average (487).
“Reading proficiency is essential for a wide variety of human activities - from following instructions in a manual; to finding out the who, what, when, where, and why of an event; to communicating with others for a specific purpose or transaction,” the summary of the PISA 2018 results reads.

Save the Date: ASLP Summit 2020
AHEAD OF THE CURVE.
Our fast-paced global societies and continuous revolution of information economy behoove library and information professionals to become adaptive to practices while remaining tenacious of our principles.
Change is the only constant matter in the world. This inevitable challenge drives us to not only fit in with the current changes but to stand out and become our own standard. The essence of being ahead of the curve is to become the 'beyond' of what exists and the 'beacon' of the future generations.
ASLP invites you to this summit where librarians and information professionals can prepare for the imminent transformational changes catalyzed by the Fourth Industrial Revolution, 21st century challenges and the dominance of millennial generation. Specifically, the summit aims to:
(1) Discuss the competencies and skills needed in response to disruptive innovation particularly in the areas of collection development, service provision and infrastructures of libraries,
(2) Suggest novel and forward-looking concepts that ensure continued relevance and reinvention of libraries and information centers,
(3) Apprise the librarians and information professionals of the posed challenges in the future; and
(4) Provide an avenue where policy recommendations in dealing with these inevitable changes can be constructively discussed.
Join us as we explore the marvels of jazzing up our infrastructure, collection and services into one that is ahead of the curve. Sign up and download the program and invitation letter thru this link: bit.ly/ASLP2020Palawan
