国际学生评估方案(PISA)已成为经济合作与发展组织(OECD)教育工作的一个重要和有影响力的组成部分。这种对成员国和其他国家教育体系的比较表现的衡量是基于经合组织委托进行的测试。本文讨论了OECD在建立“比较”转向中的作用，并介绍了PISA及其管理和效果。它提供了PISA在芬兰、德国和英国的影响的三个例子，然后将重点转移到其在跨国层面的影响，通过审查欧洲主要政策参与者如何看待PISA及其影响。论文的结论是，PISA通过对欧洲和其他地区的国家教育系统的直接影响，已经成为通过数字统治欧洲教育空间的新政治技术的间接但有影响力的工具。
This paper examines the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), which has become a major and influential component of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development's (OECD) educational work. This measure of comparative performance of educational systems of member and other nations is based on tests commissioned by the OECD. The paper discusses the role of the OECD in establishing the 'comparative' turn and also describes PISA, its management and effects. It provides three examples of the impact of PISA in Finland, Germany and the UK before moving the focus to its impacts at the transnational level, through an examination of how key European policy actors see PISA and its effects. The paper concludes that PISA, through its direct impact on national education systems in Europe and beyond, has become an indirect, but nonetheless influential tool of the new political technology of governing the European education space by numbers.
