Description
This is a consolidated report of a symposium, seminar and public lecture presented by Professor Andreas Schleicher held from 1 to 3 November 2011 in conjunction with his appointment as our 6th CJ Koh Professor. He drew out implications from the 2009 PISA results for education reform and teacher policies in our bid to equip our students with skills for the 21st century. This issue also includes three thoughtful insights by Professor Schleicher on his visit to Singapore, Professor Wing On Lee on “PISA fever”, and Professor Sing Kong Lee on Singapore’s educational success.
