This report presents the conceptual foundations of the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), now in its seventh cycle of comprehensive and rigorous international surveys of student knowledge, skills and well-being. Like previous cycles, the 2018 assessment covered reading, mathematics and science, with the major focus this cycle on reading literacy, plus an evaluation of students' global competence - their ability to understand and appreciate the perspectives and world views of others. Financial literacy was also offered as an optional assessment. The framework also includes the questionnaires distributed to students and school principals used to elicit information about student backgrounds and the school learning environment, as well as some questionnaires distributed to parents and teachers to assess factors associated with student outcomes. Students in some countries also completed further questionnaires on their educational trajectory, familiarity with information and communications technology, and well-being.

The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) examines what students know in reading, mathematics and science, and what they can do with what they know. It provides the most comprehensive and rigorous international assessment of student learning outcomes to date. Results from PISA indicate the quality and equity of learning outcomes attained around the world, and allow educators and policy makers to learn from the policies and practices applied in other countries. This is one of six volumes that present the results of the PISA 2018 survey, the seventh round of the triennial assessment. Volume III, What School Life Means for Students' Lives, focuses on the physical and emotional health of students, the role of teachers and parents in shaping the school climate, and the social life at school. The volume also examines indicators of student well-being, and how these are related to the school climate.

The first edition of Nel Noddings' Philosophy of Education was acclaimed as the 'best overview in the field' by the journal Teaching Philosophy and predicted to 'become the standard textbook in philosophy of education' by Educational Theory. This classic text, originally designed to give the education student a comprehensive look at philosophical thought in relation to teaching, learning, research, and educational policy, has now been updated to reflect the most current thinking in the field. A revised chapter on Logic and Critical Thinking makes the topic more accessible to students and examines how critical thinking plays a role in light of the new Common Core standards.Philosophy of Education introduces students to the evolution of educational thought, from the founding fathers to contemporary theorists, with consideration of both analytic and continental traditions. This is an essential text not only for teachers and future teachers, but also for anyone needing a survey of contemporary trends in philosophy of education.

Un tiers des docteurs diplômés tous les ans dans les universités françaises a obtenu un doctorat dans les disciplines relevant des sciences humaines et sociales. 47% des écoles doctorales s'inscrivent dans le domaine des SHS. Dans ce contexte, les membres de l'alliance Athéna ont souhaité apporter leur contribution à la réflexion générale sur le doctorat, avec une attention particulière pour la situation du doctorat en SHS. Les recommandations rassemblées dans le présent ouvrage se sont appuyées sur un rapport issu des travaux d'un collectif piloté par Maria Bonnafous-Boucher entre 2017 et 2019. Composé d'experts de divers horizons, ce groupe a posé les éléments du débat qui ont été repris au sein du directoire de l'alliance Athéna. En établissant ses propositions sur un ensemble de données qualitatives et quantitatives les plus récentes, l'alliance Athéna a l'ambition de faire apparaître mouvements communs et caractéristiques spécifiques aux grands domaines scientifiques avec le souci d'améliorer la situation du doctorat en SHS. Les enjeux sont autant ceux de sa consolidation que de son attractivité. Les propositions concernent les conditions d'études des doctorants comme le rôle que le cursus doctoral SHS a à jouer dans les perspectives scientifiques qui se dessinent.
