PISA 2015 Collaborative Problem Solving Skills

Top-performing countries in PISA, like Japan, Korea and Singapore in Asia, Estonia and Finland in Europe, and Canada in North America, also come out on top in the PISA assessment of collaborative problem solving.

Some 125,000 15-year-olds in 52 countries and economies took part in the test, which analyses for the first time how well students work together as a group, their attitudes towards collaboration and the influence of factors such as gender, after-school activities and social background.

>“In a world that places a growing premium on social skills, education systems need to do much better at fostering those skills systematically across the school curriculum,” said OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría Treviño.
>“Parents and society at large must play their part too. It takes collaboration across a community to develop better skills for better lives.”

Girls are much better than boys at working together to solve problems

Students who have stronger reading or maths skills tend to be better at collaborative problem-solving because managing and interpreting information, and the ability to reason, are required to solve problems. The same is true across countries.

However, students in Australia, Japan, Korea, New Zealand and the United States perform better in collaborative problem solving than would be expected based on their scores in science, reading and mathematics. But students in the four Chinese provinces that took part in PISA (Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Guangdong) do less well compared to their results in mathematics and science.

Distribution

Girls do better than boys in every country and economy that took the test, by the equivalent of half a year’s schooling on average (29 points). On average across OECD countries, girls are 1.6 times more likely than boys to be top performers in collaborative problem solving, while boys are 1.6 times more likely than girls to be low achievers. This is in sharp contrast to the findings of the 2012 individual problem-solving test which found that boys performed better than girls.

Students who attend physical education lessons or play sports generally have a more positive attitude towards collaboration. However, students who play video games outside of school score slightly lower in collaborative problem solving than students who do not play video games, on average across OECD countries. On the other hand, students who access the Internet or social networks outside of school score slightly higher than other students

once again china only uses its best cities
why are they allowed to do that

China is a bloody big country, it is not feasible yet to carry out an assessment to all People's Republic of China, but China is expected to participate as a whole unit in PISA 2024 or 2021.
Regarding Hong Kong and Macau see: youtube.com/watch?v=piEayQ0T-qA and youtube.com/watch?v=4AivEQmfPpk

And yes, if a country is not well equiped to carry out an international large scale assessment like PISA and meet their strict technical standards, regions of that country can participate on their own, this was indeed the case in China in 2009 and 2012 when only the municipality of Shanghai participated and in 2015 when the municipalities of Beijing and Shanghai as well as the provinces of Jiansu and Guandong participated as one unit, but other countries also have taken the decision to better carry the assesement to one of their administrative regions instead of the whole country, like the state of Miranda in Venezuela, the emirate of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates and the states of Himachal Pradesh and Tamil Nadu in India in 2009 or the City of Baku in Azerbaijan in 2018 (even though the country of Azerbaijan participated in PISA 2006 and 2009)
