#PISA is not intended to rank countries, since education has many dimensions, it's impossible to extract them into one number, let alone comparing among countries. That's not #pisa2018 for.
Participating countries can use #PISA to diagnose their deficiency of their education systems. This is more important and makes more sense than ranking countries. The ranking makes good stories for media, but it's not the whole stories.
The ranking in #PISA is useless. Read deeper into finding which part of competence is lacking is more beneficial.
Once again, media all over the world misunderstood the purpose of #PISA.
How could one compare Singaporean education system which is smaller than South Jakarta district with Indonesia as a whole? It's impossible. Even China doesn't let all regional educational systems participate in #PISA2018
PISA is useful, but not for ranking countries.
It's impossible to know the deficiencies of our education system from the ranking. So, how could one fix the problems in education from the country ranking? The ranking is useless. #PISA should stop highlighting this ranking.
The #PISA2018 ranking fails to tell us the success stories and huge challenges facing "gigantic" countries like Indonesia, India, Brazil, China, USA.
