They will also tackle a new andcontroversial series of questions designed to measure “collaborative problem solving skills.” Instead of short-answerquestions, the test taker will record outcomes of games, solve jigsaw puzzles and perform experiments with the help of avirtual partner that the test taker can communicate with by typing in a chat box. Although the new test domain is stillexperimental, PISA officials believe the results from these novel problems will push governments to better equip their youngpeople to thrive in the global economy.ction.”   Since the PISA exam was first rolled out in 2000, it has measured a student’s ability to use reading, math and science inreal-life settings. The PISA rankings became a flashpoint for policy makers concerned about international competitiveness.Three years ago the PISA exam decided to add questions that were supposed to ferret out the problem-solving abilities of15-year-olds around the globe. (PISA says Chinese students are good problem solvers. Israelis, not so much. Americans fallsomewhere in the middle.) The test framers believe that the global economy today and in the future requires an even morespecific set of skills—group problem solving mediated by the Internet. This year PISA will have students in 51 countries putcollaborative problem solving under the microscope.    Given the pace of technological innovation, schools must adapt, and the new domain gives schools a road map to do that,says Jenny Bradshaw, senior PISA project manager, who oversees the test: “Working with unseen partners, especially online,will become a bedrock skill for career success. Increasingly, this is the way the workplace and the world will function.”
