In this episode, Scott and Ollie talk about the international STEM education and what we can learn (if anything) from the assessment-based comparisons. In the conversation, we draw on data from the 2018 Program for International Student Assessment (https://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/indicator/cnu/intl-age15-literacy?tid=4) (PISA) and 2019 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (https://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/indicator/cnt) (TIMSS)
