Description

Explore how contemporary societies are shaped and constrained by testing systems with the Comparative Sociology of Examinations from the Routledge Advances in Sociology series. This academic text examines the multi-layered and continuous systems of tests used by governments in both Western and non-Western countries. By analyzing international tests like PISA and TIMSS, this work provides a way to compare learner performance across diverse educational institutions globally. The book uses examinations as a methodological tool to contrast different societies, including comparisons between the West and the East. It offers a deep look into how these assessment structures function as a way to study and understand the social fabric of different nations.
