Interview: Researcher: "Even if Meta switches off Instagram at night, no one should believe that Pisa scores will explode"
Olaf Köller sees major deficits in the German education system. He does not cite immigration or social media as the main cause, but rather a completely different point.
Germany's education system has shown poor results in recent tests, including the current Pisa study. 32% of 15-year-olds fail to meet the minimum reading level and 34% struggle with math. Professor Köller attributes the poor performance to a lack of focus on basic skills and a failure to adapt teaching methods to the modern world. He calls for a more challenging and relevant curriculum, including the use of digital media, to improve student motivation and performance.
