  "account": "Professor Köller discusses the poor performance of German students in the latest Pisa study, particularly in reading, mathematics, and science. He notes that 32% of 15-year-olds fail to meet the minimum level in reading and 34% in mathematics, hindering their chances of a qualified vocational training. Köller emphasizes the need for a modernized teaching approach that connects with students' everyday lives and incorporates digital media to make learning more engaging. He also stresses the importance of promoting a culture of effort and challenge in schools to improve students' performance.",
  "summary": "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.",
