PISA sample tasks
The original PISA tasks may not be published, as some of them will be used again in future PISA cycles.
The tasks displayed here are not tasks from the main study. However, they are very similar to the test tasks and therefore provide insight into the PISA tasks.
Some of the computer-based tasks can be completed in all PISA languages on the OECD website.
Sample tasks for mathematical literacy (in German)
Sample tasks for reading literacy (in German)
Sample tasks for science literacy (in German)
Sample tasks for collaborative problem solving (in German)
Tasks from 2000, 2003 and 2006 may be found on the website of IPN (Leibniz Institute for Science and Mathematics Education).
