PISA 2022: A View of Education While Preparing for the Future

Reports & atlases · Education Reform Initiative, TÜSİAD · 2024

A comprehensive series that turns PISA's dense statistical world into a lucid visual narrative around inequality, wellbeing, and future skills. Complexity is not diminished; it is carefully choreographed.

The series' sophistication lies not in one spectacular form but in masterful management of cognitive load. A future-skills taxonomy gives concepts an iconographic architecture; small multiples build comparative power through shared scales; symmetrical composition and restrained annotation reveal differences without sensationalizing them. Editorial restraint becomes a precise form of data ethics.

A visual taxonomy of skills

Brings dispersed skill concepts into one framework through icons, concise definitions, and PISA links.

A visual architecture for concepts

Icon, title, and concise definition meet in one modular card, making abstract skills scannable, comparable, and memorable.

Reading habits through small multiples

Different food behaviors become comparable through a shared scale and repeating form.

Positioning wellbeing on two axes

Resilience and wellbeing are read together, showing group position and magnitude in the same plane.

A structural portrait of inequality

School types share a common axis, revealing not only the center of the distribution but the structural separation within the system.
