The OECD PISA international survey of mathematical literacy for 2012 is based on a new Framework and has several new constructs. New features include an improved definition of mathematical literacy; the separate reporting of mathematical processes involved in using mathematics to solve real world problems; a computer-based component to assess mathematical literacy as it is likely to be encountered in modern workplaces; and new questionnaire items targeting mathematics. Procedures for quality assurance that arise in the preparation of an assessment for use in many countries around the world are illustrated with some items and results from the 2011 international field trial. The paper will provide background for the interpretation of the results of the PISA 2012 survey, which are to be published in December 2013.
