| Abstract | The "PISA Bites Corner," a creative classroom technique incorporating PISA-like activities into Grade 8 Mathematics teaching, is investigated in this study for its pedagogical effects. Designed to boost students' critical thinking, problem-solving, and application of mathematical ideas in actual situations, the intervention established specific classroom areas for weekly PISA-like activities. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study included pre- and post-assessments together with qualitative data gathered from surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions with 168 pupils and 14 teachers. Results showed noteworthy improvement in students' post-test performance and pointed up greater engagement, confidence, and analytic skill among those exposed to the PISA Bites Corner. Teachers admitted both difficulties and advantages, pointing out time limits yet confirming the worth of the method in improving student performance and encouraging pedagogical innovation. The results support the inclusion of PISA-like activities into classroom practice as a method of aligning instruction with international norms and equipping students for international assessments. |
