David Rutkowski studies how large-scale international tests of student achievement (such as PISA and other cross-country assessments) are designed, analyzed, and interpreted. His work examines the statistical methods behind these tests, whether they fairly measure students across different countries and backgrounds, and how the resulting data should inform education policy. He also works on practical education interventions, such as home-based reading programs.
