When, in 2001, the first results of the PISA survey were published, Germany was shocked. Nobody had thought before that Germany would not be in the top 10 percent of educational outcomes, for – as everybody was convinced – Germany has always been the land of education and of Bildung. The public debates raised the question of causes and culprits, and politicians saw themselves under pressure to find solutions.KeywordsElementary School TeacherGerman NationWeimar RepublicGerman HistoryEducation Reform MovementThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
