Jeg har tenkt mye på disse PISA-tallene, og jeg skal ikke på noen måte si at de ikke er alvorlige. Derimot vil jeg påpeke at de ikke er så plutselige som vi tror. Jeg har søkt litt i atekst. Allerede i 1990 avdekket en undersøkelse at så mye som 25% av "avgangselever" var funksjonelle analfabeter.

Love Excels
Let’s spread ourselves on sheets of love
and turn our data into poetry.
Our cells shall merge themselves together
As you wrap your text around me.
Our sum is greater than our parts,
let’s crunch our figures without compunction.
Remove this filter from my heart –
you give me form and function.
We shall frolic among the formulae,
pivot our tables now and often.
I will total all your rows
and you can add my column.
