This article examines the effectiveness of PISA-format tasks in the teaching of physics. The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) has become a benchmark for evaluating educational systems worldwide. The article explores how incorporating these tasks into physics education can improve students’ scientific literacy, problem-solving abilities, and critical thinking. By analyzing existing literature and implementing PISA-style tasks in physics classrooms, this study identifies the benefits and challenges associated with using such assessments. The findings suggest that PISA-format tasks encourage deeper engagement with physics concepts, facilitate the development of analytical skills, and improve students' ability to apply their knowledge in real-world situations.
