Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year, the World Bank’s World Development Report (WDR) features a topic of central importance to global development. The 2018 WDR—LEARNING to Realize Education’s Promise—is the first ever devoted entirely to education. And the time is right: education has long been critical to human welfare, but it is even more so in a time of rapid economic and social change. The best way to equip children and youth for the future is to make their learning the center of all efforts to promote education. The 2018 WDR explores four main themes: First, education’s promise: education is a powerful instrument for eradicating poverty and promoting shared prosperity, but fulfilling its potential requires better policies—both within and outside the education system. Second, the need to shine a light on learning: despite gains in access to education, recent learning assessments reveal that many young people around the world, especially those who are poor or marginalized, are leaving school unequipped with even the foundational skills they need for life. At the same time, internationally comparable learning assessments show that skills in many middle-income countries lag far behind what those countries aspire to. And too often these shortcomings are hidden—so as a first step to tackling this learning crisis, it is essential to shine a light on it by assessing student learning better. Third, how to make schools work for all learners: research on areas such as brain science, pedagogical innovations, and school management has identified interventions that promote learning by ensuring that learners are prepared, teachers are both skilled and motivated, and other inputs support the teacher-learner relationship. Fourth, how to make systems work for learning: achieving learning throughout an education system requires more than just scaling up effective interventions. Countries must also overcome technical and political barriers by deploying salient metrics for mobilizing actors and tracking progress, building coalitions for learning, and taking an adaptive approach to reform.

Download or read book Institutional Context of Education Systems in Europe written by R.H. Hofman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-16 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on empirical analysis using configuration theory and multi-dimensional scaling, this book provides insight into types of relationships that can be found between groups of countries with certain institutional context features, and into the quality and equity of their education system. In this volume, the authors take up the challenge of considering what a European ‘settlement’ might look like. In doing so, they take into account worldwide trends and the increasing evidence of convergence across educational systems. The outcomes of comparative analyses seem to suggest that strong education systems in terms of finance, governance and choice could be preferable. To a greater or lesser extent, therefore, all the systems of education currently in use in Europe face some common challenges. The way in which these challenges are addressed will determine the future of these systems. Key elements in the current debate that are considered in greater detail in this volume include changing views on (a) centre-local relations with signs of an increasing commitment to decentralisation as a guiding principle for developing school governance; (b) school autonomy which is now increasingly regarded as the engine-room for school improvement, especially in relation to sustaining it; and (c) the celebration of community and school choice as a means of securing higher levels of parental involvement. This volume will be of interest to researchers and practitioners working in education, educational research and sociology of education. It will also be of relevance to those interested in the comparison of various education systems and in governance, funding of education and school choice.

Download or read book Emerging Trends in Indian School Education System written by Dr. A. R. Purwant and published by Ashok Yakkaldevi. This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction On August 15, 1947 India attained Independence from the British domination. This gave the people of the country the first fullest opportunity’ to mould their educational policy according to the needs of the nation in the fast changing times. But this opportunity was, not free from heavy responsibilities that lay ahead for reorienting the entire system of education, which apart from enabling the coming generations to develop their natural faculties, may also enable them to rebuild a new India. The content of learning, which from the very beginning of the British era had been mainly of a general and theoretical nature, had to be given a practical bias. The country needed a large number of technicians,. engineers, doctors, scientists and other skilled workers who could impart a new shape to various things in the developing economy of the country :which had been languishing under colonial exploitation for about two centuries.. These were, indeed very heavy and arduous tasks and the new Government and people of the country had no option but to accept the challenge of the situation and make their best efforts ‘to put the education in the country on right lines. The most important problems in the field of education before the national governments were the expansion of facilities for mass compulsory elementary education, reform of the secondary and university educational systems, to develop vocational and technical education at various levels-, to encourage women education and also to reorganise the structure of educational administration. With p. view to fulfil all these objectives, the Central and State Governments have been endeavouring to give a concrete shape to various programmes under the Five-Year Plans. We propose to discuss in detail all these efforts in the following chapters in this book. This chapter, however, presents only a brief analysis of the main events of educational importance during the period of Planning in India.
