This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the Assessment is to analyse the agriculture and rural sectors from a gender perspective at the macro level (policy), meso level (institutional) and micro level (community and household). The Assessment seeks to identify gender inequalities in access to critical productive resources, assets, services and opportunities. The assessment looks at the priorities, needs and constraints of both women and men in agricultural and rural communities, and the gaps that exist in responding to these issues. It also provides recommendations and guidance to promote gender sensitivity in future programmes and projects, and identifies possible partners for gender-related activities. This Assessment is also intended to raise awareness about gender issues among policy-makers, FAO officers, NGOs and community-based organizations in Vanuatu. It provides background and gender-related information, and can be used as a tool to mainstream gender perspectives in future policies, projects and programmes in ways that empower rural women.

Book Evaluation of the Flexible Literacy for Remote Primary Schools Program Main Report

Download or read book Evaluation of the Flexible Literacy for Remote Primary Schools Program Main Report written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Flexible Literacy for Remote Primary Schools Program (FLFRPSP) was a policy response to low literacy performance of students living in remote and very remote Australian communities. In developing the program, it was recognised that students in remote and very remote schools faced diverse barriers to learning that were There are two key and inter-related aspects to the methodology driving this evaluation. First, FLFRPSP is educational reform in heterogeneous and complex contexts, and this complexity needs to be factored in to what data is collected, how this data is collected, and how this data is analysed and interpreted. Second, the evaluation takes a longitudinal view, and in so doing considers the data examined in this report as having utility in the current discussion regarding the program, but also having utility as the foundation for ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the program over time. These two concepts are inter-related because educational reform in any complex environment takes time and deserves time. Evaluation plays a critical role in the provision of this time by future-proofing monitoring systems and developing measurement models that are sustainable and where possible standardised so that relevant analysis can be compared over time and in a meaningful way.

Book The International Handbook of Educational Research in the Asia Pacific Region

Download or read book The International Handbook of Educational Research in the Asia Pacific Region written by J.P. Keeves and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 1405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the Handbook is to present readily accessible, but scholarly sources of information about educational research in the Asia-Pacific region. The scale and scope of the Handbook is such that the articles included in it provide substantive contributions to knowledge and understanding of education in the Asia region. In so doing, the articles present the problems and issues facing education in the region and the findings of research conducted within the region that contribute to the resolution of these problems and issues. Moreover, since new problems and issues are constantly arising, the articles in the Handbook also indicate the likely directions of future developments. The different articles within the Handbook seek to conceptualize the problems in each specific content area under review, provide an integration of the research conducted within that area, the theoretical basis of the research the practical implications of the research and the contribution of the research towards the resolution of the problems identified. Thus, the articles do not involve the reporting of newly conducted research, but rather require a synthesis of the research undertaken in a particular area, with reference to the research methods employed and the theoretical frameworks on which the research is based. In general, the articles do not advocate a single point of view, but rather, present alternative points of view and comment on the debate and disagreements associated with the conduct and findings of the research. Furthermore, it should be noted, that the Handbook is not concerned with research methodology, and only considers the methods employed in inquiry in so far as the particular methods of research contribute to the effective investigation of problems and issues that have arisen in the conduct and provision of education at different levels within the region.

Book Report of the Program Evaluation of Reading to Learn

Download or read book Report of the Program Evaluation of Reading to Learn written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NSW Department of Education and Communities commissioned the Student Engagement and Program Evaluation Bureau (SEPEB) to conduct a program evaluation of Reading to Learn, a whole-class program designed to improve literacy for primary school students. Reading to Learn is one of several programs offered to schools for implementation under the National Partnership on Literacy and Numeracy (NPLN). The evaluation: assesses the effectiveness of the program; assesses the extent to which the program achieves its goals in an efficient manner and where applicable, addresses the mandatory reform elements of the National Partnership on Literacy and Numeracy, (which are: effective and evidence-based teaching of literacy and numeracy; strong school leadership and whole-school engagement with literacy and numeracy; and monitoring student and school literacy and numeracy performance to identify where support is needed); assesses the extent to which the program has improved the educational outcomes of Aboriginal students; and investigates the most effective ways for schools to be supported to participate in the evaluation and for the reforms to be incorporated into school practice. The evaluation was conducted over a twelve-month period, during 2011 and focused only on achievement in the reading component of literacy. [Executive summary, ed].

Download or read book Growing Smarter written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One-quarter of the world’s school-age children live in East Asia and Pacific. During the past 50 years, some economies in the region have successfully transformed themselves by investing in the continuous upgrading of the knowledge, skills, and abilities of their workforce. Through policy foresight, they have produced graduates with new levels of knowledge and skills almost as fast as industries have increased their demand for skilled workers. Yet the success of these high-performing systems has not been replicated throughout the region. Tens of millions of students are in school but not learning, and as many as 60 percent of students remain in school systems that are struggling to escape from the global learning crisis or in systems where performance is likely poor. Many students in these systems fail to reach basic levels of proficiency in key subjects and are greatly disadvantaged because of it. Growing Smarter: Learning and Equitable Development in East Asia and Pacific focuses on the experiences of economies in the region that have been able to expand schooling and learning and showcases those that have managed to pursue successful education reforms at scale. By examining these experiences, the report provides both diagnoses and detailed recommendations for improvement not only for education systems within East Asia and Pacific but also for countries across the globe. In East Asia and Pacific, the impressive record of success in education in some low- and middle-income countries is proof of concept that schooling in resource-constrained contexts can lead to learning for all. This report identifies the policies and practices necessary to ensure that students learn and suggests how countries can improve learning outcomes.

Book World Bank East Asia and Pacific Economic Update  April 2018

Download or read book World Bank East Asia and Pacific Economic Update April 2018 written by WorldBank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-11 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Developing EAP grew slightly faster than anticipated in 2017. The growth ofregional GDP excluding China is forecast to accelerate in 2018, while China's GDP growth is expected to moderate as the economy keeps rebalancing. Major downside risks include volatility associated with faster than expected' monetary policy tightening in advanced economies and rising threat of trade restrictions. Developing EAP countries would need to get ready to respond to increasing interest rates and find ways to raise potential growth in the medium run. Specifically, amid the rising risk of protectionism and changes in the global manufacturing landscape, countries should continue to enhance trade facilitation and integration, increase the effectiveness of schools and education systems and upgrade capabilities to ensure that workers and managers have necessary skills. To provide economic security to the population, policies should focus on strengthening social assistance and insurance programs and increasing resilience to systemic shocks."

Book International Research on Education for Sustainable Development in Early Childhood

Download or read book International Research on Education for Sustainable Development in Early Childhood written by John Siraj-Blatchford and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a perspective on Education for Sustainable Development in Early Childhood (ESDEC) that is far removed from the ‘business as usual’ notion of an extended, predominantly environmental, educational curriculum for preschools. It presents a vision of sustainable development that has relevance to Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) from birth to school; it is relevant as much to homes, family support and health settings as it is to educational settings, and is as much concerned with health and wellbeing as with education. The book provides a perspective that is fundamentally embedded in notions of interdependency. It places an emphasis upon the importance of recognising the interdependency of peoples within and between nation states; the ecological interdependencies of the natural world; of humanity and nature; and most significantly the interdependency of adults and children. These emphases have their origins in the grassroots studies included in the ten chapters representing countries from around the world. The book reflects the idea that only global solutions and initiatives are capable of addressing the global challenges of climate change, environmental pollution, and global threats to ecological systems and biodiversity.
