Book excerpt: It was in a context of unprecedented economic growth that educational planning developed in the 1960s. At the time, educational planners were entrusted with orchestrating the tremendous expansion of schooling, with the aim of both universalizing education and providing national economies with the qualified manpower needed. Such rigid mandatory planning is not suited to today's world, but other forms of planning such as policy analysis, policy dialog, labor market analysis, and strategic management are still valid. The following is a complete list of reprinted essays collected for this book.

The case analyses will discuss the challenges these societies face in education in their progression towards the twenty-first century. In its various sections, the book addresses the following questions: How did education respond during the 1980s to the major sociopolitical and economic changes that affected these countries? How did the changes in the 1980s affect the relationships between education, society, and the state, and what lessons can be learned from the interaction between research and policy that may help in understanding the developmental role of education in the 1990s? And is educational research and policy helping to improve the social condition of minorities in Latin America? This volume will be of interest to scholars and policymakers in Latin American studies, educational research, education policy, and educational planning.
Download or read book Pathways to Educational Transformation and Development written by Norrel A. London and published by Canadian Scholars Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant turning point in education in developing nations took place as the designated countries acceded to political independence, having crossed the border from centuries of colonial rule. Education was ascribed "human capital" value, and was considered a vital contribution to the planning and development process. In Pathways to Educational Transformation and Development, Dr. London chronicles this transformation in education in one developing nation, Trinidad and Tobago. Strategies adopted, as well as some triumphs and failures, are highlighted, but the lessons that the episodes impart to the educational development planner are the most enduring features of the book. Pathways is a significant contribution to the international thrust of education development in the aftermath of decolonization.
