This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Labaree claims that by thinking of education primarily as the route to individual advancement, we are defining it as a private good - a means of gaining a competitive advantage over other people. He endorses an alternative vision, one that defines education as a public good, providing society with benefits that can be collectively shared - for example, by producing citizens who are politically responsible and workers who are economically productive.

Download or read book Community Colleges written by Cláudio de Moura Castro and published by IDB. This book was released on 2003 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heralded as one of the great educational innovations of the 20th century, community colleges have played a crucial role in democratizing and expanding post-secondary education. In the United States and Europe, one- and two-year education and training programs now absorb at least half of all high school graduates. Community Colleges: A Model for Latin America? explores how these institutions can help address the very challenges faced by post-secondary education in the region: an expanding and heterogeneous clientele, a lack of alternative social mobility options for people unable to attend traditional universities, and the need for more relevant curriculum that emphasizes knowledge and skills better attuned to the needs of the job market. The book aims to foster the development of effective community college models in Latin America by discussing the issues and obstacles from the North American experience in terms of financing, accreditation, prestige, and a regulatory and incentive framework. Latin America is far behind Europe and the United States in developing diverse, quality programs for its growing post-secondary population, which includes many people previously excluded from higher education. Schools that offer one- and two-year programs generally serve the least affluent and politically influential groups, so they often are short-changed in the allocation of funds. Yet, as demand for these programs grows, educators and ministries are left grappling to find new teaching methods, identify new markets for graduates, and better match students with real labor market demand. The community college model may be a source of inspiration for Latin America's efforts to reach out tothis new educational clientele.
