Schlagworte:
OECD, Bildungspolitik, Bildungssystem, Bildungsstandard, Bildungsfinanzierung, Bildungsangebot, Bildungsstatistik, Bildungsplanung, Internationaler Vergleich Taking the perspective of institutions and the system, Education Policy Outlook 2019: Working Together to Help Students Achieve their Potential, analyses the evolution of key education priorities and key education policies in 43 education systems. It compares more recent developments in education policy ecosystems (mainly between 2015 and 2019) with various education policies adopted between 2008 and 2014. This report includes around 460 education policy developments (with evidence of progress or impact for over 200 of them) spanning from early childhood education and care to higher education and lifelong learning on topics related to school improvement, evaluation and assessment, governance and funding. It looks into “what is being done”, as well as “why and how it works” to help education systems gain better understanding of how policies can have greater opportunities of success in their specific contexts.

Glendenning, Frank [Hrsg.]; Stuart-Hamilton, Ian [Hrsg.]
Learning and cognition in later life

London [u.a.]
, Routledge , 2018
Schlagworte:
Großbritannien, Erwachsenenbildung, Altenbildung, Gerontologie, Lernen, Gehirn, Kognition, Alter Mensch, Aufsatzsammlung Originally published in 1995, within the previous decade there had been significant developments in our understanding of the learning and motivation, together with the conceptual and cognitive development, of older adults. This understanding had been enhanced by findings from longitudinal studies which were now becoming available. These findings demonstrated the gains that had been made in research. In the past, inappropriately conceived studies have led to the perpetuation of myths and stereotypes about the intellectual development of older people. Special attention is paid in this book to changing perceptions of ageing and intelligence, learning aptitude, memory and intelligence testing. The important topic of ageing and wisdom is also discussed. (Verlag)

Unlocking the potential of migrants

cross-country analysis

Paris
, OECD Publishing , 2019 , 150 Seiten
Schlagworte:
Berufsbildung, Berufsausbildung, Berufliche Qualifikation, Migration, Zuwanderung, Junger Erwachsener, Berufliche Integration, Berufspraxis, Kompetenz, Einwanderungspolitik, OECD, Internationaler Vergleich Among the millions of asylum seekers who recently arrived in OECD countries, the majority are young people who may be able to take advantage of vocational education and training (VET) opportunities to help them enter skilled employment. This report provides advice to governments and other stakeholders who are seeking to use VET to promote integration, in particular for young humanitarian migrants. While the study draws particularly on policy and practice observed in Germany, Italy, Sweden and Switzerland, it also highlights other international practices. The report focuses on the main channels through which migrants succeed in VET. It is essential that migrants are fully informed about the opportunities VET provision offers and that they have access to high quality preparatory programmes enabling access to upper-secondary VET. Once in such provision, targeted support should help them to complete VET programmes successfully. OECD countries are putting in place innovative measures to achieve better outcomes for both migrants and for economies as a whole. Ultimately this report argues that VET systems can become stronger, more flexible and more inclusive, when working better for all students, including those with diverse and vulnerable backgrounds.
