    Keywords: Education ; Latvia
    Abstract: OECD's 2001 review of Latvia's education policies and programmes. It finds that reform of education, training and human resource development is an integral part of the transition to a democratic society and market economy. Latvia has made progress in all these areas since reform began in 1990. The challenge for the Ministry of Education and Science has been to promote and support changes that meet the needs of the new economy and society as well as the interests of all young people and adults, in the face of a shortage of financial and human resources. This book first gives a brief overview of regional issues and a history of education in Latvia and describes the development of education in the country since the political changes. It then presents an analysis of the entire education system and identifies key directions for the reinforcement of the reforms in light of the challenges encountered by officials, communities, enterprises, educators, parents and students under very dynamic conditions. It concludes with a set of key recommendations of goals of education, learning effectiveness, outcomes and the curriculum, management and governance for flexibility, responsiveness and change, and resources and financing.

    Keywords: Education
    Abstract: Knowledge and Skills for Life assesses how far students near the end of compulsory education (15-year-olds) have acquired some of the knowledge and skills that are essential for full participation in society. It presents evidence on student performance in reading, mathematical and scientific literacy, reveals factors that influence the development of these skills at home and at school, and examines what the implications are for policy development. The report shows considerable variation in levels of knowledge and skills between students, schools and countries. The extent to which the socio-economic background of students and schools affects student performance varies. Some countries have managed to mitigate the influence of social background and some have done that while achieving a high overall mean performance.

    Keywords: Education ; Employment ; Social Issues/Migration/Health
    Abstract: In a rapidly changing world, the success of nations, communities and individuals may be linked, more than ever before, to how they adapt to change, learn and share knowledge. This report helps clarify the concepts of human and social capital and evaluates their impact on economic growth and well-being. Although the evidence on social capital is less developed, reflecting the novelty of the concept in economic and social science, the report draws on a number of empirical studies which suggest potentially important linkages between human and social capital. The evidence suggests that human and social capital can be of key importance in contributing to a wide range of positive outcomes, including higher income, life satisfaction and social cohesion. Although there is no evidence for systematic "under-investment" in either human or social capital, concerns are expressed about the distribution and quality of each form of capital and how this might impact on future well-being. There is limited scope for public policy to change the quality, stock and distribution of human and social capital in the short-term. However, a number of areas are discussed in which public, private and voluntary actors may leverage long-term improvements in both human and social capital.

    Abstract: Sind die Schülerinnen und Schüler gut vorbereitet für die Herausforderungen der Zukunft? Sind sie in der Lage, ihre Ideen und Vorstellungen effektiv zu analysieren, zu begründen und zu kommunizieren? Verfügen sie über die notwendigen Kompetenzen für lebensbegleitendes Lernen? Der Bericht bewertet, inwieweit Schülerinnen und Schüler gegen Ender ihrer Pflichtschulzeit wesentliche Kompetenzen erworben haben, die für eine aktive Teilhabe an der Gesellschaft unerlässlich sind. Er enthält Angaben zu den Schülerleistungen in den Bereichen Lesekompetenz sowie mathematische und naturwissenschaftliche Grundbildung, deckt die Faktoren auf, die die Entwicklung dieser Kompetenzen im familiären und schulischen Kontext beeinflussen, und untersucht, welche Konsequenzen sich daraus für die Politikgestaltung ergeben. Die PISA-Ergebnisse zeigen, dass das Niveau der Kenntnisse und Fähigkeiten je nach Schülern, Schulen und Ländern erheblich variiert. Der sozioökonomische Hintergrund von Schülern und Schulen wirkt sich unterschiedlich stark auf die Schülerleistungen aus. Einigen Ländern ist es gelungen, den Einfluss dieser sozialen Faktoren abzuschwächen, und mache haben dabei zugleich ein insgesamt hohes durchschnittliches Leistungsniveau erreicht.
