    Abstract: DIE ROLLE VON HUMAN- UND SOZIALKAPITAL In unserer heutigen, sich rasch wandelnden Welt dürfte der Erfolg von Nationen, Individuen, gesellschaftlichen Gruppen und Gemeinwesen wohl mehr denn je von deren Fähigkeit abhängen, sich dem Wandel anzupassen, Wissen zu erwerben und auszutauschen. Der vorliegende Bericht trägt zur Klärung der Konzepte Human- und Sozialkapital bei und evaluiert deren Einfluss auf Wirtschaftswachstum und Wohlergehen. Der Begriff des Sozialkapitals, der erst seit kurzem in der Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaft existiert, ist bislang noch relativ wenig belegt. Der Bericht stützt sich daher auf eine Reihe empirischer Untersuchungen, die auf potentiell signifikante Beziehungen zwischen Human- und Sozialkapital hindeuten. Den verfügbaren Erkenntnissen zufolge können Human- und Sozialkapital einen entscheidenden Beitrag zu einer ganzen Reihe positiver Ergebnisse leisten, die von höheren Einkommen über stärkeren sozialen Zusammenhalt bis hin zu größerer Lebenszufriedenheit reichen. Auch wenn es keine Belege für systematische „Unterinvestitionen" weder in Human- oder Sozialkapital gibt, werden doch gewisse Bedenken hinsichtlich Verteilung und Qualität beider Kapitalformen geäußert und die Frage untersucht, wie sich diese Aspekte auf das Wohlergehen künftiger Generationen auswirken könnten. Kurzfristig verfügt die staatliche Politik nur über begrenzten Spielraum zur Beeinflussung von Qualität, Niveau und Verteilung des Human- und Sozialkapitals. Langfristig gibt es aber eine Reihe von Bereichen, in denen staatliche, private und ehrenamtliche Akteure zur Verbesserung des Human- und Sozialkapitals beitragen können.

    Abstract: OECD countries are attaching rising importance to lifelong learning and active employment policies as tools of economic growth and social equity. Effective information and guidance systems are essential to support the implementation of these policies, and all citizens need to develop the skills to self-manage their careers. Yet there are large gaps between these policy goals and the capacity of national career guidance systems. Based upon a review conducted in 14 OECD countries, this publication explores how these gaps might be narrowed. It advocates improved national co-ordination arrangements and greater attention to research and data collection to inform policy makers. It also promotes the development of improved and more specialised training programmes for practitioners and the creation of more specialised career guidance organisations for the delivery of services.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Learners for Life: Student Approaches to Learning: Results from PISA 2000
    Keywords: Education
    Abstract: Im vorliegenden Bericht werden Ergebnisse der internationalen Schulleistungsstudie PISA analysiert, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der Motivation, dem Vertrauen in die eigenen Fähigkeiten und der Anwendung verschiedener Lernstrategien liegt.Betrachtet werden vor allem solche Merkmale, die zusammengenommen die Wahrscheinlichkeit erhöhen, dass ein Schüler zu einem selbstsicheren und autonomen Lerner wird. Die Ergebnisse bestätigen, dass zwischen den Lernansätzen und den messbaren Lernergebnissen der Schülerinnen und Schüler ein enger Zusammenhang besteht. So erzielen z.B. Schülerinnen und Schüler, die ein ausgeprägtes Leseinteresse zeigen und vergleichsweise stärker auf ihre Fähigkeit zur Lösung ihnen selbst schwierig erscheinender Probleme vertrauen, tendenziell auch bessere Ergebnisse. In dem Bericht wird ferner nachgewiesen, dass ein besonders enger Zusammenhang zwischen der Tendenz der Schülerinnen und Schüler zur Selbstkontrolle des Lernprozesses durch bewusste Beobachtung ihrer Fortschritte bei der Realisierung persönlicher Ziele einerseits und ihrer Motivation und ihrem Selbstvertrauen andererseits besteht. Das legt den Schluss nahe, dass effektives Lernen nicht einfach als spezielle Fertigkeit gelehrt werden kann, sondern in erheblichem Maße von der Entwicklung einer positiven Einstellung abhängt.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Keeping Schools Safe in Earthquakes: (Chinese version)
    Keywords: Education
    Abstract: Earthquake-prone communities need earthquake-resistant schools. In 2002, a primary school in San Giuliano, Italy, collapsed killing 29 children and one teacher. In May 2003, a medium-sized earthquake in the city of Bingöl, Turkey, caused the collapse of three new schools and a dormitory, killing many children as they slept. All too frequently, earthquakes cause the collapse of school buildings and the injury and death of staff and students. Further, when schools are closed because of earthquake damage, education is hampered, community life disrupted, and potential emergency shelters unavailable. Where school attendance is compulsory, communities have an obligation to provide a safe study and work environment. Why do schools collapse even during moderate earthquakes? Experts agree that many collapse due to avoidable errors in design and construction. Often, the needed technology is not applied and laws and regulations are not sufficiently enforced. Application of existing knowledge can significantly lower the seismic risk of schools and help prevent further injury and death of school occupants during earthquakes. Moreover, this can be accomplished at reasonable cost and within a reasonable period. Keeping Schools Safe in Earthquakes presents expert knowledge, opinions and experiences, and provides valuable insight into the scope of problems involved in protecting schools and their occupants. Its recommendations are a call to action to all governments in OECD and partner countries to help facilitate their implementation.

    Keywords: Education ; Switzerland
    Abstract: En usage depuis un an, le cycle d’orientation de Montbrillant à Genève répond-il aux objectifs visés lors de sa conception ? Répond-il aux besoins et attentes du personnel et des élèves ? De telles questions servent à évaluer la qualité d’un bâtiment scolaire une fois en usage et ont un lien avec les travaux soutenus par le PEB sur la méthode d’évaluation de fonctionnalité après aménagement. Lors de la conception de Montbrillant, l’état de Genève a cherché à atteindre des objectifs spécifiques de concepts intégrés ; afin de vérifier la concrétisation de ces concepts, l’auteur a pris contact avec les différents utilisateurs actuels de l’école : la direction et le personnel administratif et technique, les enseignants et les élèves. Même si l’appréciation générale était possible, les usagers ont exprimé leur insatisfaction sur plusieurs aspects de l’infrastructure tels que décrits ci-dessous.

    Abstract: A la suite de longs débats, le gouvernement de l’Autriche a établi un texte de loi qui accordera aux universités un statut de semi-autonomie. Cette réforme est le changement le plus marqué du système universitaire depuis 150 ans et a été précédée par un changement tout aussi essentiel du statut du corps enseignant et des autres catégories de personnel, qui prévoit la suppression du statut de fonctionnaire pour tous les futurs engagements. Parmi les principales questions ayant fait l’objet de discussions entre la Conférence des recteurs, les organisations représentant le corps enseignant et les autres catégories de personnel et le ministère, citons l’équilibre des pouvoirs entre les établissements, les représentants extérieurs et le ministère, ainsi que l’importance de la tutelle exercée par le ministère. De l’avis des établissements, ce texte de loi est très nettement favorable au ministère, et laisse au corps enseignant trop peu de possibilités de prendre des initiatives et de participer à des groupes centraux de pilotage...

    Abstract: Following prolonged discussion, the Austrian government has passed a new University Act which will provide universities with a semiautonomous status. The reform is the most incisive change of the university system for the past 150 years and has been preceded by an equally momentous change in the status of the teaching faculty and staff, all future appointments no longer providing civil servant status any more. Major points in discussions between the Rectors Conference, the organizations representing the professoriate and staff, and the Ministry have been the balance of power between the institutions, representatives from outside, and the Ministry, as well as the amount of control to be exercised by the Ministry. In the view of the institutions, the legislation is heavily weighted towards the latter leaving too little room for initiatives from the faculties and participation in the central steering groups....

    Abstract: Le système de financement particulier adopté par la Nouvelle-Zélande accorde une grande autonomie aux établissements d’enseignement publics en matière de gestion de leurs actifs par rapport à ce qui se passe dans la plupart des autres pays. Les écoles peuvent prétendre à un budget prédéterminé qui leur est versé par les trois « sources » de la structure de financement des actifs des établissements d’enseignement. Le recours original du gouvernement à la méthode de la comptabilité d’exercice, associé à un nouvel accord sur les Plans quinquennaux de gestion des actifs, permet aux établissements de connaître avec une grande précision le montant du financement des actifs dont ils disposent. En outre, ces derniers jouissent d’une grande autonomie dans la prise de décision concernant la modernisation de leurs bâtiments.

    Abstract: De nombreux observateurs ont noté l’existence d’une large corruption dans l’enseignement supérieur des États de l’ex-Union soviétique. Les preuves empiriques de cette situation sont cependant rares. Nous examinons dans cet article quelques approches théoriques pouvant présider à l’étude de la corruption, et présentons à la lumière de ces postulats théoriques les données empiriques sur la corruption dans l’enseignement supérieur de la Russie et de l’Azerbaïdjan que nous avons recueillies. Si les deux États examinés ici ont un héritage politique commun, la corruption dans leur enseignement supérieur semble diverger. Nous suggérons que le capital social constitue une théorie utile pour comprendre les différents niveaux de corruption que l’on y rencontre. Cette théorie du capital social permet peut-être aussi de conclure qu’on ne parviendra pas à une diminution palpable de l’ampleur de la corruption par des moyens purement techniques (tels que des changements organisationnels) : le renforcement de la société civile nécessitera une approche plus générale...

Comme la consommation d’énergie dans les bâtiments est à l’origine d’environ 55 % du CO2 rejeté dans l’atmosphère qui contribue fortement au réchauffement planétaire, le ministère a étudié les techniques de construction et les systèmes les plus récents pouvant diminuer la consommation énergétique.

    Abstract: Les pays de l’OCDE attachent une importance grandissante aux politiques de formation tout au long de la vie et aux politiques actives de l’emploi, en tant qu’instruments de la croissance économique et de l’équité sociale. Des systèmes efficaces d’information et d’orientation sont essentiels pour étayer la mise en œuvre de ces politiques, et tous les citoyens doivent acquérir les compétences nécessaires pour gérer eux-mêmes leur évolution professionnelle. Un grand décalage existe cependant entre les objectifs des décideurs publics et les capacités des systèmes nationaux d’orientation. Basée sur un examen conduit dans 14 pays de l’OCDE, cette publication étudie les moyens qui pourraient éventuellement permettre de remédier au décalage entre les services d’orientation professionnelle et l’action gouvernementale.

    Abstract: Knowledge management involves any activity related to the capture, use and sharing of knowledge by an organisation. Evidence shows that these practices are being used more and more frequently and that their impact on innovation and other aspects of corporate performance is far from negligible. Today, there is a recognition of the need to understand and to measure the activity of knowledge management so that organisations can be more efficient and governments can develop policies to promote these benefits. This book offers a synthetic view of the results of the first systematic international survey on knowledge management carried out by national statistical offices in Canada, Denmark, France and Germany.

    Abstract: Cet article a pour objet d’examiner si l’idée d’un lien entre la recherche et l’enseignement est toujours largement défendue, quelle signification lui est attribuée et selon quelles conceptions de l’enseignement supérieur. L’auteur s’inspire des recherches sur les points de vue de deux groupes d’acteurs, les universitaires et les étudiants, et de certaines analyses récentes que d’éminents spécialistes ont consacrées à ces questions. L’argument avancé est que des universitaires et tout un éventail d’étudiants sont encore très attachés à l’idée de ce lien. Il trouve son origine dans un monde dans lequel les définitions du savoir et de l’enseignement supérieur restent pour l’essentiel d’inspiration universitaire. Les ouvrages récents examinés tentent de resserrer les liens conceptuels entre l’enseignement et la recherche et de les resituer en soutenant que les « sociétés du savoir » contemporaines ...

    Abstract: Trade globalisation is beginning to affect universities worldwide. In response to this outside pressure, institutions have become more geared to gaining international repute through research than to maintaining their reputation at home for the quality of their teaching. As a result of this focus on research, French universities, for example, are losing ground to other kinds of higher education institutions. One of the main reasons is that research encourages specialisation, whereas the market increasingly requires multi-disciplinary and cross-cutting skills. In order to explore how society’s contradictory demands can be met, two opposing models will be presented, one that seeks to preserve the universalist role of universities and another that would prompt higher education institutions to become increasingly specialised in pursuit of research excellence. Between these two extremes, there is perhaps a middle way that is difficult to follow, but that is exceptionally enriching for the university community, provided that university management is rethought. The primary mistake that can be made in any process of change is to seek to merge the role of individuals with that of institutions. Although universities can continue to pull together all the various threads that contribute to economic development, individuals cannot be expected to have the same multi-faceted profile. This means that the quality of tomorrow’s universities will depend on the quality of interpersonal relationships and how they are managed....

    Abstract: On examine dans cet article l’évolution des politiques visant à élargir l’accès à l’enseignement supérieur au Royaume-Uni. Cette évolution s’est produite dans le contexte de la décentralisation de l’autorité au Parlement écossais et aux Assemblées du pays de Galles et d’Irlande du Nord, qui a entraîné certaines variations des grandes orientations. On étudie ici la « prime au code postal » versée aux universités par les bailleurs de fonds en fonction du nombre d’étudiants issus de régions plus pauvres. En utilisant les données relatives à l’Irlande du Nord, on met en lumière les grands problèmes auxquels se heurte cette approche du fait de « l’erreur écologique ». En conclusion, on s’étonne dans cet article que des décisions aient été prises sans que l’on ait apparemment pris conscience de ces problèmes...

    Abstract: Cet article examine l’utilisation faite des indicateurs de rendement clés dans les établissements d’enseignement post-secondaire canadiens. Plus précisément, il étudie l’utilisation qui en est faite dans l’optique des étudiants et l’effet qui en résulte sur la qualité et la prestation des activités éducatives. Au Canada, les dix gouvernements des provinces ont recours aux indicateurs de rendement clés (IRC). Chacune des circonscriptions territoriales qui ont adopté les IRC les utilisent pour subordonner l’octroi des financements de base et des financements en capital à diverses formes de performances des établissements. L’auteur analyse à des fins comparatives comment certains critères sont favorisés par la mise en place des IRC. L’article porte sur l’adoption des indicateurs de rendement clés dans trois provinces : l’Ontario, l’Alberta et la Colombie-Britannique. Dans chaque cas, l’auteur examine l’ensemble complexe de politiques et de relations institutionnelles en jeu dans la construction des indicateurs de rendement clés. Un examen comparatif des différents cas met en lumière des pratiques exemplaires ainsi que des leçons de l’expérience dans lesquelles la définition même de la responsabilisation devient très rapidement un point de vue extrêmement politisé. Enfin, cet article comprend des suggestions pratiques de nature anticipative, formulées dans l’optique des étudiants, au sujet des critères qu’il convient de retenir pour élaborer des IRC. A chaque point examiné, il intègre (ou réintègre) la perspective des étudiants dans le dialogue en cours au sujet de la responsabilisation et de la nouvelle identité de l’enseignement supérieur...

    Abstract: Many observers have noted that corruption in higher education is widespread in the states of the former Soviet Union. Little empirical evidence is available, however. This article examines some theoretical approaches to the study of corruption, and presents empirical data on corruption in higher education from Russia and Azerbaijan, collected by the authors, in the light of these theoretical positions. While both states examined here have a common political heritage, higher education corruption appears to be of a diverging character in the two states. We suggest that social capital offers a helpful theory in understanding the varying levels of corruption encountered in the two states. Social capital theory also perhaps suggests that significant reductions in the extent of corruption will not be achieved by purely technical means (such as changes in organisational arrangements), but require a broader approach to achieve a strengthened civil society....

    Abstract: This book outlines practices in OECD countries to promote equity in education, that is, to address the needs of students with disabilities, learning difficulties and social disadvantages. The book highlights the number of students involved and where they are educated (special schools, special classes or regular schools). New data are included covering pre-school and upper secondary education and data on gender have also been expanded. The book also includes information on the physical provision and on student/teacher ratios. It includes a comprehensive set of statistics on the different categories of students and indicators of equity. The analysis is based on both quantitative and qualitative data provided by 28 OECD countries and a number of provinces.

Die fünf Kapitel dieses Teils bieten einen Überblick über den Kontext und das spezifische Umfeld der schweizerischen Tertiärbildung und erörtern die politischen Herausforderungen, mit denen der Sektor konfrontiert ist. Struktur und Finanzierung der Tertiärbildung, die Merkmale der Partizipation an und der Bereitstellung von Bildungsmöglichkeiten, das Profil der Forschung, die Merkmale der Lehre und des Lernens sowie der Internationalisierungsprozess werden beschrieben. Ferner werden die derzeit stattfindenden Reformen sowohl aus globaler Sicht als auch auf Ebene des Systems und der Institutionen skizziert.Der Bericht der OECD-Experten, der sich neben anderen Quellen auf den Länderbericht bezieht, bildet Teil II der vorliegenden Publikation. In sechs Kapiteln werden politische Ansätze analysiert und Empfehlungen formuliert. Kapitel 1 zeigt auf, mit welchen Herausforderungen der tertiäre Bildungssektor konfrontiert ist, und nimmt dabei Bezug auf den historischen Kontext und auf die Besonderheiten des schweizerischen Systems. In Kapitel 2 werden Umfang und Struktur des tertiären Bildungswesens in der Schweiz dargestellt. In Kapitel 3 werden Lehre, Studium und Forschung vor dem Hintergrund der Errungenschaften, Problemstellungen und Reformen erörtert, während Kapitel 4 sich mit dem Übergang von Kontrolle undVerwaltung hin zu Steuerung und Management befasst. Die Informationsgrundlagen für die Entscheidungsfindung und die Notwendigkeit ihrer Verbesserung werden in Kapitel 5 diskutiert.Kapitel 6 schliesslich fasst die wichtigsten Erkenntnisse zusammen und nennt Empfehlungen zu weiteren Verbesserungen in den untersuchten Gebieten.

    Abstract: La globalisation des échanges commence à toucher les universités nationales un peu partout dans le monde. Pour répondre à cette pression extérieure, chaque établissement cherche plus à s’assurer une notoriété internationale par la recherche que nationale par la pédagogie. La concentration de l’attention et de l’activité sur la recherche conduit, par exemple l’université française à perdre des parts de marché par rapport à d’autres structures d’enseignement supérieur. Une des principales raisons est que la recherche pousse à la spécialisation alors que le marché demande de plus en plus des formations pluridisciplinaires ou transversales. Pour répondre à ces demandes contradictoires de la société, deux scénarios extrêmes sont présentés, l’un qui tente de maintenir l’esprit universaliste des universités et l’autre qui pousse les établissements d’enseignement supérieur à toujours plus de spécialisation au nom de l’excellence de la recherche. Entre ces deux modèles, il y a peut être une voie médiane, difficile, mais combien enrichissante pour la communauté universitaire, à condition cependant de repenser le management universitaire. Dans tout processus de changement, l’erreur majeure est de vouloir confondre la démarche des individus avec celle des organisations. L’université peut assurément continuer à tenir tous les fils conduisant au développement économique, mais on ne peut pas demander à chaque acteur d’avoir ce profil polyvalent. C’est donc la qualité des liaisons interpersonnelles et leur management qui fera la qualité des universités de demain....

    Abstract: In this paper the author examines the implementation of key performance indicators in Canadian post-secondary education institutions. More specifically he charts their implementation from the perspective of students and the effect they have on the quality and delivery of education. Key performance indicators (KPI) in Canada are administered by the ten provincial governments. In each of the jurisdictions in which they have been introduced KPIs have tied various forms of institutional performance to core funding and capital funding allocation.The paper offers a comparative analysis of how certain criteria are promoted by the establishment of KPIs. It examines the introduction of KPIs in three provinces: Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia. In each case the complex set of politics and institutional relations at stake in the establishment of KPIs are examined. A comparative examination of each case provides signposts for best practices as well as instructive lessons in where and how quickly the very definition of accountability becomes a highly politicised term of contention. Finally, the paper makes proactive policy suggestions, from the standpoint of students, about the criteria that should be used in the establishment of KPIs. At all points the paper (re) inserts the perspective of students into the ongoing dialogue about accountability and the changing identity of higher education....

    Abstract: Cet ouvrage, publié conjointement par l’OCDE et la Commission européenne, donne aux décideurs publics des outils pratiques pour s’attaquer aux insuffisances de nombreux systèmes nationaux d’orientation professionnelle. Ces services sont notamment d’un accès limité, surtout pour les adultes, ils n’apprennent pas aux intéressés à gérer leur parcours professionnel, la formation y est inappropriée et la coordination des services médiocre. Dans un langage simple, qui n’a rien de technique, cette publication traite de multiples questions qui sont fondamentales du point de vue de l’efficacité des services d’orientation professionnelle, par exemple : comment élargir l’accès à l’orientation professionnelle ? Comment améliorer la qualité de l’information sur les métiers et les professions ? Comment s’assurer que les qualifications du personnel correspondent aux objectifs de l’action gouvernementale ? Enfin, comment améliorer le pilotage stratégique dans ce domaine ?

    Abstract: Die OECD-Länder messen dem lebenslangen Lernen und der aktiven Beschäftigungspolitik als Instrumente zur Förderung von Wirtschaftswachstum und sozialer Gerechtigkeit zunehmende Bedeutung bei. Effektive Informations- und Beratungssysteme sind wesentliche Grundlagen für die Umsetzung dieser Maßnahmen, und alle Bürger müssen sich die notwendigen Kompetenzen aneignen, um ihre eigene berufliche Laufbahn steuern zu können. Zwischen diesen Politikzielen und den Kapazitäten der nationalen Bildungs- und Berufsberatungssysteme besteht aber noch eine große Kluft. So ist der Zugang zu Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdiensten, vor allem für Erwachsene, begrenzt. Statt ihren Kunden die Fähigkeit zu vermitteln, ihre berufliche Entwicklung selbst in die Hand zu nehmen, konzentrieren sich die Beratungsstellen zu oft auf gerade anstehende Fragen und Entscheidungen. Ferner sind die Ausbildungs- und Qualifikationssysteme für die Anbieter der Beratungsdienste häufig unzureichend und unangemessen. Die Koordinierung zwischen den wichtigsten Ministerien und den übrigen Beteiligten lässt viel zu wünschen übrig. Die politischen Entscheidungsträger verfügen nicht über hinreichende Daten- und Erfahrungsgrundlagen, um die Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdienste sachgerecht steuern zu können, wobei es an Daten sowohl zu Kosten und Nutzen als auch zu Kundenmerkmalen und Ergebnissen mangelt. Und was das konkrete Angebot an Beratungsdiensten betrifft, so wird zu wenig Gebrauch gemacht von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien (IKT) und anderen kosteneffektiven Mitteln, um flexibler auf die Kundenbedürfnisse eingehen zu können. Ausgehend von einer in 14 OECD-Ländern durchgeführten Prüfung wird in dieser Veröffentlichung untersucht, wie die Kluft zwischen Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdiensten einerseits und öffentlicher Politik andererseits verringert werden könnte. Es wird dafür plädiert, die Koordinierung auf nationaler Ebene zu verbessern und sich verstärkt um Forschung und Datenerfassung zu bemühen, um die politischen Entscheidungsträger mit hinreichenden Informationen versorgen zu können. In dem Bericht werden ferner bessere, fachspezifischere Ausbildungsprogramme für die Praktiker der Bildungs- und Berufsberatung sowie die Einrichtung stärker spezialisierter Einrichtungen für Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdienste empfohlen.

    Abstract: The article explores whether the idea of a nexus between research and teaching is still influential, what meanings are attached to it and within what concepts of higher education. It draws on research into the perceptions of two groups of actors, academics and students, and some recent scholarly analyses of the issues. It argues that the idea of the nexus is still important to academics and a range of students. It is embedded in a world in which academic definitions of knowledge and higher education remain largely dominant. The recent writings examined are attempts to tighten the conceptual connections between teaching and research ...

    Abstract: This report presents the first internationally comparable results to OECD's 2003 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) Survey of the educational performance of 15-year-olds in reading, mathematics, and science in 25 OECD countries. This year, the concentration was on mathematics. Beyond the examination of the relative standing of countries in mathematics, science and reading, the report also looks at a wider range of educational outcomes that include students’ motivation to learn, their beliefs about themselves, and their learning strategies. Furthermore, it examines how performance varies between the genders and between socio-economic groups; and it provides insights into some of the factors that influence the development of knowledge and skills at home and at school, how these factors interact and what the implications are for policy development. Most importantly, the report sheds light on countries that succeed in achieving high performance standards while, at the same time, providing an equitable distribution of learning opportunities. The report presents a wealth of indicators showing how countries compare in various measures of educational performance and factors that affect that performance.

    Abstract: This paper examines the development of policies designed to widen access to higher education policy in the United Kingdom. These policies have evolved in the context of the devolution of political authority to the Scottish Parliament and Assemblies in Wales and Northern Ireland, which has resulted in some policy variation. The paper examines the “post-code premium” paid by the funding authorities to universities based on the students from poorer areas. By using Northern Ireland data the paper demonstrates the major problems to this approach arising from the “ecological fallacy”. The paper concludes by expressing surprise that policy developed with little apparent awareness of these problems....

    Abstract: Today's "knowledge economies" are seeing the emergence of new paradigms for innovation and the advancement of knowledge in relation to economic activities. This report explores some key determinants of innovation and their implications for the advancement of knowledge in a particular sector – primary and secondary education. The analysis shows that there is considerable scope for certain drivers that have helped speed up innovation in other sectors to take effect in education. However, in practice, a number of basic characteristics of education systems have prevented innovation from changing this sector fundamentally. Nevertheless, educational policy makers can learn much from observing how innovation occurs and how sectors are transformed in the most knowledge intensive parts of the economy.

    Abstract: Earthquakes and other natural disasters are unpredictable, and often deadly. In developed and developing countries alike, the cost in human life and infrastructure is very high. The danger to schools is of particular concern, given the concentration of young people attending them, and schools' broader role in communities -- not the least of which is their common use as places of refuge after an earthquake or other disaster.

    Abstract: This paper assesses some of the framework issues, of policy and provision, which affect the connections between teaching and research in higher education. The presumption of an essential linkage between research and teaching has in recent years been eroded by the sheer quantities of the system. In spite of the enduring appeal of the Humboldtian model, it was not always assumed in the UK and is not assumed in many other systems. The arguments for and against the connection are noted and assessed. The arguments in favour are mainly in terms of the advantages to research; and arguments from teaching are more ...

    Abstract: La coopération universitaire internationale est en mutation permanente. Son avenir dépend de forces extérieures telles que la globalisation et l’internationalisation, mais aussi des décisions des pouvoirs publics. De nombreuses organisations universitaires internationales procèdent à un audit de leurs programmes et de leurs initiatives, mais elles en sont arrivées au point où l’efficience des mesures d’assurance qualité se trouve remise en cause. Les directeurs d’établissement se trouvent confrontés à une baisse du moral et ils comptent sur les actions internationales pour conforter leurs espérances et leurs perspectives ; ces actions s’inspirent davantage de la rationalité économique que de l’altruisme. Même si les données actuelles laissent à penser que les approches de coopération internationale émanant de la base ont davantage de chances de survivre au changement, on s’en remet souvent aux directives énoncées par les instances dirigeantes pour fixer la ligne d’action. Exploitant les résultats d’une étude récemment actualisée, cet article passe en revue les programmes et les initiatives les plus marquants, qui n’auraient jamais vu le jour sans l’intervention de décideurs soucieux de défendre et de promouvoir la coopération universitaire internationale. C’est dans cet esprit que l’on procède ici à un réexamen de la Gestalttheorie de Wertheimer....

    Abstract: Across OECD countries, governments, policy makers and university managers are examining the future of higher education and questioning the role of educational research. These discussions are taking place against the backdrop that knowledge production and the contribution of higher education to the economy and the prestige and standing of nations is rapidly transforming the once benign higher education system into a competitive market place. Moreover, many governments believe the existing system of funding and/or organisation is no longer sustainable. Should research funding be spread equitably across many institutions or should only a few concentrate on research and the rest focus on teaching and training? If massification was a major force on higher education in OECD countries in the latter half of the 20th century, then competition driven in part by institutional research capacity is playing a similar role in the early 21st century. These forces are influencing in a very directive way how individual institutions are organising and managing themselves. This article looks at the specific challenges faced by new and emerging higher education institutions of growing research from a “fragile base”. In the process, their experiences raise wider questions for both higher education institutions and governments...

    Abstract: Dans chaque pays, petit ou grand, la science et la technologie (S-T) revêtent une importance primordiale dans l’instauration d’une économie basée sur le savoir. Dans les pays appartenant au peloton de tête, la S-T porte ses fruits quand elle est induite par des politiques scientifiques favorisant les programmes à long terme. Et ces programmes sont étroitement liés à une maîtrise anticipative des coûts budgétaires. En Bulgarie, le secteur des sciences et de la technologie reflète bon nombre des difficultés économiques et sociales que rencontre le pays dans son ensemble. Il souffre d’un manque chronique de moyens financiers et a mis du temps à moderniser son appareil de recherche fondamentale. Faute d’une politique cohérente à long terme dans le domaine scientifique et technologique, ces insuffisances se trouvent accentuées. Malgré ces lacunes, l’examen montre que la Bulgarie possède le potentiel humain et scientifique nécessaire à la mise en place d’un système efficace de S-T qui peut considérablement contribuer au développement économique national. Cet examen présente un panorama du secteur de la S-T en Bulgarie et de ses liens avec l’enseignement. Il traite de divers thèmes au nombre desquels : La législation. Les mécanismes institutionnels mis en place dans le domaine de la recherche et de l’enseignement, notamment à travers les exemples de l’Académie bulgare des sciences et des établissements d’enseignement supérieur. Les mécanismes de budgétisation. La coopération régionale et internationale, et notamment les initiatives de l’Union européenne. L’impact de la fuite des cerveaux et du vieillissement sur les ressources humaines. Un échantillon d’études de cas et de pratiques exemplaires en matière de politique de S-T sert à illustrer l’analyse. Le dernier chapitre comprend une série de recommandations. Cet examen sera utile aux décideurs publics ainsi qu’aux professionnels du monde entier. Cette étude s'inscrit dans le cadre des relations de coopération que l'OCDE entretient avec les économies non membres à travers le monde.

    Keywords: Education ; New Zealand
    Abstract: New Zealand’s special funding system allows state schools a greater level of independence in managing their property compared to most other countries. Schools receive a fixed budget as an entitlement from the three “pots” of the educational property funding structure. The government’s unique use of accrual accounting together with a new Five-Year Property Plan agreement gives schools a high degree of certainty of the property funding available, as well as responsibility for deciding how to modernise their own buildings.

    Abstract: On évalue dans cet article quelques-unes des questions fondamentales qui concernent les grandes orientations et les prestations, et retentissent sur les rapports entre l’enseignement et la recherche dans l’enseignement supérieur. Le postulat d’un rapport essentiel entre l’enseignement et la recherche est battu en brèche depuis quelques années par l’ampleur même du système. Malgré l’attrait durable du modèle humboldtien, il n’a pas toujours été adopté au Royaume-Uni et ne l’est pas du tout dans maints autres systèmes. Les arguments pour et contre ce rapport sont notés et évalués. Les arguments favorables concernent surtout les avantages pour la recherche ; les arguments relevant de l’enseignement sont plus difficiles à spécifier. Ces deux séries de considérations impliquent ...

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Évaluation du cycle d'orientation de Montbrillant en Suisse
    Keywords: Education ; Switzerland
    Abstract: Does Geneva’s Montbrillant lower secondary school, which has now been in use for one year, meet the objectives targeted when it was designed? Does the new school respond to the needs and expectations of staff and students? Questions such as these serve to evaluate the quality of a school building once in use and tie in with work supported by PEB on post-occupancy evaluation. For the design of Montbrillant, the Geneva authorities promoted specific integrated concepts; to verify to what extent these were successfully incorporated into the building, the author contacted the school’s users, i.e. its management, administrative and technical staff, teachers, and students. Although their overall appreciation was positive, the users expressed dissatisfaction with many aspects of the facilities as described below.

    Abstract: Dialogue between the leaders of academic clinical organisations in different countries has revealed that the core elements of the partnership between universities and health care systems are remarkably consistent across national boundaries. There is now an impetus to move beyond analysis of common challenges and towards strategies for success that draw on international experience. This paper summarises some of the conclusions that emerged when leaders of teaching hospitals, health care systems, health professional schools and universities met to learn from international experience and to identify strategies for success. The conclusion reached is that these organisations must articulate their unique role in national health systems, communicate their ...

On constate actuellement une dynamique visant à aller au-delà de l’analyse des problèmes communs et à élaborer des stratégies appelées à réussir sur la base de l’expérience internationale. Le présent document récapitule certaines des conclusions qui se sont dégagées lorsque des directeurs d’hôpitaux universitaires, de systèmes de santé, d’écoles professionnelles de santé et d’universités se sont réunis pour tirer les leçons de l’expérience internationale et mettre au point des stratégies susceptibles d’être couronnées de succès. La conclusion à laquelle ils sont parvenus est que ces organisations doivent articuler le rôle unique qui est le leur dans les systèmes de santé nationaux, communiquer leurs valeurs ...

    Abstract: Dans les pays de l’OCDE, pouvoirs publics, décideurs et gestionnaires universitaires s’intéressent à l’avenir de l’enseignement supérieur et s’interrogent sur le rôle de la recherche dans le cadre de l’enseignement. Le débat s’inscrit dans un contexte marqué par le fait que la production de savoir et la contribution de l’enseignement supérieur à l’économie, au prestige et au statut d’un pays sont en train de transformer rapidement le système d’enseignement supérieur : le laisser-faire cède la place à la concurrence du marché. De nombreux gouvernements sont par ailleurs convaincus que le système actuel de financement et d’organisation ne pourra pas perdurer. Le financement de la recherche doit-il se répartir équitablement entre les différents établissements ou bien faut-il au contraire que seuls certains établissements se concentrent sur la recherche, les autres se consacrant à l’enseignement et à la formation ? Si au cours de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle la massification a imposé sa logique à l’enseignement supérieur dans les pays de l’OCDE, c’est désormais la concurrence, liée en partie à la capacité de recherche, qui joue un rôle analogue au début de ce XXIe siècle. Cette logique pèse de manière assez marquée sur le mode d’organisation et de gestion des établissements. L’article examine les défis spécifiques que doivent relever les établissements d’enseignement supérieur récents ou en cours de création pour développer leur activité de recherche à partir d’une base « fragile ». En cours de processus, leur expérience soulève des questions plus vastes pour les établissements comme pour les pouvoirs publics...

    Abstract: Since 1997, the Canadian federal government has introduced a variety of new incentives to enhance significantly the funding of university research in this country. While these funding initiatives have been welcomed by Canadian universities, they are accompanied by a heightened emphasis on accountability which dictates new eligibility conditions for universities’ access to these funds. Given that research and innovation have become more central and significant spending categories for the federal public purse, universities in Canada are increasingly subject to public scrutiny, due to concerns for public accountability and safety. The new programs often involve more strategic central co-ordination and consequently require that the university administration, and not just faculty, justify funding requests. Universities are also expected to demonstrate compliance with a growing array of federally codified guidelines and regulations. These federal expectations of accountability are multiplying as both the investment in research and the different types of funding ...

    Abstract: Ces dernières année, l’auteur a mené 126 entretiens et organisé quatre groupes de discussion avec des universitaires, des administrateurs et d’autres personnes ayant un lien avec des universités australiennes au sujet des problèmes et des enjeux auxquels, selon eux, le système d’enseignement supérieur est confronté. Inquiétude et pessimisme ont dominé les entretiens consacrés à l’avenir de l’enseignement supérieur en Australie. Parmi les personnes interrogées, trois sur quatre environ estimaient que le système était pire, ou en tout cas pas meilleur, que dix ans auparavant. Une proportion analogue avait peu d’espoir que le système s’améliore au cours des dix années suivantes, à supposer qu’il ne se dégrade pas davantage. Dans cet article l’auteur décrit ce qu’il considère comme étant des obstacles ...

Widespread concern and pessimism pervaded the interviews about the future of tertiary education in Australia. Approximately three quarters of the interviewees said that the system was worse, or certainly no better, today than a decade ago; a similar number held out little hope that the system would improve, if not deteriorate further, in a decade. In this article the author outlines what he sees as systemic barriers to change and then offers suggestions for ...

    Abstract: International university co-operation is in a constant state of metamorphosis. Its future rests upon extraneous forces such as globalization and internationalization and also upon those who make policy decisions. Many international university organizations are auditing their programs and initiatives to such a degree that the cost effectiveness of such quality control measures are put into question. Institutional leaders are often forced to contend with low morale, trying their best to bolster a sense of hope, meaning and potential to international initiatives that are more likely to be financially sound than altruistic. Although current data suggest that bottom-top approaches to international co-operation are more likely to withstand the changes of time, it is often left to top-bottom directives to set a course for action. Drawing upon a specific and recently updated research study, this paper examines salient programs and initiatives that would otherwise not exist had it not been for certain policy makers who have actively advocated and promoted international university co-operation. It is in this vein that Wertheimer’s Gestalt approach is re-examined....

    Abstract: Les systèmes éducatifs du monde entier continuent de dépendre en grande mesure des sources publiques de financement. Les dépenses consacrées à l’enseignement supérieur sont couvertes à près de 80 % par les fonds publics dans les pays de l’OCDE et cette proportion est plus forte encore dans les pays en développement. Nombre de pays s’efforcent actuellement de réduire cette dépendance vis-à-vis des crédits publics et de s’orienter vers des réformes plus fondées sur le jeu du marché. Ils doivent, pour ce faire, aménager le cadre des politiques macroéconomiques afin d’entraîner des changements au niveau des établissements. Les changements institutionnels peuvent être induits au moyen de « mandats » ou de « récompenses ». Les mandats exigent des établissements qu’ils adoptent une forme particulière de comportement institutionnel et s’assortissent d’une menace de sanctions en cas de non respect de ces directives. En revanche, les récompenses offrent des motivations et des incitations au changement. Récompenses et incitations prennent effet quand l’action des pouvoirs publics donne aux établissements la possibilité de choisir dans quel sens ils vont modifier leur comportement. La motivation d’un changement de comportement dépend d’une part, du niveau de performance qui conditionne l’attribution d’une récompense et d’autre part, de la récompense que l’on peut attendre de la réalisation de la tâche entreprise. En général, les mandats sont plus facilement respectés quand les établissements luttent pour survivre, alors qu’il est préférable de recourir aux incitations et aux récompenses quand les établissements s’efforcent de revivre et de se développer. On compte dans bon nombre de pays sur les systèmes d’incitations et de récompenses pour faire advenir les changements dans l’enseignement supérieur. Il est question dans cet article de la possibilité de faire changer les établissements grâce aux incitations....

    Abstract: Networked learning is learning in which information and communications technology (ICT) is used to promote connections: between one learner and other learners; between learners and tutors; between a learning community and its learning resources. Networked learning is an area which has great practical and theoretical importance. It is a rapidly growing area of educational practice, particularly in higher education and the corporate sector. This volume brings together some of the best research in the field, and uses it to signpost some directions for future work. The papers in this collection represent a major contribution to our collective sense of recent progress in research on networked learning. In addition, they serve to highlight some of the largest or most important gaps in our understanding of students' perspectives on networked learning, patterns of interaction and online discourse, and the role of contextual factors. The range of topics and methods addressed in these papers attests to the vitality of this important field of work. More significant yet is the complex understanding of the field that they combine to create. In combination, they help explain some of the key relationships between teachers' and learners' intentions and experiences, the affordances of text-based communications technologies and processes of informed and intelligent educational change. This volume will prove very valuable to researchers and teachers working in (higher) education and corporate education.

    Abstract: What Is Science? -- On Education -- On a Science of Education -- A Science of Mathematical Education.
    Abstract: A title that sounds like poetry, and a subtitle that seems to contradict the title! But the subtitle is right, and originally it was just the title. A strange subtitle, isn’t it? Preface to a Science of Mathematical Education. All sciences – in their prenatal stage – have known this kind of literature: only the term used was not ‘Preface’, but, for instance, ‘Prolegomena’, which * means the same though it sounds less provisional. In fact such works were thicker than the present one, by up to ten times. There is much more that can be said about a science before it comes into being than after; with the first results comes modesty. This is the preface to a book that will never be written: not by me, nor by anybody else. Once a science of mathematical education exists, it will get the preface it deserves. Nevertheless this preface – or what for honesty’s sake I have labelled so – must fulfil a function: the function of accelerating the birth of a science of mathematical education, which is seriously impeded by the unfounded view that such already exists. Against this view I have to argue: it rests on a wrong estimation – both over and under estimation at the same time – of what is to be considered as science.

    Abstract: For a meaningful understanding of physics, it is necessary to realise that this corpus of knowledge operates in a register different from natural thought. This book aims at situating the main trends of common reasoning in physics with respect to some essential aspects of accepted theory. It analyses a great many research results based on studies of pupils and students at various academic levels, involving a range of physical situations. It shows the impressive generality of the trends of common thought, as well as their resistance to teaching. The book's main focus is to underline to what extent natural thought is organised. As a result of this mapping out of trends of reasoning, some suggestions for teaching are presented; these have already influenced recent curricula in France. This book is intended for teachers and teacher trainers principally, but students can also benefit from it to improve their understanding of physics and of their own ways of reasoning.

    Abstract: Sakellariou and Patrinos analyze the equity effects of public subsidization of private schools in Côte d'Ivoire, update previous analyses, and attempt to assess how efficiently public spending is targeted. The subsidy per student in private (and public) schools increases at higher quintiles. Students from families in the highest quintile receive more than twice the subsidy received by students from families in the lowest quintile, compared with four times more in the case of students attending public schools. However, the subsidy system is progressive as there is a clear tendency for the share of family education expenditure covered by subsidies to decline at higher quintiles. This element of progressivity is stronger in the case of private school attendance. This paper—a product of the Education Sector Unit, Latin America and the Caribbean Region—is part of a larger effort in the region to evaluate education policies

    Abstract: A teacher may get good, even astounding, results from his pupils while he is teaching them and yet not be a good teacher; because it may be that, while his pupils are directly under his influence, he raises them to a height which is not natural to them, without fostering their own capacities for work at this level, so that they immediately decline again as soon as the teacher leaves the classroom. Ludwig Wittgenstein, 1889 – 1951. It is difficult to measure effectiveness in not-for-profit organisations like schools, colleges and universities. There is no ‘bottom-line’ against which to gauge performance, they have limited technical development and managers struggle to make meaningful comparisons between outcomes and targets. In education, well-publicised attempts have been made to establish - some would say impose - a set of criteria by which organisations judge success or failure. These have been largely subjective - the percentage of inspected classes regarded as good, the extent to which staff is involved in decision making, the appropriateness of the leadership shown by senior managers, and so on – if occasionally peppered with quantitative measures, like the percentage of students achieving certain grades in public examinations, to sustain the illusion of objectivity. This is not to fault the aspiration necessarily, though initially at least it created a surveillance culture in schools that did justice to neither the inspected nor the argument for inspection. Happily, this is changing.

    Abstract: Hopkins, Bruce Joyce, Michael Huberman, Matthew Miles, and Virginia Richardson. But we have chosen to present our own experience and empirical data first and then, in Part 3, to show how this experience and data relates to models which have been proposed by others. We will address here methodological issues concerned with collecting and interpreting evidence of relationships amongst the many individual and situational factors associated with PD, and re-visit the arguments about ‘process-product’ research on PD. In the light of our experience, we will interrogate models of PD which have been proposed by others and attempt to move forward our total understanding of the process of the professional development of teachers for educational change. In conclusion, we will look at some current national practice in professional development, concentrating on the recent English experience of introducing ‘strategies’ into schools but referring also, by way of contrast, to the situation in the United States. WHAT’S THE PROBLEM? Why has the professional development of teachers already exercised so many good minds for so long? And how can we justify adding another book to this field? The answer to both questions must lie in the continuing demand from society in general (at least as interpreted by politicians and newspaper editors) for improvements in the quality of education.

    Abstract: About the Book Series The idea for the Book Series “Innovation and Change in Professional Education” (ICPE) was born in 1996. While working on another publication in this area, we noticed that professional educators faced similar problems without even knowing from each other. It was this observation that resulted in examining the possibilities for a new publication platform about professional education with input from different professions. We wanted to develop a publication source that would bring together educators and researchers to exchange ideas and knowledge about theory, research and professional practice. But we were not only striving for a book series informing readers about important themes in the professions. A second goal was to focus on processes of change and innovation. We were heavily involved in innovations going on in our institutions, and were convinced that a better understanding was needed in a wide range of issues critically important to the future of professional education. It was our belief that scholarly publications about innovation processes may support fundamental change in professional education. ICPE reflects our view that professional education deserves such a publication platform. It aims to approach critical questions of educational innovations, and to examine dynamics of educational change in various professional domains in the context of innovation processes. The books will include contributions from frontline practitioners, leading researchers, or distinguished scholars in professional education, delivering reports of empirical or theoretical research, reviews, interpretations of evaluation studies, or descriptions of innovative approaches.

    Abstract: A Dutch policy scientist once said the information and knowledge in the twenty-first century has the shelf life of fresh fish, and learning in this age often means learning where and how to find something and how to relate it to a specific situation instead of knowing everything one needs to know. On top of this, the world has become so highly interconnected that we have come to realise that every decision that we make can have repercussions somewhere else. To touch as many bases as possible, we need to work with knowledgeable others from different fields (multiple agents) and take heed of their points of view (multiple representations). To do this, we make increasing use of computers and computer-mediated communication. If computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) is not simply a newly discovered hype in education, what is it and why are we writing a book about it? Dissecting the phrase into its constituent parts, we see that first of all CSCL is about learning, and in the twenty-first century this usually means constructivist learning.

    Abstract: This volume presents a rich account of the development of accreditation and evaluation in 20 European countries. The authors are leaders in the field and they have cooperated in this effort by writing richly different, often deep and insightful analyses of the situation in their country. The two editors have added a synopsis detailing the main trends, and sketching commonalities as well as contrasts in the developments across Europe. The book shows how accreditation is becoming a main mechanism in the steering of higher education all over Europe. The book is unique in its analysis of forces driving towards the spread of different models of accreditation in the emerging European Higher Education area. Readers will obtain an up-to-date picture of the state of affairs of accreditation in the framework of evaluation activities in Europe. They will gain an understanding of why accreditation and evaluation systems have evolved the way they have, and subsequently, they will obtain more realistic views on potentialities for European comparability and cooperation in this area.

    Abstract: This book examines mathematics education research from socio-political perspectives. It is organized in dialogic units which examine issues such as the critique of existing research results based on the adoption of socio-political approaches; the implications of alternative theoretical tools in researching mathematics education; the tensions emerging while conducting research in highly conflictive environments; the researchers’ positioning with respect to research participants; and the adoption of socio-political methodological frameworks. As a whole, the book serves to illuminate what it means to say that power is a central constituent of mathematics education practices and research. This book will be of interest to researchers in mathematics education and general education as well as to graduate students taking courses on mathematics education research.
