Book excerpt: Indicators in this volume provide international benchmarks for assessing the condition of education in U.S. states and in the United States as a whole by comparison with many other industrialized countries for which data are available. On six sets of indicators (37 indicators in all), country-level and state-level measures are arrayed side-by-side to facilitate comparison. The indicators are grouped into six categories: (1) background; (2) participation; (3) processes and institutions; (4) achievement and attainment; (5) labor market outcomes; and (6) finance. The presentation of each indicator includes an explanation of what it measures, why it is important, and key results from a comparison of countries and states. Throughout the report, comparisons are most often made in the text among like-sized entities. The presentation of each indicator also includes separate tables for states and countries and graphs that display states and countries together. Supplemental notes and a statistical appendix include supplemental and technical information on how measures in the indicators were calculated, and a glossary is included. (Contains 37 two-part tables and 37 figures, some of which have several parts.) (SLD)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Comparisons are among Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the U.K. and the U.S. Students in the U.S. perform well in comparison with their peers in other countries in reading and less well in geography and science; their weakest area is math.

Book Synopsis Values in Conflict by : Paul Axelrod
Download or read book Values in Conflict written by Paul Axelrod and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2002-03-14 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Values in Conflict is a clarion call to policy-makers, business leaders, and the public at large to rethink the current direction of the contemporary university. Paul Axelrod demonstrates that liberal education, the core of higher learning, is threatened by the constricting pressures of the marketplace and shows how political and economic pressures are redefining higher learning. Axelrod demonstrates how, in the race for riches - symbolized by endless rhetoric about the need for Canada to become globally competitive, technologically advanced, and proficient at churning out "knowledge workers" - our schools and universities are being forced by government policy to narrow their educational vistas. The decision-making autonomy that universities must have to provide cultural, intellectual, community-service, and training functions is being eroded. Values in Conflict explains why this is happening - and why it matters.

Book Synopsis Retooling the Mind Factory by : Alan Sears
Download or read book Retooling the Mind Factory written by Alan Sears and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alan Sears examines education reform in relation to a broad process of cultural and economic change. His book makes the case that education reform is one aspect of a broad-ranging neo-liberal agenda that aims to push the market deeper into every aspect of our lives by eliminating or shrinking non-market alternatives. The author begins by showing that advocates of education reform have had to make the case that the current system is not working. This sets the ground for an examination of the so-called 'Common Sense Revolution, ' a claim that drastic change was required to redesign government policies to fit a changing world. Lean production methods are a crucial component of this changing world, and broader social and cultural change is now required to consolidate the emerging order built on the spread of these methods. Education reform is designed to recast the relations of citizenship, contributing to the cultural and social change promoted through the social policy of the lean state.

Book Synopsis Is There a National Role in Education? by : Canadian Education Association
Download or read book Is There a National Role in Education? written by Canadian Education Association and published by Canadian Education Association. This book was released on 1994 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Papers in this volume are from a symposium on issues associated with a national presence in Canadian educational systems. The papers provide an overview of the rich and multi-faceted dimensions that guide and challenge Canadian educators in the current national policy debate. The first paper argues in favour of the traditional decentralised system of education, with a national role accomplished through initiation of dialogue and promotion of greater coherence at all levels. The second argues for a more legitimised and formalised national role in education, particularly as it relates to the federal government. The third explores the possibility of a common educational purpose in Canada and draws conclusions relating to culture, purpose, and curriculum. The final paper explores the critical linkages between economics and education, notably the relationship between educational levels and economic prosperity.
Book Synopsis Schoolteaching in Canada by : Alexander Lockhart
Download or read book Schoolteaching in Canada written by Alexander Lockhart and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1991-12-15 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually every Canadian has been influenced, for better or worse, by schoolteachers. Adults recall with clarity experiences with individual teachers; children are in contact with schoolteachers on a daily basis; parents know the importance of teachers in their children’s lives. Teachers are the key component in the hotly debated, heavily funded education systems across the country. Theirs is a profession at the centre of often contradictory interests: pedagogic, political, professional, and public. Alexander Lockhart offers a survey of elementary and secondary schoolteachers and presents a profile of the profession as a whole. Among the topics he discusses are the characteristics of today’s teachers, the conditions in which they work, their professional associations, career patterns in teaching, the political environment, current pedagogy, and the public interest. His findings reflect a profession in transition. In elementary schools two-thirds of teaching staff are women; in secondary schools two-thirds are men. Half of all Canada’s teachers are at mid-career, aged 35–49, and near the top of their salary levels. Teachers’ salaries have risen faster than the industrial composite in recent years, yet teachers are frustrated in their aspirations. As a group, Lockhart says, teachers have less autonomy than other professionals. Current policy directions and public attitudes aggravate this situation. Lockhart warns that the teaching profession is moving into crisis. The implications are serious, for our children, and for the quality of life throughout Canada as we look toward the twenty-first century.
Book Synopsis Restructuring and Resistance by : Mike Burke
Download or read book Restructuring and Resistance written by Mike Burke and published by Halifax, N.S. : Fernwood. This book was released on 2000 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This collection surveys major areas of neoliberal policy restructuring by various levels of Canadian government. Unlike other academic studies it also considers theoretical and practical issues connected with movements of resistance against the neo-liberal agenda. Part one situates these developments theoretically in the context of globalizing capitalism and the changing role of the state, the labour market, policy formation and federalism. Section two examines six major areas of policy restructuring, ranging from health care and education to human rights and communication policy. The final section considers the strengths and weaknesses of current political strategies of resistance and the new challenges imposed by global capitalist restructuring. This volume provides both a vital assessment of the social consequences of neoliberal restructuring and a provocative contribution to the debate over the renewal of the left in Canada."--pub. desc.
