Book Synopsis Learning in School-University Partnership by : Amy B.M. Tsui
Download or read book Learning in School-University Partnership written by Amy B.M. Tsui and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-10-20 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume looks at school-university partnerships from sociocultural perspectives of learning that view participation in social practice as fundamental to the process of learning. Its two major themes – school-university partnership and sociocultural and social theories of learning – have both been treated extensively in the literature. It is the bringing together of these two themes that makes this book unique. In this examination of an evolving model of school-university partnership, the Unified Professional Development Project in Hong Kong, the authors analyze the learning that takes place as the participants (student-teachers, mentor teachers, and university supervisors) mutually engage in the enterprise of improving teaching and learning in schools, developing shared practices, and creating new communities of practice. Although it describes one specific context, the book is not just about this locale. Rather, the Unified Professional Development Project is used as a context for theorizing more generally a social theory of learning for school-university partnerships that is relevant to any other similar context. This book will interest teacher educators, researchers in teacher education and teacher development, policy makers, and school practitioners who are involved in school-university partnerships.
Book Synopsis Decentralized Creditor-led Corporate Restructuring by : Marinela E. Dado
Download or read book Decentralized Creditor-led Corporate Restructuring written by Marinela E. Dado and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2002 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Countries that have experienced banking crises have adopted one of two distinct approaches toward the resolution of nonperforming assets--a centralized or a decentralized solution. A centralized approach entails setting up a government agency--an asset management company--with the full responsibility for acquiring, restructuring, and selling of the assets. A decentralized approach relies on banks and other creditors to manage and resolve nonperforming assets. Dado and Klingebiel study banking crises where governments adopted a decentralized, creditor-led workout strategy following systemic crises. They use a case study approach and analyze seven banking crises in which governments mainly relied on banks to resolve nonperforming assets. The study suggests that out of the seven cases, only Chile, Norway, and Poland successfully restructured their corporate sectors with companies attaining viable financial structures. The analysis underscores that as in the case of a centralized strategy the prerequisites for a successful decentralized restructuring strategy are manifold. The successful countries significantly improved the banking system's capital position, enabling banks to write down loan losses; banks as well as corporations had adequate incentives to engage in corporate restructuring; and ownership links between banks and corporations were limited or severed during crises. This paper--a product of the Financial Sector Operations and Policy Department--is part of a larger effort in the department to examine the resolution of financial crises.
Book Synopsis Subnational Debt Management and Restructuring by : Kahkonen, Satu
Download or read book Subnational Debt Management and Restructuring written by Kahkonen, Satu and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, policymakers around the world are focusing once again on government debt sustainability. In China, subnational government debt is an important part of total government debt, and therefore deserves the attention that policymakers have paid to the topic. Subnational debt has played an important role in financing China’s impressive infrastructure that is the envy of the world. It was instrumental in the economic stimulus that China so effectively staged after the global financial crisis, through which China maintained high levels of economic activity. This e-book reports on the proceedings of a joint P.R. China Ministry of Finance-World Bank international workshop on Subnational Debt Management held in Nanning, China in October 2015. Looking at both the Chinese perspective on this subject of subnational debt and selected international experiences along with experts’ perspectives together, we provide a syntheses of key issues which China needs to consider going forward in subnational debt management and restructuring. The roundtable discussion among international and Chinese experts oat the workshop on the way forward for China provided an illuminating discussion which highlighted the need for a transitional strategy for subnational financing, and the need to use debt sustainability as a guide for transition, which will involve tough fiscal policy choices and restructuring of the subnational economies concerned (not just debt restructuring alone). The urgency of strengthening budget and debt management prudent public investment prioritization and management in the subnational context cannot be emphasized enough.

Book Synopsis Belize's 2016-17 Sovereign Debt Restructuring - Third Time Lucky? by : Mr.Tamon Asonuma
Download or read book Belize's 2016-17 Sovereign Debt Restructuring - Third Time Lucky? written by Mr.Tamon Asonuma and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-05-22 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the causes, processes, and outcomes of Belize’s 2016–17 sovereign debt restructuring—its third episode in last 10 years. As was the case in the earlier two restructurings, in 2006–07 and in 2012–13, the 2016–17 debt restructuring was executed through collaborative engagement with creditors outside an IMF-supported program. While providing liquidity relief and partially addressing long-term debt sustainability concerns, the restructuring will need to be underpinned by ambitious fiscal consolidation and growth-enhancing structural reforms to secure durable gains.

Book Synopsis Corporate Restructuring and Its Macro Effects by : Mr.Jongsoon Shin
Download or read book Corporate Restructuring and Its Macro Effects written by Mr.Jongsoon Shin and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-01-27 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes issues in Korea’s corporate sector, the need for restructuring, and the authorities’ initiatives and challenges. It then identifies lessons from other countries’ experience and conducts an econometric analysis based on cross-country aggregate data, compared with previous studies which mostly use firm-level data. This analysis finds that restructuring episodes, while sometimes challenging in the short term, have typically been associated with more rapid economic growth afterward. Corporate restructuring could have a negative effect on the labor and the financial markets in the short term, but is associated with positive growth through increased investment and capital productivity in the medium term, outpacing the negative effects.

Book Synopsis The Idea of Education by : David Seth Preston
Download or read book The Idea of Education written by David Seth Preston and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2003 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents a 'position statement' from the intellectually vibrant and challenging debate that emanated from the inaugural conference project launch entitled 'The Idea of Education' held at Mansfield College, Oxford in July 2002. The book conveys a wide spectrum of views about 'the idea of education' in recognition of the fact that 'the idea' is not as straightforward as it may appear on the surface. It seems the universities are not alone in this apparent uncertainty of definition. Further Education seems equally nonplussed as regard its purpose or raison d'être. Furthermore, even for those within the sector, it appears to be a point of much contention as to where Further Education ends and Higher Education begins. The book is divided into three main sections: The Current Structures of Education, Issues within Contemporary Education and The Ambitions of Education. The chapters wrestle, sometimes at variance with each other, with the paradoxes and concerns felt by each writer grappling with the idea of education.
Book Synopsis Re-Envisioning and Restructuring Blended Learning for Underprivileged Communities by : Bosch, Chantelle
Download or read book Re-Envisioning and Restructuring Blended Learning for Underprivileged Communities written by Bosch, Chantelle and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-05-14 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenges in the educational arena are not new phenomena. However, with the recent outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers and educators have been made even more aware of the need for a paradigm shift in education. Blended learning, as opposed to fully online learning or traditional face-to-face teaching, has been well-researched and has been found to have the potential to provide better educational solutions in challenging contexts. These contexts range from pandemic situations where social distancing is the order of the day to financial and time constraints regarding full-time study, as well as limited physical capacity at institutions. Blended learning solutions are often designed for resourceful institutions and cannot be easily implemented in developing countries and in communities where resources are limited. Typical issues like connectivity, accessibility, lack of suitable devices, and affordability need to be taken into consideration and in cognizance of blended learning interventions. These challenges are often neglected in blended learning research but are critical discussions to be had. Re-Envisioning and Restructuring Blended Learning for Underprivileged Communities shares how institutions in the developing world and less privileged communities have re-imagined and restructured blended education to enhance teaching and learning for underprivileged communities. This book aims to address blended learning solutions across institutional, program, course, and activity levels. The chapters will cover a variety of learning environments, from rural settings to less developed countries and more, and explore the programs and courses designed to improve student success and accessibility in diverse student populations. This book is ideally intended for teachers, administrators, teacher educators, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students who are interested in blended learning opportunities in less-privileged settings and to underserved and marginalized populations.
