Book Synopsis Recurrent Education and Socioeconomic Success by : Albert Tuijnman
Download or read book Recurrent Education and Socioeconomic Success written by Albert Tuijnman and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data from the Malmo (Sweden) longitudinal study were examined for the effects of continuing adult educational attainment and formal schooling on subsequent socioeconomic achievement over the life span of the individual worker. The results suggest that acquired level of formal schooling directly influences occupational success and earnings in the early, middle, and late phases of the career cycle investigated. The effect of continuing education attainment on occupational success increases considerably from age 35 to 52. The results do not indicate that continuing education exerts a significant effect on earnings. Continuing education may function as a second road to occupational mobility partially independent of acquired level of formal schooling. The results generated, however, do not lend support to the assumption that recurrent adult education may significantly affect the relative earnings differentials between the various status groups in society. (Part 1 of this document establishes the theoretical analysis and conceptual frameworks of continuing education. Part 2 reviews Swedish developments from 1960-1985. Part 3 describes the aims, methodology, and findings of the 45-year Malmo study. Appendices contain 24 tables, and a list of over 300 references is included. (CML)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study investigated the contribution of adult education in complementing and mediating the effects of early formal schooling on life chances, job satisfaction, and general well-being. Data collected for the cohort of Swedish men followed up in the Malmo study from 1938 to 1988 were examined. The study used measures of home background, disposition to learn in the classroom, cognitive ability assessed in childhood and early adulthood, youth educational attainment, and indicators of occupational status, earned income, job satisfaction, and well-being measured during the early, middle, and late stages of life career. Measures of participation in adult education were available from 30 to 56 years of age. Path models were investigated using linear structural relations analysis. The findings indicate that: (1) youth education influences participation in adult education at all ages; (2) early participation in adult education also influences adult participation during subsequent periods; (3) relative to the diminishing effects of youth education on occupational status after 30 years of age, the effects of adult education on occupational status increase with increasing age; and (4) the direct effects of youth education on earnings increase sharply from 25 to 40 years of age and diminish gradually thereafter. The study concludes that research that has used short-term indicators of the effects of adult education has underestimated the contribution of adult education because participants have not been followed up for a sufficient length of time. In general, participants in adult education regard their lives as more worthwhile, full, rich, and interesting than those who do not take part. (Over 270 references, 43 tables, and 23 figures are included.) (Author/CML)

Book excerpt: Participation in recurrent education and the financing of recurrent education are discussed from the experiences of countries belonging to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Recurrent education encompasses lifelong learning. The influences of socioeconomic and technological change on recurrent education and employment are addressed. Two approaches to assess participation in recurrent education are considered: an individual/psychological approach and a statistical approach. A research review of participation in recurrent education covers theories of motivation and analysis of valence and expectancy in terms of adult education. Included is an outline of findings of specific studies concerning adults' motives for participation in education, impediments to recruitment, and the influence of adults' self-evaluation on participation. A model accounting for participation in adult education is presented. Power within the workplace and the economy and implications for recurrent education are also addressed.

Book Synopsis Education, Social Background and Cognitive Ability by : Gary N. Marks
Download or read book Education, Social Background and Cognitive Ability written by Gary N. Marks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are socioeconomic inequalities in education declining? Is socioeconomic background becoming less important for people’s occupational class or status? How important is cognitive ability for education and later occupational outcomes? How do countries differ in the importance of socioeconomic background for education and work? Gary N. Marks argues that in western industrialized countries, pervasive views that socioeconomic background (or class background) has strong and unchanging relationships with education and later socioeconomic outcomes, resistant to policy and social change, are unfounded. Marks provides a large amount of evidence from many countries showing that the influence of socioeconomic background for education is moderate and most often declining, and socioeconomic background has only very weak impacts on adults’ occupation and earnings after taking into account education and cognitive ability. Furthermore, Marks shows that cognitive ability is a more powerful influence than socioeconomic background for educational outcomes, and that in addition to its indirect effects through education has a direct effect on occupation and earnings. Its effects cannot be dismissed as simply another aspect of socioeconomic background, nor do the usual criticisms of ‘cognitive ability’ apply. The declining effects for socioeconomic background and the importance of cognitive ability support several of the contentions of modernization theory. The book contributes to a variety of debates within sociology: quantitative and qualitative approaches, explanatory and non-explanatory theory, the relationship between theory and empirical research, the role of political ideology in research, sociology as a social science, and sociology’s contribution to knowledge about contemporary societies. It will appeal to professionals in the fields of education and sociology as well as postgraduate students and academics involved in the debate.

Book Synopsis Class and Schools by : Richard Rothstein
Download or read book Class and Schools written by Richard Rothstein and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary public policy assumes that the achievement gap between black and white students could be closed if only schools would do a better job. According to Richard Rothstein, "Closing the gaps between lower-class and middle-class children requires social and economic reform as well as school improvement. Unfortunately, the trend is to shift most of the burden to schools, as if they alone can eradicate poverty and inequality." In this book, Rothstein points the way toward social and economic reforms that would give all children a more equal chance to succeed in school. This book features: a summary of numerous studies linking school achievement to health care quality, nutrition, childrearing styles, housing stability, parental economic security, and more ; aA look at erroneous and misleading data that underlie commonplace claims that some schools "beat the demographic odds and therefore any school can close the achievement gap if only it adopted proper practices." ; and an analysis of how the over-emphasis of standardized tests in federal law obscures the true achievement gap and makes narrowing it more difficult.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these vivid, thought-provoking essays, leading scholars draw from their own life experiences to explore the ways in which socio-economic class has shaped their lives and educational practices. Some experienced the sting of poverty as students, while others tell stories of a privileged upbringing and moments of epiphany when they recognized the far-reaching effects of class privilege. Many in this volume tell stories of their successful (and not-so-successful) teaching experiences with students from various social classes, providing valuable insights for teachers and other education professionals.
