The volume aims to promote the scientific value of the data collected by the international OECD and IEA surveys carried out in 2015. In particular, as regards the IEA TIMSS and TIMSS Advanced surveys, the contributions focus on the incidence of behaviours and learning contexts of students on the development of skills in mathematics. Regarding the OECD PISA survey, the topics discussed are the relationship between cultural, cognitive and motivational factors and the relative empirical evidence, as well as the online media exposure of the survey. Finally, a last thematic section concerns the relationship between context variables and competences related to Financial Literacy.

Conversations about social education curricula largely neglect elements of spirituality and consciousness. This omission undermines the quality of the learning that occurs. This book presents spirituality as a legitimate basis for reframing these social decision-making by examining how revisiting notions of spirituality may redefine patterns of social relationships and financial choices. This work presents an interpretation of spirituality that offers the foundation for an alternative ideology to capitalist practices founded on principles of merit and blame. By acknowledging a spiritual sense of being, citizens may gain a renewed sense of personal responsibility toward community and social justice. The work draws from a fate-based ideology, which claims that individual and group choices originate from conditions outside their control. It describes art-based instructional processes that may stimulate students' affective awareness. It encourages facilitation of compassionate environments founded on principles of selflessness and provides a basis for conversation about the nature of social education and its foundations. This book represents an invaluable resource for researchers, leaders and practitioners in the field of social education.

Der produktive Gebrauch von Finanzdienstleistungen ist zum Schlüssel für die Teilhabe am modernen Wirtschaftsleben geworden. "Finanzielle Allgemeinbildung" soll in der Kommunikation zwischen Anbietern und Kunden die Fähigkeit beider Seiten erhöhen, Finanzdienstleistungen und Lebensbedürfnisse besser aufeinander abzustimmen. Ohne sie wird die moderne Kreditgesellschaft höhere Überschuldung, Ausschluss und Risiken vor allem für die unteren Bevölkerungsschichten mit sich bringen. Ansätze für eine »Finanzielle Allgemeinbildung« haben sich in der Bundesrepublik im Vergleich zu den USA und Großbritannien erst in Anfängen etabliert. Die vorliegende, mit Unterstützung des Bundesministeriums für Familie, Senioren, Frauen und Jugend im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojektes von 1999 und 2001 im Institut für Finanzdienstleistungen e.V. (iff) durchgeführte Untersuchung will diese Diskussion eröffnen. Sie setzt sich kritisch mit Bildungskonzepten in Deutschland und vergleichend in den USA und Großbritannien auseinander, ermittelt die Ziele sowie methodische Ansätze einer »Finanziellen Allgemeinbildung« aus der Perspektive eines sozialen Verbraucherschutzes. Prof. Dr. Udo Reifner ist Direktor des iff e.V.
