Abstract

Un vent mauvais souffle sur l'école. Un certain pessimisme idéologique se conjugue aux amertumes et aux nostalgies pour accabler les politiques de démocratisation scolaire : elles auraient fait baisser le niveau général des élèves, condamné les plus méritants à ne pas se voir récompensés de leurs efforts, distribué des diplômes dont la valeur se déprécie, exposé au déclassement un nombre croissant de jeunes qualifiés. Dressant le bilan de ces politiques à une échelle rarement envisagée, Éric Maurin démonte méthodiquement chacun de ces mythes. Non seulement l'expansion scolaire a " payé ", mais sa poursuite s'avère décisive pour faire face au nouveau monde économique qui s'annonce. Puisant clans les expériences scandinaves, britanniques, américaines, chiliennes, australiennes. , ce livre permet de repenser en profondeur les relations entre éducation et économie, à contre-courant des interprétations sociologiques et des humeurs politiques aujourd'hui dominantes.

Abstract

The debate is no longer whether to use information and communication technologies (ICT) in education in Africa but how to do so, and how to ensure equitable access for teachers and learners, whether in urban or rural settings. This is a book about how Africans adopt and adapt ICT. It is also about how ICT shape African schools and classrooms. Why do we use ICT, or not? Do girls and boys use them in the same ways? How are teachers and students in primary and secondary schools in Africa using ICT in teaching and learning? How does the process transform relations among learners, educators and know

Abstract

"Peer reviewed e-journal for researchers, practitioners, and activists concerned with critical (e.g. poststructural, feminist, postcolonial, traditionally marginalized) examinations of childhood policy conceptualizations and practices locally and globally. Research projects and theoretical papers related to complexity, social justice, equity, and the reconstitution/reinscription of oppression/privilege are highly encouraged. The journal focuses on research/critiques that address issues of power by asking questions like: Who/what is harmed or excluded? Who/what is privileged? What are the assumptions that underly conceptualizations and practices? Are there unanticipated, impositions of power? Do policy agendas lead to greater possibilities for justice and opportunity for more children, or are new forms of power over others inscribed?"

Abstract

Persuasive evidence demonstrates that gender equality in education is central to economic development. Despite more than two decades of accumulated knowledge and evidence of what works in improving gender equality, progress on the ground remains slow and uneven across countries. What is missing? Given that education is a critical path to accelerate progress toward gender equality and the empowerment of women, what is holding us back? These questions were discussed at the global symposium Education: A Critical Path to Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment, which was sponsored by the World Ban
