Sharing Malaysian experience in participation of girls in STEM education Год публикации: 2016 Организация-автор: UNESCO International Bureau of Education (IBE) The Malaysia government has placed STEM as a focus in developing the country towards achieving the status of a developed nation. The government acknowledges the role of women as equal partners in nation building. Thus, various policies ranging from economy, education, women’s welfare and human resources have been formulated through the years. These policies have resulted in among others, the increase in women researchers from 35.8% in 2004 to 49.9% in 2012 as well as more women’s participation in selected STEM courses at the tertiary level. A total of 84 girls’ day schools with 6 of them as residential STEM Girls’ schools have been built since 1939. There are many female role models in STEM for the girls to emulate. This has been made possible by the successful implementation of the various policies related to women in STEM as well as innovative measures in facing the continuing challenges in STEM education.
Ten Clues for Rethinking Curriculum (In-Progress Reflection; No. 42, 2021) Год публикации: 2021 Автор: Renato Opertti Организация-автор: UNESCO International Bureau of Education (IBE) This discussion document highlights the urgency of rethinking curriculum in light of reinforcing the commitments of the Education 2030 Agenda on learning, disruptive systemic worldwide societal changes, and crucially, the profound transformation of education and education systems post Covid-19. Curriculum is always at the core of giving effect to social aspirations and ideals on the why, what, how, when, and where of teaching, learning, and assessing. We propose a series of 10 interconnected clues to deepen on the systemic and holistic understanding of curriculum as contributing to lay foundations for a better, sustainable and fair future. These clues are: understanding the new generations; combatting factors related to vulnerability; reinforcing understanding between school and families; deepening glo-local education; enhancing the focus on the person; promoting synergies among values; valuing diversity; focusing on education that enhances freedom; moving toward hybrid modes of education; and inspiring affection for educators.
2013 Asia-Pacific Education Research Institutes Network (ERI-Net) regional study on: transversal competencies in education policy and practice (Phase I): regional synthesis report Год публикации: 2015 Организация-автор: UNESCO Bangkok The Asia-Pacific region has been spearheading global, social, and economic development for the last several decades. Millions of people have been lifted out of poverty and basic education (primary and lower secondary) has become near universal in many countries in the region. Upper secondary and higher education enrollment rates have also increased significantly. However, while these are tremendous achievements, education quality remains a major concern among emerging economies and industrialized nations alike. While some countries in the region excel in international assessments, such as the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), and the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), other countries still attain low scores. National assessment results of countries that have not participated in international assessments reveal large knowledge and skills disparities among students of the same country. In some cases the results also indicate a very low attainment level of basic skills, even after years of schooling.At the same time, the debate surrounding what actually constitutes quality education and learning in the 21st century is ongoing. There is a growing concern that education systems are focusing too much on the accumulation of academic “cognitive” skills at the expense of the more elusive and hard-to-measure “nonacademic” skills and competencies. The accumulation of these skills and competencies, which include skills and competencies in efficient communication with others, innovative thinking, respect for diversity and the environment, conflict resolution, team work, problem solving, and so on, is not only important for students to be adequately prepared for the world of work, but is also paramount in ensuring future generations are equipped to live meaningful, sustainable, and responsible lives in a rapidly changing and interconnected world.1 The effects of the limited attention paid to such skills and competencies in education can be felt in a number of domains and include, for example: poor respect for diversity (including socio-economic, ethnic, and gender equality), neglect of environmental issues, and a lack of innovation and social entrepreneurship among students.To counter these challenges, many countries and economies in the Asia-Pacific region have introduced, or are in the process of introducing, policy and curriculum changes aimed at enhancing the cultivation of such “non-academic” skills and competencies in learners. To date, these important reforms in the Asia-Pacific region have not been widely documented, and hence, in 2013 members of the Asia-Pacific Education Research Institutes Network (ERI-Net), hosted by UNESCO Bangkok since 2009, agreed to make this their next topic of investigation. The research aims to document and consolidate reform initiatives for knowledge dissemination and policy consideration to the benefit of countries and economies in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. In phase I, the 2013 ERI-Net research examined how different countries and economies in the region define and apply “non-academic” skills (often termed “non-cognitive skills”) in their education policies, practices, and curriculum frameworks, and identified emerging trends and challenges. This report synthesizes ten case studies and includes important information and insights gained from the discussions held during the ERI-Net annual meeting 2013.The objectives of the report are: (i) to capture the movements in the realm of “non-academic” learning in ten education systems in the Asia-Pacific region; (ii) to identify possible policy recommendations for promoting and enhancing well-rounded and holistic learning; and, (iii) to suggest further stages of investigation.
2013 Réseau des instituts de recherche en éducation en Asie-Pacifique (ERI-Net) Год публикации: 2015 Организация-автор: UNESCO Bangkok La région Asie-Pacifique a été le fer de lance du développement mondial, social et économique depuis plusieurs décennies. Des millions de personnes ont été sorties de la pauvreté et de l'éducation de base (primaire et secondaire) est devenue quasi universelle dans de nombreux pays de la région. taux de scolarisation secondaire et le supérieur ont également augmenté de manière significative. Cependant, alors que ce sont des réalisations remarquables, la qualité de l'éducation demeure une préoccupation majeure parmi les économies émergentes et les pays industrialisés aussi bien. Alors que certains pays de la région d'exceller dans les évaluations internationales, telles que le Programme international pour le suivi des acquis des élèves (PISA), les Tendances de l'enquête internationale sur les mathématiques et les sciences (TEIMS) Le Programme international de recherche en lecture scolaire (PIRLS), et d'autres pays encore atteindre des scores faibles. Les résultats nationaux des pays qui n'ont pas participé aux évaluations internationales d'évaluation révèlent de grandes disparités entre les connaissances et les compétences chez les élèves d'un même pays. Dans certains cas, les résultats indiquent également un niveau de réalisation très faible des compétences de base, même après des années de scolarité.Dans le même temps, le débat entourant ce qui constitue effectivement l'éducation et un apprentissage de qualité dans le 21ème siècle est en cours. Il y a une préoccupation croissante que les systèmes éducatifs se concentrent trop sur l'accumulation de compétences académiques «cognitives» au détriment des compétences plus insaisissables et difficiles à mesurer "non académiques" et les compétences. L'accumulation de ces aptitudes et compétences, qui comprennent les compétences et les compétences en communication efficace avec les autres, la pensée novatrice, le respect de la diversité et de l'environnement, la résolution des conflits, le travail d'équipe, la résolution de problèmes, et ainsi de suite, est non seulement important pour les étudiants d'être adéquatement préparé pour le monde du travail, mais elle est aussi primordiale pour assurer les générations futures sont équipés pour mener une vie enrichissante, durables et responsables dans un monde1 en évolution rapide et interconnecté les effets de l'attention accordée à ces aptitudes et compétences en matière d'éducation peut se faire sentir dans un certain nombre de domaines et comprennent, par exemple: faible respect de la diversité (y compris l'égalité socio-économique, ethnique et le sexe), la négligence des questions environnementales, et un manque d'innovation et de l'entrepreneuriat social chez les étudiants.Pour contrer ces difficultés, de nombreux pays et économies de la région Asie-Pacifique ont mis en place ou sont en train d'introduire des changements de politiques et de programmes visant à améliorer la culture de ces aptitudes et compétences «non universitaires» chez les apprenants. À ce jour, ces réformes importantes dans la région Asie-Pacifique n'a pas été largement documentés, et donc, en 2013 les membres de l'Education Research Institutes Réseau Asie-Pacifique (ERI-Net), organisé par l'UNESCO à Bangkok depuis 2009, a aCECpté de faire cette leur sujet suivant l'enquête. La recherche vise à documenter et à consolider les initiatives de réforme pour la diffusion des connaissances et l'examen de la politique au profit des pays et des économies de la région Asie-Pacifique et au-delà. Dans la phase I, la recherche 2013 ERI-Net examiné comment les pays et les économies différentes dans la région de définir et d'appliquer les compétences «non universitaires» (souvent appelés «compétences non cognitives») dans leurs politiques d'éducation, des pratiques et des cadres du curriculum, et identifié les tendances et les défis nouveaux. Ce rapport synthétise dix études de cas et comprend des informations et des connaissances importantes acquises à partir des discussions tenues lors de la réunion annuelle ERI-Net 2013.Les objectifs du rapport sont les suivants: (i) de capturer les mouvements dans le domaine de la «non-académique" apprentissage dans dix systèmes d'éducation dans la région Asie-Pacifique; (Ii) de formuler des recommandations politiques possibles pour la promotion et l'amélioration de l'apprentissage bien équilibrée et holistique; et, (iii) à proposer d'autres stades de l'enquête.
Educating for global citizenship: an ETFO curriculum development inquiry initiative Год публикации: 2010 Автор: Alice Assor-Chandler | Mali Bickley | Jim Carleton | Antonino Giambrone | Janice Gregg | Jennifer Hunter | Laura Inglis | Leigh-Anne Ingram | Angela MacDonald | Miyuki (Erica) Moizumi | Carol Peterson | Carrie Schoemer | Nadya Weber | Tonia Wojciechowski Организация-автор: Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) Attention to educating for citizenship continues to expand and deepen worldwide. Many countries now include citizenship education as an important feature of their official curriculum, albeit in variant forms. Numerous research studies, policy reforms, and curriculum initiatives have been undertaken, as teachers, policy makers and researchers attempt to understand the intricate processes by which young people learn about democratic citizenship, and where and how citizenship education should be located and represented in school curricula.Educating for global citizenship has been a critical dimension of these discussions and investigations. Recent shifts in the speed and global reach of information and communication technologies, an increasingly interdependent global economy, challenges in human rights and social justice, and the impact of international tragedies and emergencies have, for example, created tensions and conditions that require more integrated, worldwide responses. Not surprisingly, understandings of global citizenship are being explored with increased intensity and, as might be expected, there has been a corresponding – and growing - interest among educators in various parts of the world to strengthen the global dimension of citizenship education in school curricula at all levels.In Canada, there has been increasing attention to what it means to educate for the global citizenship and provincial curriculum policy developments in recent years. A host of useful ideas in the form of new resource materials and websites to inform and guide teachers’ work have also emerged. The Canadian International Development Agency’s (CIDA) in the global classroom initiative, Classroom Connections’ Cultivating Peace in the 21st Century and Taking Action, Larsen’s ACT! Active Citizens Today: Global Citizenship for Local Schools, and UNICEF Canada’s Global Schoolhouse are a few examples of the many resources that have recently been developed. Despite this growing interest, there has been less attention devoted to examining practices of global citizenship education within Canadian classrooms, leaving a limited understanding of how it is applied in schools.A wide range of perspectives and practices has emerged, reflecting a considerable growth of interest in this dimension of education. In an effort to clarify the multiple dimensions of global citizenship education, below are two “working” frameworks that provide an overview of core learning goals and key teaching and learning practices associated with global citizenship education from the literature. They reveal both complexity and multidimensionality and provide a lens to analyse and reflect upon the breadth and depth of what it means to educate for global dimension of citizenship.
Global citizenship education and its implications for curriculum goals at the age of globalization Год публикации: 2010 Автор: Shahla Zahabioun | Alireza Yousefy | Mohammad H Yarmohammadian | Narges Keshtiaray Организация-автор: Canadian Center of Science and Education As the inevitable process of the 21st century, globalization has affected and altered all aspects of human life including education. Therefore, one of the main tasks of any education system is to identify the features and impacts of such process. Thus, the present study was conducted aiming to discuss and examine global citizenship education and its implications for curriculum goals.This study is firstly defining global citizenship education concept as well as its significance and necessity and then it is going to explain global citizenship education concept and its purposes and implications for curriculum goals. This is an analytical research. The results indicate that global citizen holds peculiar features and requires special education in global aspects. Accordingly, the citizenship education compatible with global standards requires an overview of curriculum goals as one of the most important components of education system
Global citizenship education and its implications for curriculum goals at the age of globalization Год публикации: 2010 Автор: Shahla Zahabioun | Alireza Yousefy | Mohammad H Yarmohammadian | Narges Keshtiaray Организация-автор: Canadian Center of Science and Education Comme le processus inévitable du 21e siècle, la mondialisation a affecté et changé tous les aspects de la vie humaine, y compris l'éducation. Par conséquent, l'une des principales tâches de tout système éducatif est d'identifier les caractéristiques et les impacts d'un tel processus. Ainsi, la présente étude a été menée en vue de discuter et d'examiner l'éducation à la citoyenneté mondiale et ses implications pour les objectifs du programme d'études.Cette étude est tout d'abord de définir la citoyenneté mondiale concept de l'éducation, ainsi que son importance et de la nécessité, et il va expliquer le concept d'éducation à la citoyenneté mondiale et de ses objectifs et implications pour les objectifs du programme d'études. Ceci est une recherche analytique. Les résultats indiquent que citoyen du monde détient des caractéristiques particulières et nécessite une éducation spéciale dans les aspects mondiaux. En conséquence, l'éducation à la citoyenneté compatibles avec les normes mondiales exige un aperçu des objectifs du curriculum comme l'un des éléments les plus importants du système d'éducation.
