This review of education policies in Turkey takes place at a critical point in the nation's history. An improving economy, greater governmental continuity and a more stable social environment, coupled with the extraordinary challenge of Turkey's candidacy for EU accession, provide an unprecedented opportunity for a new phase of education reform. Over the past decade, Turkey has pursued a striking education reform agenda focused on implementing eight-year basic and compulsory education and increasing the participation of girls at the primary education level. The nation must now complement the d

"Understanding Education and Economics explores the multiple ways in which the field of education and schooling has become closely aligned with economic imperatives and interests, and the impact of this on learning and teaching. In particular, the increasing influence of economic arguments, economic ideologies and government involvement in education have made apparent that there is a need to reflect and talk about economic influences and trends in education."

Policymakers are currently wrestling with fundamental but complex questions about the future of higher education, including how to hold colleges responsible for the billions of dollars in federal financial aid money they receive and how to encourage lower tuition to increase affordability for low- and middle-income families. Answering these questions requires a better understanding of how colleges operate and how we can measure their productivity and efficiency. In this report, the authors explain how thinking about college education as a service can begin to answer some of these questions. ; Center for American Progress

A growing trend in the comparative politics literature on patterns of minority incorporation emphasizes the emerging policy convergence in this area, conventional oppositions between national models notwithstanding. This convergence is further illustrated by drawing upon the cases of two countries often analyzed within an "exceptionalist" framework and generally viewed as polar opposites as far as the political legitimacy and legal validity of race-based classifications are concerned: the United States and France. The analysis of recent programs designed to increase the "diversity" of the student body in selective institutions of higher education demonstrates that indirect affirmative action is the instrument around which French and U.S. policies have tended to converge. This increasingly visible convergence obtains in part because of the current move toward color-blindness as a matter of law in the United States. Yet it is also a reflection of the fact that the ultimate purpose of affirmative action in liberal democracies requires a measure of indirection and/or implicitness.

Business today cannot be separated from issues that relate to sustainable development. For example, business is often accused Technology has altered the way people are conducting their business by utilizing information systems (IS). The velocity of development of IS has been perceived as a knout in conducting business in many sectors such as educational institutions, profit, and non-profit companies, government, and other areas. However, the development of IS has encouraged people to catch up with the pace of technology by digitalizing their work to take advantage of and compete with people in the world. Moreover, information system skills have become essential for recruiters, as companies use technology for their activities. Therefore, education's role becomes very vital to create a better education system to produce well-equipped people for companies. This paper presents such a review for highlighting the progress and aims to help improve the awareness on the best experiences of creating an active teaching and learning method by integrating the information technology knowledge. It is intended to provide a clear idea for those wishing to generate a road map for digitizing the most technology used in education. Note that, this literature review provides a concrete explanation about curriculum, eLearning, artificial intelligence (AI), and gamification which are implemented and used in education, and categorizes the discussion based on the methodology of literature, Technology Used, and Year. This literature review will provide information on research from 2009 to 2019 that has been conducted regarding digitalization in education and review gaps in the literature for future research.

Abstract This article argues that the production of monographs can produce new discourses in the curricula of science and environmental education for pre-service teacher education based on emancipatory approaches. We rely on critical discourse studies to understand the relationship between hegemony and emancipation in pre-service teacher education. Twelve monographs of environmental education published between 2015 and 2018 were analyzed. We found some monographs under hegemonic visions of environmental issues such as management, procedural time, mitigation of responsibility, and the search for efficiency. On the other hand, we found other monographs that referred to the struggle, resistance, denunciation, community, and inclusion of popular masses instigating insurgent practices. Likewise, hybrid discourses have constituted discourses in the monographs, which is typical of late modernity. Finally, we propose non-hegemonic ways to include environmental issues in pre-service teacher science education.

This essay addresses decolonization as a praxis involving "thinking and doing" (Mignolo, 2011) aimed at the critical education goals of representation, equity and social justice in the higher education context (Mbembe, 2016). It starts with an exposition of the notion (Amin, 1990; Ngugi, 1996), drawing principally on the work of Latin American theorist Walter Mignolo (2007, 2009, 2011) as well as African theorists (Amin, 1990; Mudimbe, 1988; Ngugi, 1996). It then explores the deployment of decolonization in contestations over environmental education (Tuck, McKenzie & McCoy, 2014) and central notions such as "science," "objectivity" and "the environment"; the positioning of Indigeneity, both in terms of representation within traditional (i.e. hegemonic, Eurocentric passing as universal) higher education (Windchief & Joseph, 2015) and the articulation of Indigenous alternative higher education institutions , including Indigenous thought, extramural work and the diversification of epistemology. Finally, taking as guide the crucial assertion that "decolonization is not a metaphor," (Tuck & Yang, 2012) and what we are distinguishing as "decolonization light" and "true decolonization," the essay turns to the prospects of decolonization of the university in a specific context, namely South Africa, as an example. We conclude that rather than a self-contained, self-sufficient discourse and praxis, decoloniality ought to be (re)conceptualized as necessarily opening up additional issues which need to be addressed for its fulfilment as concrete and fully viable representation, equity and social justice oriented education. ; peer-reviewed

Higher education is considered as an invaluable instrument for the sustainable development of human being and society through a dynamic process of creation, advancement, and dissemination of knowledge. In a fast developing country like India the role of higher education assume utmost importance. Universities have a pivotal role in realizing this goal. Our higher education system has had a glorious past in the form of world-class universities like Nalanda, Vikramsila, and Taxila, which attracted students and intellectuals from all over the world those days. However, in the present time we are lagging far behind in terms of qualitative education and research. This necessitates a serious concern and introspection to look into the nuances and flaws of our system that make our higher education system stand at where it is now. This paper, based on the analysis of various reports and Govt. documents, discusses some of the issues, which are at the core of the main concerns pertaining to higher education in India. Taking a snapshot of the historical trajectory of higher education system in India to the present time, this paper presents an overview of the higher education system in India and points out some most relevant concerns troubling the issue at the core.
