EDUCATION AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Education and Economic Development, exploration of the relationship between the economic development of a country and its educational performance. The relationship between economic development and the level of education a country can afford to provide is both close and important.
In considering educational issues arising worldwide, international agencies often refer to “developed” as opposed to “developing”, including “least developed”, countries. These terms mainly relate to the stage of economic development reached by a country, measured in part by the gross national product per head of the country’s population. Other characteristics, such as the artistic, moral, or political condition of a country, fall outside the definitions of “developed” or “developing”.
Occasionally, in place of the term “developing” the phrase “Third World” is used. Again, because many of the developing countries with the most serious economic and educational problems are in the Southern hemisphere, notably in the African continent south of the Sahara Desert, the issue of economic development is seen in terms of geographical area: the comparatively prosperous north is contrasted with the substantially poorer Southern hemisphere
Adult education takes different forms in different places at different times, reflecting the different social functions given to adult learning, and the different groups with access to opportunities. In ancient Greece, Athenian society was organized to enable a small class of people to pursue learning as the central vocation of their adult lives. However, adult learning was not then seen to be universally useful. In Denmark, adult education was central to the regeneration of a poor agrarian economy, inspired in the 19th century by the Danish poet and educator N. F. S. Grundtvig, and built on the development of and support for active and participative democracy. That commitment to popular participation and social justice remains central to adult education in the Nordic countries. In Britain, “adult education” has often been taken to mean part-time studies that do not lead to certification; in the United States, it is seen as a generic, all-inclusive term. However, in more than half the world, it is synonymous with adult literacy, with programmes of reading and writing for people with no initial schooling.
Education, Business, field of training in business practices and in specific skills such as accounting, information processing, word processing/typewriting, bookkeeping, and shorthand. With the increased use of and access to computers in the workplace, the emphasis of business education has shifted somewhat, and training courses for computer operators and programmers have been established. In addition, students of management information systems learn about the most efficient means of providing data for making business decisions. Those who wish to study business at postgraduate level may, after some work experience, sit the Master of Business Administration (MBA).
