- W2286716148 abstract "Education yields economic and social benefits for individuals and countries. The acknowledgement of these benefits, with economic globalization, has heightened interest in international comparisons on education. Current completion rates of upper secondary and tertiary education differ markedly among countries, as do changes in completion rates over the last three decades. Performances of 15-year-olds in reading, mathematics, science and problem-solving also vary substantially among countries. In all countries, there is a positive relationship between students’ social backgrounds and their educational performances, revealing an important level of inequity in education systems. The strength of this relationship varies across countries, however, with some high-quality systems also being high-equity. Evidently, quality and equity can be achieved together. Countries differ in the extent of variation in average performance between schools. In some countries there is very little difference. In others, there are substantial differences by design with students streamed by performance level into different kinds of schools to minimize variation within schools and maximize variation between schools. In others, differences between schools arise less deliberately. Where between-school variation is large, much of it can be explained in many countries in terms of differences in the students’ social backgrounds. Socially disadvantaged students suffer an additional disadvantage if they are predominantly in the company of other disadvantaged students. Socially advantaged students, on the other hand, do not gain much from restricted company with other advantaged students, making the case for heterogeneity strong. On almost all measures, the United States’ school system compares unfavorably with others, yet its economy remains the world leader that others seek to match. The lessons for others do not lie in United States’ schools but rather in its higher education system, particularly its graduate schools; its labor market’s emphasis on skills, not qualifications; its entrepreneurial tradition; and its capacity to attract the best from elsewhere." @default.
