Export restrictions: facts, fallacies and shovels

By Patrick Love. Following the twin discovery that governments were composed of politicians and that politicians mostly don’t look much beyond the next election, the OECD created the International Futures Programme (IFP) to encourage long-term thinking. A few years later, the UK government decided to set up a foresight unit, and in 2004 I went as IFP representative to a meeting in London where holders of stakes in different industries discussed what strategic thinking meant to them.

Le CAE propose un vigoureux toilettage du système éducatif et de formation

Emploi Parlons Net, le webzine de l'emploi & du travail (Retour à l'accueil)Par Jean-Pierre Gonguet. Constat : la productivité française, et tout particulièrement la productivité du travail, décline depuis les années 1970. Réponse possible : la mise en adéquation du système éducatif et de formation. Le CAE qui dépend du Premier Ministre, vient de livrer une note importante sur la question. L’affaiblissement des gains de productivité est important aussi en Allemagne, en Espagne et en Italie, mais aux États-Unis et en Suède, les gains de productivité sont en revanche constants sur la période. Reste à connaître les raisons. Le CAE en voit quatre : le recul de l’industrie manufacturière, un investissement en capital productif insuffisant, une recherche et développement trop faible et enfin, des taux d’emploi et des compétences insuffisants. Et sur ce dernier point, les véritables singularités françaises sont nombreuses. Voir l'article...

The future of higher education is blended and student-centred

http://esu-online.org/stylesheet/ESU/esu_words.pngThe European Students’ Union (ESU) welcomes a forward looking report presented today on new modes of learning and teaching. The report highlights that students are unique and so is the way they learn. Therefore, new ICT tools should cater for individual ways of learning, contributing to a real student-centred learning. Androulla Vassiliou, Commissioner for Education, Culture, Multilingualism and Youth, presented this report from the High Level Group on the Modernisation of Higher Education. It is the second report published by the High Level Group. The first one on Improving the quality of teaching and learning in Europe’s higher education institutions was published in June 2013.

Higher education in the 21st century

http://www.ireg-observatory.org/templates/sub_business2/images/ireg_top2013.pngIt is a common understanding that now and in the future the role of higher education will continue to increase. In a broad term, it is a consequence of a whole series of reasons which can be described as emergence of the “knowledge-based economies", globalization and of the new wave of digital communication.
