Description:
Highlights from Education at a Glance 2010 is a companion publication to the OECDs flagship compendium of education statistics, Education at a Glance. It provides easily accessible data on key topics in education today, including: education levels and student numbers, economic and social benefits of education, education spending, the school environment (hours of instruction, class size, etc.) and school choice and parent voice. Each indicator is presented on a two-page spread. The left-hand page explains the significance of the indicator, discusses the main findings, examines key trends and provides readers with a roadmap for finding out more in the OECD education databases and in other OECD education publications. The right-hand page contains clearly presented charts and tables, accompanied by dynamic hyperlinks (StatLinks) that direct readers to the corresponding data in Excel format. Highlights from Education at a Glance 2010 is an ideal introduction to the OECDs unrivalled collection of internationally comparable data on education and learning. Table of Content :Editorial IntroductionReaders GuideChaper A. The Output of Educational Institutions and the Impact of Learning -Indicator A1.  To what level have adults studied?-Indicator A2 How many students finish secondary education and access tertiary education?-Indicator A3 How many students finish tertiary education?-Indicator A4 How many students complete tertiary education?-Indicator A5 How many adults participate in education and learning?-Indicator A6 How does educational attainment affect participation in the labour market?-Indicator A7 What are the economic benefits of education? -Indicator A8 What are the incentives to invest in education?-Indicator A9 What are the social outcomes of education?-Indicator A10 What are the economic links with education?Chapter B.
