"Education at a Glance: OECD Indicators is the authoritative source for accurate information on the state of education around the world. It provides data on the output of educational institutions; the impact of learning across countries; the financial and human resources invested in education; access, participation and progression in education; and the learning environment and organisation of schools.

The 2015 edition introduces more detailed analysis of participation in early childhood and tertiary levels of education. The report also examines first generation tertiary-educated adults' educational and social mobility, labour market outcomes for recent graduates, and participation in employer-sponsored formal and/or non-formal education. Readiness to use information and communication technology for problem solving in teaching and learning is also examined. The publication provides indicators on the impact of skills on employment and earnings, gender differences in education and employment, and teacher and school leader appraisal systems. For the first time, this edition includes highlights of each indicator inside the book. The report covers all 34 OECD countries and a number of partner countries (Argentina, Brazil, China, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Latvia, Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia and South Africa, and for the first time, Costa Rica and Lithuania).

The Excel™ spreadsheets used to create the tables and charts in Education at a Glance are available via the StatLinks provided throughout the publication."

“In questo breve articolo presento alcune note sui primi risultati parziali di una ricerca sulla esperienza delle 150 ore in Italia negli anni ‘70, in particolare riguardo allo stato delle fonti e della documentazione. Questo studio si colloca all'interno di un più complessivo lavoro di indagine sul tema della professionalitá e della formazione al lavoro e nel lavoro, che ho cominciato da qualche anno, e che - da un punto di vista cronologico - si concentra sul periodo di grandi trasformazioni culturali, istituzionali, sociali e economiche che va dagli anni ‘60 agli anni ‘70."

"Les mesures d'assainissement budgétaire prises par les gouvernements grecs depuis 2010 ont aussi affecté les secteurs de la santé et l'éducation. Tandis que le secteur de la santé a fait l'objet d'injonctions de la troïka, celui de l'éducation a fait l'objet de mesures s'inscrivant dans des logiques globales d'économies budgétaires. Dans les deux cas, les mesures prises ont été très contestées par les syndicats, et elles ont mené à une augmentation des inégalités sociales en matière d'accès aux soins et à l'éducation."
