This volume analyses some of the major and current trends and challenges in the "new economy" from the point of view of technical innovation and competence building. It brings together the leading European expertise on different topics in this field.

The individual chapters report on the most significant policies adopted and asses them in the light of the European experience in comparison with the United States and Japan.

Teachers' Work in a Globalizing Economy

Teachers' Work in a Globalizing Economy: Extended critical case studies provide a tangible working expression of the labour process of teaching, showing how teachers are simultaneously experiencing significant changes to their work, as well as responding in ways that actively shape these processes.

The Book of Learning and Forgetting

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, Frank, PUBLISHER: Teachers College Press, The author eloquently contrasts a false and fabricated "official theory" that learning is work (used to justify the external control of teachers and students through excessive regulation and massive testing) with a correct but officially suppressed "classic view" that learning is a social process that can occur naturally and continually through collaborative activities. This book will be crucial reading in a time when national authorities continue to blame teachers and students for failures in education. It will help educators and parents to combat sterile attitudes toward teaching and prevent current practices from doing further harm.
