Over 140,000 Grade 8 students, 62,000 teachers, and 5,300 school principals from 38 countries participated in this study, carried out by the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA). The association is an independent, international cooperative of national research agencies, which, for over 50 years, has conducted large-scale comparative studies of educational achievement and reported on key aspects of education systems and processes. ICCS was the third IEA study on civics and citizenship education. The first was conducted in 1971 (nine countries participating) and the second in 1999 (28 countries). Both played an important role not only in terms of initiating or adding to the debate on the education of future citizens but also in terms of triggering education reforms in this area in a number of countries. ICCS was able to help some countries evaluate their reforms 10 years on from the second study and to help several others clarify concepts and policy in preparation for reforms. The ICCS assessment addressed students’ civic knowledge and understanding, perceptions and attitudes, and engagement and behavior. It also collected information on various aspects of students’ home backgrounds. Separate regional modules (Asian, European, and Latin American) investigated issues of specific importance to civic and citizenship education in those regions. ICCS furthermore collected data from policymakers, school principals, and teachers on various civic and citizenship education-related aspects of the participating education systems and their schools and classrooms. ICCS has contributed substantially to our knowledge about civic and citizenship education in schools and about how diverse countries prepare their young people for citizenship. The study’s approach of collecting data at a number of levels and from different perspectives disclosed many issues important for policymakers and practitioners in this area of education. The study’s findings have been published in a series of reports presenting international and regional data on students’ knowledge, attitudes, and behavior, and on related family and school-level factors. This volume presents a broader context within which to review the findings on preparing future citizens. Elements of this context include each participating country’s historical background and political characteristics, the structure of its education system, and the place of civic and citizenship education in its curricula at the time when data were collected from students and their teachers. By complementing the assessment data, this current publication helps education stakeholders and the educational research community, as well as interested others, better understand the associations among civic and citizenship education-related policies, practices, and outcomes. International studies of the scale of ICCS would not be possible without the dedication, skill, cooperation, and support of a large number of individuals, institutions, and organizations from around the world. The study was organized by a consortium of three partner institutions: the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER), the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER) in the United Kingdom, and the Laboratorio di Pedagogia sperimentale (LPS) at the Roma Tre University in Italy. These institutions worked in close cooperation with the IEA Secretariat, the IEA Data Processing and Research Center (DPC), and the study’s national research coordinators. 5 I would like to express thanks, on behalf of IEA, to the study’s leaders—John Ainley, Julian Fraillon, and Wolfram Schulz from ACER, David Kerr from NFER, and Bruno Losito from LPS, as well as to all the researchers from the consortium institutions involved in the project. I also extend special thanks to the members of the Project Advisory Committee for the guidance they offered throughout the four years of the study, as well as to other experts who helped develop the instruments and reviewed the reports. The IEA Publication and Editorial Committee provided helpful suggestions for improvement of earlier versions of the report, and Katy Ellsworth and Paula Wagemaker edited the document. Much of the credit for the content of the encyclopedia must be reserved for the authors of the chapters from the participating ICCS countries as well as for Tim Friedman (ACER) and Alana Yu (IEA Secretariat) for preparing chapters for this volume. IEA studies rely on national teams headed by the national research coordinators in participating countries. They are the people who manage and execute the study at the national level. Their contribution is highly appreciated. It is therefore with deep regret that I note the passing away of two of our colleagues, Ms Graciela Sosa Salguerio from Paraguay and Professor Constantinos Papanastasiou from Cyprus. Both were national research coordinators and co-authors of their country’s encyclopedia chapter, and both died in 2012 before completion of this volume. This study would not be possible without the participation of many students, teachers, school administrators, and policymakers within the participating countries. The education world benefits from their commitment. Finally, I would like to thank the study’s funders. A project of this size is not possible without considerable financial support. Funding for ICCS was provided by the European Commission Directorate-General for Education and Culture in the form of a grant to the European countries participating in the project, and by the Inter-American Development Bank through SREDECC (Regional System for the Evaluation and Development of Citizenship Competencies). Funding also came from the ministries of education and many other organizations in all participating countries.

  • Literature Review Highlights Barriers to Physical Activity and Exercise in Any Context As

The review focuses on work that relates to the 2008/09 ‘Barriers to engagement’ research commissioned by the Cairngorms National Park Authority, Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park Authority and Scottish Natural Heritage. These partners commissioned the ‘Barriers’ research to help identify and understand better how to overcome barriers to engagement for young people, people with disabilities, people on low incomes and school groups. These target groups were identified by the partners following findings from visitor surveys, which showed a lack of participation from within these groups to National Parks, when compared with other visitor groups. It is intended that this review, combined with the main research report, will aid the partners in developing their practice in relation to engaging underrepresented groups within Scotland’s National Parks and National Nature Reserves.

  • The Educational Politics of Curriculum Policy in Vocational Education and Training in Australia
    The educational politics of curriculum policy in Vocational Education and Training in Australia George Loupis BSc(Arch),BArch(Hons),MBEnv(UNSW),GradDipEd(Tech)(SCAE) A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy UNSW AUSTRALIA School of Education Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences October 2018 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surn.:,me: loupiS First name: George Degree: PhD school: School of Education Faculty: Faculty of Arts and Social Science Title: The educational politics of curriculum policy in Vocational Education and Training in Australia Abstract 3S0 words maximum This research investigates the effects of the 1987 federal government's Vocational Education and Training (VET) policy on curriculum development on NSW TAFE by undertaking a critical policy analysis and utilising interview data. Drawing on Foucault's (1980, 1982) power/knowledge nexus, the study examines the complexities of social and structural relations to power and knowledge and how the state regulates the acquisition of knowledge. Foucault (1972a) saw curriculum as one form of social regulation that connects the citizen to the state. The VET policies embodied power relations by prescribing new practices that regulat~s the individual in a manner that is interrelated with the multiple demands of the new neoliberal economy and the expanding control of the state. VET became a mechanism for social and macroeconomic reform by being tied to youth employment, skills formation, human capital and Australia's global economic competitiveness. This study also draws on Popkewitz's (1987, 1991 , 1997) notion that the state exploits curriculum as a converting ordinance.
