Answer Activity 1
Positive statements include those that are
verifiable such as ‘one physician for every
1,800 people’ or ‘1.4 per cent of GDP is spent
on public health’.
Normative statements are value judgements
and include, ‘The majority of the Indian
population is truly disenfranchised’, or ‘Public
healthcare is completely broken’
Answer of Exam
a) A positive statement can be proven to be true or false and
relies on verifiable evidence. The article states that India’s
current spending on education is 3.8 per cent of its Gross
Domestic Product (GDP). This is contrasted with other
countries such as Germany, which spends 5.9 per cent of its
GDP on education. The article also states that only 4.7 per
cent of the labour force has any formal training. Both these
statements are positive because they can be verified.
By contrast, it states that India could become a major supplier of
skilled and qualified workers. This may, or may not, turn out to
be true, the point is that however worthy an aim it may be, it is
not verifiable by rational analysis. It also states that some
teachers do not come up to standard but no evidence of this is
offered. Therefore, both of these statements can be said to be
normative ones.
•
(b) Spending on education can take the form of building more schools,
employing more teachers and providing better equipment. It is likely that this
will improve the standards of education and training in India. This will benefit
Indian firms who will gain a more efficient and productive workforce. The
products and services they produce will be more competitive, leading to higher
sales and profits. The economy will see an increase in output or GDP and tax
revenues, enabling the government to expand its spending programmes. The
workers themselves are likely to earn more money, leading to increased
expenditure and more demand for goods and services, once again stimulating
GDP.
However, increased spending on education must be funded and this may mean
spending in other areas has to be cut; this could have a detrimental effect
elsewhere, if for example, healthcare or housing are cut. Increased spending on
education does not guarantee it will be effective. It depends on how the money
is spent and by how much it is increased. It will also take time for the benefits
to appear

  • 41. Answer Activity 1 Positive statements include those that are verifiable such as ‘one physician for every 1,800 people’ or ‘1.4 per cent of GDP is spent on public health’. Normative statements are value judgements and include, ‘The majority of the Indian population is truly disenfranchised’, or ‘Public healthcare is completely broken’
  • 42. Answer of Exam a) A positive statement can be proven to be true or false and relies on verifiable evidence. The article states that India’s current spending on education is 3.8 per cent of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This is contrasted with other countries such as Germany, which spends 5.9 per cent of its GDP on education. The article also states that only 4.7 per cent of the labour force has any formal training. Both these statements are positive because they can be verified. By contrast, it states that India could become a major supplier of skilled and qualified workers. This may, or may not, turn out to be true, the point is that however worthy an aim it may be, it is not verifiable by rational analysis. It also states that some teachers do not come up to standard but no evidence of this is offered. Therefore, both of these statements can be said to be normative ones. •
  • 43. (b) Spending on education can take the form of building more schools, employing more teachers and providing better equipment. It is likely that this will improve the standards of education and training in India. This will benefit Indian firms who will gain a more efficient and productive workforce. The products and services they produce will be more competitive, leading to higher sales and profits. The economy will see an increase in output or GDP and tax revenues, enabling the government to expand its spending programmes. The workers themselves are likely to earn more money, leading to increased expenditure and more demand for goods and services, once again stimulating GDP. However, increased spending on education must be funded and this may mean spending in other areas has to be cut; this could have a detrimental effect elsewhere, if for example, healthcare or housing are cut. Increased spending on education does not guarantee it will be effective. It depends on how the money is spent and by how much it is increased. It will also take time for the benefits to appear
