Seven Steps to EnGendering Evaluations of Public Health ProgramsMEASURE Evaluation
Because international development increasingly focuses on gender, evaluators need a better understanding of how to measure and incorporate gender—including its economic, social, and health dimensions—in their evaluations. This interactive training, consisting of this presentation and a tool, will help participants learn to better evaluate programs with gender components.

Skills Outlook 2015: Youth, Skills and EmployabilityEduSkills OECD
(Andreas Schleicher, Director for the OECD Directorate for Education and Skills) Young people around the world are struggling to enter the labour market. In some OECD countries, one in four 16-29 year-olds is neither employed nor in education or training. The OECD Skills Outlook 2015 shows how improving the employability of youth requires a comprehensive approach. While education, social, and labour market policies have key roles to play, co-ordination between public policies and the private sector is also crucial. The publication, which builds on the results of the 2012 Survey of Adult Skills presented in the first edition of the Skills Outlook, also presents examples of successful policies in selected countries.

Research Paradigms.html
The term ‘research’ is commonly understood to denote a systematic process of discovering more about a topic, using methods that are transparent and publicly defensible. Within this broad definition lie different strands of activity. A key distinction in education and development is between scholarly research and research conducted for consultancy or monitoring and evaluation purposes. Monitoring and evaluation (sometimes referred to as ‘M & E’) is chiefly used in relation to specific projects and usually focuses on the effectiveness of the project in relation to specified (and often narrow) goals. It is unlikely to be asking deeper questions or engaging with the debates in academic literature that scholarly research tends to be concerned with.

TEGINT Project
The TEGINT project (Transforming Education for Girls in Nigeria and Tanzania) sought to address gender inequalities in schools and communities through three interventions: the establishment of ‘girls’ clubs’ in schools, of school committees and of participatory, gender-sensitive teaching methodologies. The monitoring and evaluation process, run at regular points during the programme, sought to discover the impact on particular outcomes such as girls’ enrolment and progression. Data collected annually for M & E included gender-disaggregated figures for enrolment by class, exam entry, exam passes, drop-outs, attendance, numbers of teachers and numbers on the school management committees. However, broader research conducted at the start and the end of the project, in conjunction with university partners, attempted to address more complex issues such as the relationships between girls’ club membership, community attitudes and girls’ empowerment (ActionAid 2012).
Epistemological and political positions; decolonizing methodologies; different research traditions
As a researcher, it is always important to consider which assumptions and political positions underpin one’s work. No research (and no researcher) is completely objective and without a position, no matter how unbiased they believe themselves to be. These are particularly important considerations when working on education and development. If the researcher is from a different educational background to that which is being researched, it may lead to some comparative bias, particularly if the context being researched is a developing country. Researchers may become overwhelmed with the deficiencies of the research context and be blind to positive aspects that may have been undervalued or lacking in their own education. It is also important to note that some methodological approaches explicitly and intentionally contain political positions and aims (e.g. feminist research).
A number of theoretical and methodological developments since the 1970s have aimed to reveal and break down hidden assumptions in research. Postcolonial perspectives seek to question the extent to which certain educationa ...

Educating for Entrepreneurial Mindsets (MESHGuide): A critical consideration ...Mike Blamires
UNESCO Education for All: Developing a translational research and knowledge mobilisation strategy for global and local perspectives through MESHGuides (Mapping Education Specialist knowHow).
This national study forms part of the series, 'Building Effective Research', edited by Andrew Murray and published by the Learning and Skills Research Centre (LSRC). This was commissioned as part of its strategy to enhance the impact of research within the post-16 (or learning and skills) sector, and was conducted by the LSRC plus a consortium of three universities: Leeds Metropolitan, St Andrew’s and Queen Mary’s, London. It comprises a review of relevant literature and five case studies of practice, as well as outcomes of workshops, where the findings were tested with people working in the sector.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
