in education. Information Paper N. 39
March 2017 . UNESCO Institute for Statistics .
The Agenda for Sustainable Development and Education 2030 present an ambitious new policy vision
for the international education community. This vision places new demands on countries, especially
producers and users of education data. For Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4, “inclusive and
equitable quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for all,” the main challenge for
countries is to measure and monitor targets that are characterised by their broad scope, the thematic
focus on quality and equity, and the need to enhance national institutional and technical capacities.
The production and dissemination of high quality education statistics is essential for effective
planning, as well as for monitoring progress towards national and global education targets. For SDG 4,
it is necessary to rely on a combination of data from administrative records, household surveys and
learning assessments.

The overarching purpose of the present study, commissioned by UNESCO‘s Institute for Statistics, is to compile, analyze and describe commonalities and differences in the intended primary curriculum in reading and mathematics across a diverse set of developing countries.
The specific activities to be carried out include the following: Compile materials on the intended reading and mathematics curriculum in the final grades of primary education from a significant number of developing countries (around 25-30), and ensure adequate coverage by region and language (i.e., at least in English, Arabic, Spanish and French); Develop and validate a coding scheme to systematically record, retrieve and compare the intended reading and mathematics curriculum in different primary education systems; Discuss an interim set of products emerging from the aforementioned project activities, including the coding scheme, with the IWG through electronic means and IWG meetings; Complete all compilation activities and cross-national analyses of the intended reading and mathematics curriculum and submit a draft report for review by the IWG and UNESCO colleagues. Submit a final report with the study‘s main findings.

INFORMATIZATION LEVEL ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK AND EDUCATIONAL POLICY IMPLICATIONSijmpict
Seeing the informatization as a measure of the educational policy, we propose an informatization level
assessment framework and introduce a composite indicator – Education Informatization Index, calculated
as a weighted sum by applying the Rank-Order Centroid method for weight designation. Although it is made up of only two main categories (Educational Policy Implementation subindex and Educational Policy Creation subindex) and a total of six individual indicators, it captures well all the socio-political flows in the educational sphere in the Republic of Macedonia in the past five-year period. Namely, a slight decline of the value of the Education Informatization Index can be observed in 2013 in comparison to 2012, and in
2016 in comparison to 2015. Whereas only the value of the implementation subindex suffered in the first case, the value of the creation subindex suffered, as well, in the latter. Having in mind that policymakers can assess the improvement of a country over time, the methodology and the results can aid in making knowledgeable decisions or in establishing greater commitment to incorporating ICT into the education
system.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Proposal
The UNESCO Institute for Statistics is proposing a
three-pronged strategy aiming at:
Stream 1. Leveraging existing resources at the
national level to propose initial indicators for
monitoring learning outcomes
Stream 2. Fostering an international collaboration
for generating global snapshots using cross-national
learning assessments
Stream 3. Exploring the feasibility of advancing the
creation of universal learning scale against which
countries can monitor progress 4
