substantial and diverse geographical areas, large economies
with even larger potential size.
• Current “success stories” of globalization: two economies that
have apparently benefited.
pp y
• Success defined by the high and sustained rates of growth of
aggregate and per capita national income; the absence of
major financial crises; and substantial reduction in income
poverty.

15. Rates of investment
• The investment rate in China (investment as a share of GDP)
has fluctuated between 35 and 44 per cent over the past 25
years, compared to 20 to 26 per cent in India.
• Aggregate ICORs (incremental capital‐output ratios) have
been around the same in both economies.
• Infrastructure investment from the early 1990s has averaged
19 per cent of GDP in China, compared to 2 per cent in India.
WWW.eLearning-SoftTech.com 15

16. Role of FDI in China
• Argued that China can afford to have such a high investment
rate because it has attracted so much foreign direct
investment (FDI)
• But FDI has accounted for only 3‐5 per cent of GDP in China
35
since 1990, and at its peak was 8 per cent. In the period after
2000, FDI was only 6 per cent of domestic investment
• Recent inflows of capital have not added to the domestic
investment rate at all, macro economically speaking, but have
led to the further accumulation of international reserves, now
increasing by more than $120 billion per year
year.

20. WHY eLearning
• Providing access to a range of resources and materials
which may not otherwise be available or accessible for
accessible,
example graphics, sound, animation, multimedia
• Giving control to students over when and where they
study & allowing students to study at their own pace
d ll i d d h i
• providing a student centred learning environment
which can be tailored to meet the learning needs of
g
individual students
• providing frequent and timely individual feedback, for
example through computer assisted assessment and
assessment,
positive reinforcement
