Leading scholars examine the conflicting paradigms of affluence and destitution in the United States—as well as other free societies—and discuss the influence of education, race, and status on economic mobility. While recent catastrophic events in New Orleans and Haiti may have magnified issues of social inequity, leaders have debated over poverty and discrimination for decades. Are the poor disadvantaged by the institutions of society or by the choices they make? Through two insightful volumes, the author examines differing academic and political perspectives to help shed light on the causes of poverty and inequality; the role that gender, race, age, or sexual preference plays in determining opportunity; and the effectiveness of current social and economic policies in balancing the inequity among disparate groups. The Economics of Inequality, Poverty, and Discrimination in the 21st Century consists of 2 volumes containing 32 papers divided into 5 categories: measurement, inequality and mobility, institutions and choices, demographic groups and discrimination, and policy. The papers—written by economists, sociologists, philosophers and lawyers—deal with the extent of inequality in the United States and how it compares to other countries, and the newly emerging evidence on the relationship between inequality and mobility within a society.

A study was conducted involving 213 children who were either in junior kindergarten in 1978 and first grade in 1980 (69 children) or in senior kindergarten in 1978 and second grade in 1980 (144 children). Of these, 76 children had been identified by their kindergarten teachers as "thriving," 80 as "making average progress," and 57 as "not yet thriving." Sixty of the kindergarten children attended regular half-day junior or senior kindergarten, 82 attended alternate full-day junior or senior kindergarten, and 70 attended full-day senior kindergarten programs. Major concerns of the study were the effects of different types of kindergarten programs; differences between children perceived as "thriving,""average," or "non-thriving"; and the stability and predictability of those differences. In general, no differences were found among children as a function of the type of kindergarten program attended, as assessed in kindergarten or 2 years later. Large differences were found between "thrivers" and "non-thrivers" in kindergarten and second grade on a variety of language and academic skill measures, as well as on teacher-related social skills, temperamental characteristics, and self-confidence and self-direction. Kindergarten measures of social and emotional characteristics were more predictive of first and second grade academic skills than the reverse. A major conclusion was that individual differences in temperament--along with related but more environmentally affected differences in self-confidence, self-directive strategies, and social skills--should concern primary teachers in addition to basic skills.

Larry Prochner and Nina Howe reflect the variation within the field by bringing together a multidisciplinary group of experts to address key issues in the field: What programs are currently available and what are their origins? How are adults prepared for work in these programs? How do children within the programs spend their day? What policies guide the programs? How has the field reflected on itself through research? There are no simple answers, but the essays in this collection contribute to a creative reframing of the questions. The authors include psychologists, sociologists, historians, teacher educators, and social policy analysts.

This book serves as a reference for researchers and practitioners in academia and industry. Smart education, smart e-learning and smart pedagogy are emerging and rapidly growing areas that have a potential to transform existing teaching strategies, learning environments and educational activities and technology. They are focused at enabling instructors to develop innovative ways of achieving excellence in teaching in highly technological smart university and providing students with new opportunities to maximize their success using smart classrooms, smart systems and technology. This book contains the contributions presented at the 9th international KES conference on Smart Education and e-Learning (SEEL-2022) with the Smart Pedagogy as the main conference theme. It comprises of forty nine high-quality peer-reviewed papers that are grouped into several interconnected parts: Part 1—Smart Pedagogy, Part 2—Smart Education, Part 3—Smart e-Learning, Part 4—Smart University, Part 5—Smart Education: Systems and Technology, Part 6—Digital Humanities and Social Sciences for Smart University Development: the Innovative Methods, Models and Technologies, Part 7—Digital Transformation of Education and Economics in Smart University and Part 8—Smart Education for Children with Special Educational Needs. We believe this book will serve as a useful source of research data and valuable information for faculty, scholars, Ph.D. students, administrators and practitioners—those who are interested in smart education, smart e-learning and smart pedagogy.

Abstract: Studies have shown that learning outcomes are related to the amount of time students engage in learning tasks. However, visits to schools have revealed that students are often taught for only a fraction of the intended time, particularly in lower-income countries. Losses are due to informal school closures, teacher absenteeism, delays, early departures, and sub-optimal use of time in the classroom. A study was undertaken to develop an efficient methodology for measuring instructional time loss. Thus, instructional time use was measured in sampled schools in Tunisia, Morocco, Ghana, and the Brazilian state of Pernambuco. The percentage of time that students were engaged in learning vis-à-vis government expectations was approximately 39 percent in Ghana, 63 percent in Pernambuco, 71 percent in Morocco, and 78 percent in Tunisia. Instructional time use is a mediator variable that is challenging to measure, so it often escapes scrutiny. Research suggests that merely financing the ingredients of instruction is not enough to produce learning outcomes; students must also get sufficient time to process the information. The quantity-quality tradeoff that often accompanies large-scale enrollments may be partly due to instructional time restrictions. Time wastage also distorts budgetary outlays and teacher salary rates. To achieve the Millennium Development Goals students must get more of the time that governments, donors, and parents pay for.
