Nowhere is this challenge more pressing and relevant than in education, which is charged with the task of preparing future generations for the \"New Europe\". Everyone accepts that education should be for all, that it needs to be extended, and that \"education for life\" is a phrase with real significance, but how is education best provided? In February 1990 the Academia Europaea council decided to sponsor a study group on education in modern European society funded by the Swedish Riksbankens Jubileumsfond. The report, in the form of this book, deals with many problem areas in European education; for example school quality, examinations, the teaching of foreign languages, and science education. It also analyses the role of the school as an institution in an increasingly complex technological and meritocratic society, and spells out the role of basic education in forming a European identity and consciousness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Torsten Husen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0080413935\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780080413938\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pergamon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/18\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.94d","brand":"Torsten Husen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064786465023,"sku":"9780080413938","price":121.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0753f6bf-4c54-41b1-8c03-3f6bfb0ae150.jpg?v=1768671038","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/schooling-in-modern-european-society-torsten-husen-9780080413938","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
