教育開発計画・評価論

授業の目的

This course aims to increase students’understanding on the concept, practice and methodology of education policy planning andassessment in the area of educational development.
The course provides not only the theoretical overview of educational development planning and assessment, but also reviews practicalsteps to prepare for a national education strategic plan (NESP) and to assess the NESP implementation in a country. After reviewing thescope and dimension of education policies, the course further discusses the structure, formulation process and practical issues of NESPpreparation which varies by the country’s context and situation, as well as the concepts and calculation methods of key educationindicators. The course further introduces the methodologies of major assessment analysis used as a tool of policy/project assessment inboth practical and academic fields.

授業の工夫

講義の内容は、前半部分で教育開発の基本的概念や教育指標のデータ取得および計算方法などを学び、後半部分では実際に一国の教育開発計画や教育政策を決定するプロセスがどのようなものであるかを実感してもらうために疑似的な国家を想定して、チームごとに計画に必要な各コンポーネントを考えて発表することにしている。自分たちで政策を考えていくうえで途上国の行政官が直面する課題や政策論理の欠陥を経験してもらうことで内容を深く身に着けてもらうことを目指している。開発分野の実務でも同様の課題に直面することが普通であるので、これらの経験をもとに実務においても即実践で活用できるように工夫している。
