Enhancing Efficiency and Effectiveness in Education

Descrizione del progetto

Imparare a conoscere le sfide educative per trovare soluzioni

Nonostante gli ingenti investimenti, la qualità dell’istruzione in alcuni Paesi dell’UE è stabile o è peggiorata, e le popolazioni emarginate ne sono interessate in modo sproporzionato. Questo fenomeno mette a rischio la crescita economica e il progresso sociale, sottolineando la necessità di politiche educative efficienti e d’impatto. Alla luce di queste premesse, il progetto EFFEct, finanziato dall’UE, riunisce scienziati dell’istruzione, psicologi ed economisti per svelare le complessità dell’efficacia e dell’efficienza educativa. Utilizzando prove (quasi) sperimentali, questo lavoro multidisciplinare si propone di analizzare e migliorare vari aspetti dell’istruzione, dal modo in cui si affrontano le disuguaglianze alla gestione delle sfide legate all’era digitale e delle conseguenze della pandemia di COVID-19. Gli obiettivi del progetto spaziano dai programmi mirati per gli studenti svantaggiati all’analisi dell’efficienza del sistema post-COVID-19: in ultima analisi, EFFEct intende fornire raccomandazioni politiche basate su dati concreti.

Obiettivo

High-quality education is a key driver of economic growth and social progress. Despite large investments in education over the past few decades, the quality of education in some EU countries has stagnated or even deteriorated. Marginalized populations are particularly vulnerable to the negative consequences arising from inadequate educational policies. Understanding the efficiency and (cost-)effectiveness of investment in quality education is crucial for allocating resources to where they could have the largest economic and social impacts. The EFFEct research project has been established as an impact-driven initiative that aims to provide evidence-based policy recommendations to improve the quality of education. By investigating the effectiveness and efficiency of education systems and specific policies in EU countries by using (quasi-)experimental evidence, EFFEct advances knowledge in several critical areas, including diversity, equity and inclusion; teachers, trainers and digital transition; instruction and (adult-)learning. EFFEct has four interrelated objectives. Objective 1 offers novel insights on diversity, equity and inclusion by investigating targeted programs for disadvantaged students as well as religious and elite schools. Objective 2 investigates how teacher shortages can be mitigated and examines the role of digital environments. Objective 3 evaluates policies related to instruction, admission standards, and upskilling and reskilling of adults. Finally, objective 4 analyzes how the efficiency of EU educational systems has changed since the COVID-19 pandemic and establishes the main policy levers and qualitative insights that may explain efficiency changes. EFFEct brings together a multidisciplinary research team of economists, sociologists, (neuro-)psychologists, teacher trainers, education scientists, mathematicians, and sustainability and operational research experts from four European research universities, a research institute and a NGO.
