Description

Given the increasingly growing importance of demonstrative data in the process of educational policy formulation, many countries adopt education indicators in the evaluation of their policies. This paper provides an overview of the utilization of various education indicators for the purpose of understanding the educational situation in developing countries and through the analysis of the EFA Fast-Track Initiative, it discusses how such indicators can be applied in connection with educational development assistance to developing countries. The paper concludes that evaluation based on education indicators in connection with the international assistance to developing countries does not necessarily reflect clearly justifiable criteria.
