Your presence today and over the next few days will facilitate the comparison and the exchanges we all need if we want to make serious progress in education policy.
Earlier studies, such as TIMSS, already revealed shortcomings in our education system and demonstrated that we had lost ground in international comparison.
I therefore established the Education Forum at the start of my term of office bringing together all stakeholders in education policy -- the Federal Government and the Länder, the social partners, representatives of industry and the churches, apprentices and students -- at a round table.

The policy of "separate development" resulted in the privileging of English and Afrikaans as the official languages of the apartheid state and the marginalisation and under-development of African and other languages.

In July 2001, the Council submitted its advice to the Minister in a report entitled "Language Policy Framework for South African Higher Education".
The specific recommendation of the Council on Higher Education with respect to the development of other South African languages will be considered as part of this investigation.
The level of resourcing will be comparable to the investments that were made, in the past, to develop Afrikaans as a medium of instruction in higher education.

higher education, burdensome, HEIs, reviews, HEFCE.
Funding Council for England (HEFCE) is moving away from competitive bidding funding initiatives to less burdensome funding by conditional allocation.
However, no single Government Department has an overview of the burdens imposed on the sector.
It should, with the Minister responsible for higher education, agree an action plan to reduce burdens on HEIs.
The Government should reduce funding initiatives into a small number of key theme funding streams.
The last collaborative bid to HEIF (Higher Education Innovation Fund) which we compiled involved 6 HEIs and took around 2 days of a representative from each HEI plus about 4 days of my time.

Massey University enjoys an international reputation for teaching and research in education.
The departments are represented across the campuses at Palmerston North (Turitea and Hokowhitu), Auckland (Albany) and Wellington.

Currently, only one university offers the program, and the program will likely be phased out in a couple of years.
Thus, the state needs to consider development of other ways to license technology education teachers.
Board staff presented a status report to the Board on January 31 including proposals to (a) provide alternative licensure for candidates seeking initial endorsements; (b) provide streamlined routes for candidates who are already licensed teachers to attain an additional endorsement in technology-engineering education; and (c) provide for trade and industry teachers who have bachelor's degrees the opportunity to attain a regular license endorsed in technology-engineering education.

One--the correspondence course--involved students receiving written materials, usually by mail, being tested on their grasp of that material, also by mail, and eventually receiving confirmation of credit or degrees earned from the purveyor of the program.
Each publication reaffirms the Council's abiding commitment to quality in the development, delivery, and oversight of graduate education, as well as to the dissemination of policy perspectives and best practices for the graduate community.
As already noted, the 1989 CGS distance education statement acknowledged the advances and potential of new telecommunication systems.
As the terms "nonresidential," "offcampus," and "distance" in the titles of CGS publications convey, there are many ways to characterize graduate education that is delivered to students who are remote from the site of origin and thus "away" from the familiar oncampus classroom.
