"Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. This comprehensive collection discusses topical issues essential to both scholarship and policy making in the realm of lifelong learning (LLL) policies and how far they succeed in supporting young people across their life courses, rather than one-sidedly fostering human capital for the economy. Examining specific yet diverse regional and local contexts across Europe, this book uses original research to evaluate differences in scope, approach, orientation, and objectives. It examines the embedding of LLL policies into the regional economy, the labour market, education and training systems and the individual life projects of young people, with a focus on those in situations of near social exclusion."

"Michel de Certeau foi um intelectual atento às práticas cotidianas que forjaram redes de ‘fazeressaberes’, relações de poder, transformações culturais, crises institucionais e tensões sociais conformando os ‘espaçostempos’ em que viveu. Transitou por caminhos já percorridos pelo pensamento e pelos pensadores, com eles conversando criticamente, abriu trilhas para explorar novas sensibilidades e atravessou fronteiras entre campos do conhecimento, lugares e épocas, produzindo diferença com sua trajetória acadêmica e política. Sua contribuição ao campo da Educação é inestimável e se substancializa em uma empreitada teórica para criar uma epistemologia das práticas cotidianas, as quais estão, segundo ele, no cerne da constituição dos diferentes domínios social, entre eles o educativo. O que Certeau nos propõe é pensar “outramente” a questão da diferença nos cotidianos. Para isso, precisamos nas Pesquisas nos/dos/com os cotidianos em Educação de posturas epistemológicas, teóricas e metodológicas que nos possibilitem, além de indicar os mecanismos de homogeneização e controle exercidos por um poder centralizador e determinista, enxergar os usos que os ‘praticantespensantes’ dos cotidianos fazem deles e os desvios que esses usos produzem. Torna-se relevante compreender os cotidianos como campos de luta, nos quais o poder está sempre sendo contestado e disputado. Precisamos, ainda, indicar a multiplicidade de modos de existência e de ‘conhecimentossignificações’ que com essas operações de usuários se engendram criando cultura e produzindo sentidos."

Denne boken handler om leseferdighetene til elever i 10-årsalderen. I Norge er elevene da på 4. og 5. klassetrinn, og det forventes at de i stadig større grad skal bruke lesing for å lære fag. Hvordan står det til med barnas leseferdigheter?Gjennom leseundersøkelsen PIRLS (Progress in International Reading Literacy Study) blir vi kjent med 10-åringenes lesing. I tillegg til å kartlegge hvor godt barna leser, gir PIRLS også viktig informasjon om forhold som påvirker utvikling av leseferdigheter. Hvilken betydning har alder ved skolestart, klassestørrelse, lærerens kompetanse og rektors holdninger? Hvilke forskjeller er det mellom lesekompetansen til gutter og jenter, og hvordan følger skolen opp dem som strever? Og hva skjer når elevene leser digitalt?Siden PIRLS har blitt gjennomført hvert femte år siden 2001, kan vi også studere utviklingen i leseferdigheter over tid. I denne boken presenteres resultatene fra PIRLS 2016. Oppmerksomheten er særlig rettet mot norske forhold. Fordi PIRLS gjennomføres i over 50 land, kan vi også gi et detaljert bilde av hvordan norske elever klarer seg sammenlignet med elever internasjonalt. Bokens redaktør er Egil Gabrielsen, prosjektleder for PIRLS 2016 i Norge. Øvrige bidragsytere er Ingeborg Margrete Berge, Njål Foldnes, Unni Fuglestad, Aslaug Fodstad Gourvennec, Lise Helgevold, Toril Frafjord Hoem, Johanne Hovig, Kjersti Lundetræ, Margunn Mossige, Katrin Schulz-Heidorf, Knut Schwippert, Oddny Judith Solheim, Olaug Strand, Hildegunn Støle og Åse Kari Hansen Wagner. Alle er tilknyttet Nasjonalt senter for leseopplæring og leseforskning ved Universitetet i Stavanger.

The volume presents the Acts of the SIPED International Conference "Permanent Education From the Early Ages of Life", in which the concept of education is explored as a process that continues throughout all the life and is built in several training environments. Il volume presenta gli Atti del Convegno internazionale SIPED 2015 "L'educazione permanente a partire dalle prime età della vita", nel quale si è esplorato il concetto di educazione come processo che continua durante l'intero corso della vita e si costruisce nei differenti ambienti di formazione. Migliore è la qualità dell'educazione a partire dalle prime scuole, maggiori saranno le possibilità personali di educazione nella vita intera. L'idea limite è quella di una formazione come condizione irrinunciabile per una partecipazione attiva dei cittadini alla vita sociale e politica.
