Jonsson.In many countries, concern about socio-economic inequalities in educational attainment has focused on inequalities in test scores and grades. The presumption has been that the best way to reduce inequalities in educational outcomes is to reduce inequalities in performance. But is this presumption correct? Determined to Succeed? is the first book to offer a comprehensive cross-national examination of the roles of performance and choice in generating inequalities in educational attainment. It combines in-depth studies by country specialists with chapters discussing more general empirical, methodological, and theoretical aspects of educational inequality. The aim is to investigate to what extent inequalities in educational attainment can be attributed to differences in academic performance between socio-economic groups, and to what extent they can be attributed to differences in the choices made by students from these groups. The contributors focus predominantly on inequalities related to parental class and parental education.Studies in Social InequalityEducational equalizationCross-cultural studiesEducational attainmentCross-cultural studiesAcademic achievementCross-cultural studiesElectronic books.Educational equalizationEducational attainmentAcademic achievement379.2/6Jackson Michelle Victoria1045860MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462802203321Determined to succeed2472429UNINA01813nam2 22003251i 450 UON0001947520231205102011.58720020107d1915 |0itac50 bagerDE||||b |||||ˆDie ‰Zendhandschriften der K.
