Wiseman. 330 $aThe worldwide shift towards a knowledge society and information based economy requires educational policy makers to re-evaluate their understanding of the knowledge and skills students need in order to achieve national development goals. This shift has influenced curriculum development, teacher preparation, and the role of formal schooling in creating lifelong learners and an educational culture, which reflects both national development interests and global norms. The Arabian Gulf countries, which largely comprise the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member countries, include Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Most of these Gulf countries have embarked on bold national experiments to pilot technology and teaching in their schools as a way to transition to knowledge societies. Their national interests and expectations have increasingly focused on the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in education and both the regional and global context in which Gulf societies, economies, and political systems operate. 410 0$aInternational perspectives on education and society ;$vv. 24. 606 $aEducation$xAdministration$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aEducational strategies & policy$2bicssc 606 $aOrganization & management of education$2bicssc 606 $aEducation and state$zPersian Gulf Region 606 $aTechnology$xStudy and teaching$xGovernment policy$zPersian Gulf Region 606 $aKnowledge economy$zPersian Gulf Region 606 $aEconomic development$xEffect of education on$zPersian Gulf Region 606 $aLabor supply$xEffect of education on$zPersian Gulf Region 615 7$aEducation$xAdministration$xGeneral. 615 7$aEducational strategies & policy. 615 7$aOrganization & management of education. 615 0$aEducation and state 615 0$aTechnology$xStudy and teaching$xGovernment policy 615 0$aKnowledge economy 615 0$aEconomic development$xEffect of education on 615 0$aLabor supply$xEffect of education on 676 $a338.9260953 701 $aAlshumrani$b Saleh$01507129 701 $aAlromi$b Naif H$01507130 701 $aWiseman$b Alexander W.$f1968-$0851927 801 0$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789109903321 996 $aEducation for a knowledge society in Arabian Gulf countries$93737613 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00913nam0 22002291i 450 001 UON00179709 005 20231205103126.818 010 $a03-332-8093-8 100 $a20030730d1979 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aGB 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aˆA ‰guide to post-keynesian economics$fedited by Alfred S.
