| Sumario: | This book is based on the proceedings of the Fourth Annual Education Conference of the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research (ECSSR), entitled 'The Future of Education in the UAE: Innovation & Knowledge Production' held on September 17-18, 2013. The aim of the Conference was to raise awareness of the growing importance of investment in human capital to build a knowledge-based society, values of citizenship, and the creation of skilled workforce to achieve sustainable development and the ability to compete globally. This volume supports the UAE's ongoing efforts to develop an effective and innovative education system that prepares its students and educational institutions to become the catalyst for innovative research, development and to allow the nation to progress in stature within the global economy. Presented here is a compilation of selected speakers' papers, which puts forward a clear and useful set of recommendations for future education policy, outlining the latest perspectives on educational reform, while experts from within the UAE aligned those ideas with the practical realities of the country's current education system. This provides an opportunity for a better understanding and greater awareness of the issues raised, and the development of appropriate solutions to meet the present and future challenges facing the development of the education system in the UAE. |
