THE ROLE OF COGNITIVE SKILLS ACCUMULATION ON EDUCATIONAL QUALITY AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

Öz:
This paper inquires ‘outcomes’ in education quality by focusing on issues related to cognitive skill develop- ment. Cognitive skills, which include literacy and numeracy, are defined as the “ability to understand complex ideas, adapt effectively to the environment, learn from experience, and reason” (The World Bank, 2017). UNE- SCO (2005, p.2) mentions the importance of cognitive development as “the major explicit objective of all edu- cation systems” and as one of the principles of defining quality in education. The first section of this paper will elaborate on the role of cognitive skills within the purpose and quality of education, followed by a section on teacher quality, and early childhood education since an amalgam of research states both factors having a sig - nificant statistical impact on cognitive skill formation (HW, 2015; Cunha& Heckman, 2017; Dahmann, 2015). The paper will conclude by touching issues regarding measurement and research gaps. There are several factors which enhance cognitive skill formation, and the aim of this research is not about assessing importance/rele- vance weights on specific factors; instead, it is an inquiry on the lack of cognitive skills within education quality.

BİLİMSEL YETENEK FORMASYONUNUN EĞİTİM KALİTESİ VE EKONOMİK BÜYÜMEDEKİ ROLÜ

Öz:
Bu makale bilişsel beceri gelişimi ile ilgili konulara odaklanarak eğitim kalitesindeki “çıktıları” araş- tırmaktadır. Okuryazarlık ve sayısal bilgiyi içeren bilişsel beceriler, “karmaşık fikirleri anlama, çevreye et- kili bir şekilde uyum sağlama, deneyimden ve akıldan öğrenme” şeklinde tanımlanmaktadır (The World Bank, 2017). UNESCO (2005, s.2) bilişsel gelişimin “tüm eğitim sistemlerinin temel açık hedefi” ve eğitimde kaliteyi tanımlamanın ilkelerinden biri olduğunu vurgulamaktadır. UNESCO (2005, s.2) bilişsel gelişimin “tüm eğitim sistemlerinin temel açık hedefi” ve eğitimde kaliteyi tanımlamanın ilkelerinden biri olduğunu vurgulamaktadır. Bu makalenin ilk bölümü, bilişsel becerilerin eğitimin amacı ve kalitesi içindeki rolü üzeri- nedir. Araştırmalar, bilişsel beceri formasyonu üzerinde bir istatistiksel etkiye sahip faktörleri belirttiğinden (HW, 2015; Cunha ve Heckman, 2017; Dahmann, 2015) sonraki bölümler öğrenci kalitesi ve erken eğitim üzerinde tartışacaktır. Rapor, ölçme ve araştırma boşlukları ile ilgili konulara dokunarak sonuçlandırılacak- tır. Bilişsel beceri oluşumunu geliştiren birkaç faktör vardır ve bu yazının amacı belirli faktörler üzerindeki önem ağırlıklarını değerlendirmek değildir; bunun yerine, eğitim kalitesi dahilinde bilişsel becerilerin eksik- liğine dair bir soruşturmadır.
