摘要

许多中低收入国家在教育机会和学生学习方面远远落后于高收入国家。政策制定者必须做出艰难的选择,以有限的资源进行哪些投资来改善教育。尽管已经对数百项教育干预措施进行了严格评估,但对评估结果进行比较仍具有挑战性。本文对有关有效教育计划的文献进行了最新、最全面的回顾,并以成本效益为新的重点。我们分析了 52 个国家 200 多项影响评估中干预措施的有效性和成本效益。我们采用统一的衡量标准--学习调整后的受教育年限(LAYS)--将受教育机会和教育质量结合起来,并将收益与绝对的跨国标准进行比较。结果表明,与一切照旧的方法相比,这些计划和政策的成本效益最多可提高一个数量级。一些最具成本效益的方法包括针对学生的学习水平而不是年级进行教学,以及结构化教学法。这些成果可以使决策者更有效地改善教育成果。

How to improve education outcomes most efficiently? A review of the evidence using a unified metric
Many low- and middle-income countries lag far behind high-income countries in educational access and student learning. Policymakers must make tough choices about which investments to make to improve education with limited resources. Although hundreds of education interventions have been rigorously evaluated, making comparisons between the results is challenging. This paper provides the most recent and comprehensive review of the literature on effective education programs, with a novel emphasis on cost-effectiveness. We analyze the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of interventions from over 200 impact evaluations across 52 countries. We use a unified measure — learning-adjusted years of schooling (LAYS) — that combines access and quality and compares gains to an absolute, cross-country standard. The results identify programs and policies that can be up to an order of magnitude more cost-effective than business-as-usual approaches. Examples of some of the most cost-effective approaches include targeting instruction to students’ learning level rather than grade as well as structured pedagogy approaches. These results can enable policymakers to improve education outcomes substantially more efficiently.
