It examines the way in which the institutional embeddedness and the social and ethnic composition of students affect educational performance, skill formation, and behavioral outcomes. It discusses the manner in which educational institutions accomplish social integration. It poses the question of whether they can reduce social inequality, - or whether they even facilitate the transformation of heterogeneity into social inequality. Divided into five parts, the volume offers new insights into the many factors, processes and policies that affect performance levels and social inequality in educational institutions. It presents current empirical work on social processes in educational institutions and their outcomes. While its main focus is on the primary and secondary level of education and on occupational training, the book also presents analyses of institutional effects on transitions from vocational training into tertiary educational institutions in an interdisciplinary and internationally comparative approach. 000761546 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 24, 2016). 000761546 650_0 $$aAffective education. 000761546 7001_ $$aKhine, Myint Swe,$$eeditor. 000761546 830_0 $$aContemporary approaches to research in learning innovations ;$$v9. 000761546 852__ $$bebk 000761546 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-94-6300-591-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000761546 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:761546$$pGLOBAL_SET 000761546 980__ $$aEBOOK 000761546 980__ $$aBIB 000761546 982__ $$aEbook 000761546 983__ $$aOnline 000761546 994__ $$a92$$bISE
