Private tutoring and academic achievement in Korea: An approach through PISA-2006
Álvaro Choi,Jorge Calero,Josep-Oriol Escardíbul 한국교육개발원 2012 KEDI Journal of Educational Policy Vol.9 No.2
Although not exclusive to the Republic of Korea’s educational system, the pervasiveness of private tutoring, and its consequences, serve to distinguish it from systems operated in other countries. This paper quantifies the impact of time spent on private tutoring on the performance of students in the three competence fields assessed in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). Instrumental variables are applied in a multilevel framework to address endogeneity. Our results indicate that the impact of time dedicated to private tutoring on academic performance depends on the particular competence: positive for mathematics, positive but decreasing for reading, and non-significant for science.
Sequential educational expansion, equality, and growth in the Republic of Korea
Álvaro Choi 한국교육개발원 2009 KEDI Journal of Educational Policy Vol.6 No.2
It is a well-known fact that the Republic of Korea has followed a rapid growth path since the 1960s. This successful growing experience was accompanied by the maintenance of a moderate economic inequality level and the development of its educational system. Sequential expansion of education was one of the factors which explain how Korea was able to make economic growth and equality compatible. This paper argues that the sequential expansion strategy can still be a useful means for achieving higher growth rates while maintaining low inequality levels. To test this hypothesis, the expansion of upper secondary education is simulated using a partial equilibrium microsimulation model.
