Main Trends in Education. PERU [And] The Problem of Information at the National and International Level as a Consequence of the Improvement of Educational Systems.
Ministerio de Educacion, Lima (Peru).
These two documents describe developments and methods of information dissemination which have contributed to strengthening educational reform in Peru since 1972. Educational developments discussed include: (1) decentralization of school administration with increased community participation; (2) a policy calling for the implementation of educational technology; (3) experiments in the area of student guidance and welfare; (4) a new organizational structure for the schools closely related with the new integrated curriculum; (5) the creation of a civil service career in the field of education; (6) early childhood education; (7) expansion of the upper schools of professional education; and (8) a four year cycle of teacher retraining. Innovations in the design of school structures, particularly the rural ones, have been implemented. Dissemination of information in this widely changing field of education is effected nationally through the educational information services, through library and documentation centers, and through organizations at the provincial level. A description of services, types of users, and a listing of Peru's numerous educational journals are included. Methods and results of the "Diagnosis of Documentation Services" study are provided.
