education skill training and lifelong learning in the era of Technological Revolution a review
Asian-pacific Economic Literature, 2020Co-Authors: Jin Young Kim, Cynyoung ParkAbstract:Rapid Technological development makes skills depreciate faster than in the past while new technologies generate gaps in workers' skills and call for the acquisition of appropriate skills and lifelong learning. Proper skill mixes for future jobs include strong cognitive skills, basic information and communication technology, and analytical skills, as well as a range of non‐cognitive skills such as creativity, problem‐solving, critical thinking, and communication. Retraining and reskilling workers are also crucial, particularly as life expectancy increases. All these changes lead to a major rethinking of education and skill training throughout a person's life. This paper reviews the recent studies on human capital and skill formation in the era of rapid Technological progress. Findings from these studies, particularly in labour economics, can shed light on new directions for lifelong education policies, for example (1) parental investment in pre‐school learning is reflected in highly positive adult outcomes; (2) as far as education inputs are concerned, teacher quality is far more important than additional school resources; and (3) government workforce training programs are largely ineffective as compared to private training, which contribute significantly to worker productivity.

the waves of the Technological innovations of the modern age and the present crisis as the end of the wave of the informational Technological Revolution
Social Science Research Network, 2009Co-Authors: Daniel SmihulaAbstract:The article is about new views on the theory of “long waves” and specially from the point of view of Technological progress importance of which is stressed. It developed a new conception of waves of Technological innovations in a modern society (from 1600 AD). The last 5th wave (based on a progress in informatics and telecommunications) is just coming to an end. Today economic crisis (2008) must be seen also as the crisis of the end of the cycle of innovations. It could be overcome by a new Technological Revolution (post-informational Technological Revolution) which could start about 2015.
