Egypt ISCED Mapping 1997

A very interesting maping of the Egyptian Educaional System compared to the international Standard Classification of Education (ISCED).

What is the role of the UIS?

UNESCO developed the International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED) to facilitate comparisons of education statistics and indicators across countries on the basis of uniform and internationally agreed definitions. In 2011, a revision to ISCED was formally adopted by UNESCO Member States. The product of extensive international and regional consultations among education and statistical experts, ISCED 2011 takes into account significant changes in education systems worldwide since the last ISCED revision in 1997.- See more at: http://www.uis.unesco.org/Education/Pages/international-standard-classification-of-education.aspx#sthash.KmgImwyN.dpuf

Taha Hussein's Book : The Future of Culture in Egypt, a free pdf download

Hendawi Foundation is putting online many important Arabic books in Pdf, Kindle, and ePUB format. One of these books is Taha Hussein's " The Future of  Culture in Egypt". The book in my view is better to be called "The Future of Education in Egypt", since he propose to integrate Greek and Latin not only to the secondary schools, but also in many departments in the Egyptian Universities.  His call is up-till now remains completely unfulfilled. The Egyptian universities are still in the process of the implementation of his Nr. 1 idea i.e. Greek and Latin departments. No secondary school whatsoever in Egypt teach Greek or Latin, neither there are full integration of these languages in the departments of the universities in which they are mostly needed e.g. in The faculties of Law !

A list of Authors and Titles of "Classical Papers" Academic Journal

Below is the link to a list of Authors and their titles published in Classical Papers journal of Cairo University.  The list covers the period between 1991-2008. Among the papers, written mainly in Arabic but includes  contributions in English and French, many -in my opinion- interdisciplinary treatments of classical receptions not only in  Arabic,  but also in English , French , and even German Literature.
