Description
Summary:This article may not bring the reader to a sense of closure, or a conclusion as to what will happen in Russian vocational education. It does offer insight into what Russian educators are facing on a daily basis as they try and find and pursue the best course of action as they attempt to create a curriculum that will address the major needs of Russian society now and in the immediate future. This article may make more impact on our readers if they knew that the average salary that a Russian university professor makes is equal to one U.S. dollar a day, or that most schools either have no computers or ones that can only run DOS programs, or that Internet access is still a dream of the future for most Russian students and professionals.
