Can Education Do It Alone?
Overview & Synopsis
Education can improve productivity only if there are employment opportunities for more productive workers. Without complementary inputs, education cannot fulfill its advocates' promises. Test scores have never shown a strong connection with earnings or productivity. Japanese firms that establish manufacturing plants in the United States produce more efficiently than U.S. plants. Education is only one factor influencing productivity. (MLH)
