q2 i? According to the World Education Report 2000, progress toward the right to education has concerned access, while the qualitative vision of Article 26 concerning purposes and contents of education remains unrealized. → Jan Visser 2006

q2 · i? · theoretical · r2

The chapter quotes the World Education Report 2000 (UNESCO, 2000, p. 74), which states that progress toward implementing the right to education has been in terms of access, while the qualitative vision embodied in Article 26 was not just quantitative. The author treats this as evidence that distance education's achievements reflect little concern with purposes beyond increasing numbers of beneficiaries.

"there has been a great deal of progress worldwide over the past half century towards implementation of the right to education in terms of access to education, it nevertheless remains that the vision that came to be embodied in Article 26"
