a. What correlation is there between the country’s educational attainment and its economic growth rate?

b. Its standard of living?

Answer 1

ANSWER:

Education is a primary concern of government in United States. Education plays an important role as a human capital investment that improves future legitimate work opportunities. This also discourages participation in crime. As there is a clear linkage between education, poverty reduction and sustainability, it often uses education as a short-hand for promoting economic growth rate. Productivity has grown higher in states with more growth in the educational attainment of the workforce. Thus there is a positive relation between the increase in the level of education and GDP growth rate of United States.

Education is highly relevant and has the potential to equip individuals with skills required to improve their livelihoods, thus holds the power to transform people’s lives. It intends to promote inclusive and sustainable human development and put efforts to reduce poverty in all its dimensions
