Talk:Education Index

Page Outmoded
Hello everyone,

My first comment was going to be that the data on this page appears to be incorrect. After reviewing the 2016 HDR there seemed to be at best, many discrepancies between the document and what's recorded here, at worst a complete misconstrual of what the Human Development Index represents and the fact that it is distinct from the Education Index.

However this is irrelevant seeing as we now have a 2020 HDR. We have 2019 data to use.

I'm not particularly familiar with the subject, but I can't see an formulaic explanation for how the Education Index (now only presented as the Inequality-adjusted education index) is derived, so I propose we nix that section (as well as the 2009 and 2015 data, given they seem to be inaccurate)

If no one has any objections I'll proceed on this. Ike Saunders (talk) 07:35, 14 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Done. If anyone can help make the new table sticky on the Country column without the sortable table messing up, I'd appreciate it. Ike Saunders (talk) 01:43, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

2021 data now exists. This is accessable via. --BanzaiSi (talk) 17:52, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Correcting Education Index formula
It seems that the formula became outdated as of 2010 and even the source they used disagrees with the formula. The source I am using is. . -Edit: The reason I think it changed in 2010 is because, the old source for the Education Index says "The recent change in HDI occurred in [the] 2010 report...". --BanzaiSi (talk) 17:45, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
