This paper aims to raise awareness of the importance of education in economic growth and not just education in general, but mainly of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education. Such signals are always useful, in order to align ourselves with other countries that have already acquired experience in implementing STEM education and can measure positive effects for the economy. The present research proposes to approach STEM education through the perspective of the most effective strategies applied so far in various regions of the world and that can be adapted to the Romanian reality. This is also useful for the steps needed to implement the recently adopted project "Educated Romania" (2021), which essentially aims to support education based on STEM competencies. The micro-research in the second part of the paper is a quantitative one that verifies whether there is, at the population level of parents in general, an awareness of STEM education competencies. It was investigated in what extent people are familiar with STEM education, if they can describe it and how interested would be to encourage their children to learn science, technical subjects, engineering and math skills. Moreover, the respondents' perception regarding the impact that such an approach would have on the economic development of a country was questioned.

Cartea Lectura si formarea competentei lectorale pune in miscare o necesara energie efectiv-mentala, dinamizeaza relatia vertebrala intre cautari si raspunsuri la interogatii precum: De ce si cat de reala este afirmatia potrivit careia lectura este pe un trend descendent astazi? Cum formam si demonstram competenta lectorala necesara atingerii standardelor educatiei moderne? Motivatiile justificative sunt legate de prezenta unor factori precum: timpul si timpurile de azi, optiunea pentru beneficiile noilor medii tehnologice de comunicare rapida de informatii, de reducere a eforturilor si conditiilor de documentare. Scoala, educatia performanta si competitia cer elevilor lecturi profunde, competenta lectorala, asistenta calificata si studiu creativ, practicarea lecturii ca strategie a iesirii din indiferenta fata de cultura si succesul meritat.

This research aims to identify the quality of school results for pupils in the primary schools in Jordan, through the school administration, teacher effectiveness, school environment, teaching strategies and evaluation. The main theme of the search is linked to school assessment results, to identify weaknesses that must be corrected, and the strengths to keep them, and the reasons that led to the failure to achieve certain goals by the pupils. To achieve the objectives of the study we applied two tools: questionnaire and interview, to study samples that were from the primary schools principals in Jordan. The study found that all areas of the study achieved a higher score.
