The task of the international evaluation group of the Ministry of Education's LUMA programme was to evaluate the design, implementation and results of the programme from an international perspective, and to recommend future measures for improving mathematical and scientific know-how in Finland.
The recommendations for the future are summarised at the beginning of the report. They are explained and justified at appropriate points in the chapter texts.
In chapter one an overview of the LUMA programme and of the work of the evaluation group is given. In chapters 2 to 8 one describes the role in the LUMA programme of municipalities, schools, universities and polytechnics, and industry. In two of these chapters one also discusses examinations and assessment, and research and evaluation with respect to LUMA. In Chapter 8 one assesses the process of LUMA and discusses positive and negative aspects of the programme.
