Human resources (henceforth abbreviated as "manpower") in the development and the functioning of science and technology in developing countries is the most crucial ingredient, and forms, most often, the bottleneck in evolution. This is so because it takes an extended period of time (decades) to establish an indigenous scientific and technological manpower of sufficient quality and quantity, and because it is a much more difficult and uncertain undertaking to do so than to asquire sufficient financial resources. For this reason problems related to the generation and utilization of scientific and technological manpower are at the very centre of attantion when it comes to managing science and technology in developing countries.

AbstractPlanning for science and technology was a global phenomenon in the mid-twentieth century. A few countries drew up comprehensive five-year plans adapting from the Soviet model: China and India were two new developing countries to do so. In this paper we examine the early efforts at national planning for science and technology as seen in the Chinese twelve-year science and technology plan (1956–1967) and the five-year (1974–1979) science and technology plan of India. These are two historically distinct moments globally and two separate attempts specifically. What tie them together are the goals both sought to accomplish: of science- and technology-led industrialization and development, many times in comparison and sometimes in competition with each other. We show that these two incomplete exercises show us the complex histories of institutions and processes that confirm state-led faith in and engagement with science and technology.

Changes in the educational system in Indonesia aim to meet the demands of theera, including the science and technology, economic, social, political advancements andsociety’s structure. Education functions as an accelerator for such advancements so that itrequires ideal programs. Subject matter teachers are expected to be able to understand andimplement such programs in order to attain the advancements. However, in practice, thereare a lot of constraints. Some constraints concern the human resources and this results ineducation of low quality. Such constraints can be overcome through a policy and strategyfocusing on decentralization and autonomy in education. It is necessary to improve teacherprofessionalism by eliminating obstacles through teacher trainings to get rid of personal,economic, structural, social, and cultural constraints. To do so, it needs the government’spolitical will, teacher commitment, and society involvement.Keywords: improvement, professionalism

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the impact of Knowledge Index consist of R&D, human resources and diffusion of ICT on economic growth in developing countries. To do so we have used a sample of 16 developing countries for which the necessary data were available for the period 2000- 2008. In this paper knowledge economy index (R&D, human resources and diffusion of ICT), Investment (Gross fixed capital formation), general government consumption and labor force considered as explanatory variables and GDP as a dependent variable. Our findings based on panel data econometrics method indicate that the impact of knowledge index on economic growth in the countries under consideration is positive and significance. Therefore, the expansion of knowledge in these countries is suggested.

Education in Indonesia should be able to play an important role in this global era. For that reason, education must be able to prepare Indonesian people to face this global era. One of the problems in education that should be solved is how to find a teaching model that can improve the quality of human resources. One of the best ways to do so is by introducing and developing science and technology in the early period of formal education since students are the human resources for future generation. Pendidikan diIndonesia harus dapat berperan serta positifdalam era globalisasi ini, kita tidak ingin hanya menjadi obyek dan bulan-bulanan bangsa lain.Oleh sebab itu kita harus mempersiapkan diri sedini mungkin untuk menyongsong era tersebut, salah satu alternatif adalah mempersiapkan sumber daya manusia melalui proses pendidikan. Masalah utama yang harus dijawab dalam adalah model pengajaran apa yang dapat meningkatkan kualitas sumber daya manusia dalam rangka menyongsong era globalisasi. Salah satu jalan yang terbaik adalah memperkenalkan dan mengembangkan IPTEK( Ilmu Pengetahuan dan Teknologi ) secara dini dalam pendidikan formal karena anak didik kita merupakansumber daya manusia dimasa yang akan datang.

: Education deals with enlightening people and developing human resources. The reasecher concluded that cultural background of students influences their learning attitude in the school. Therefore, the developing learning process of Natural Sciences insist student to elaborate principles of Natural Sciences without ignoring cultural valuesof local community. The policy of decentralization of Indonesian Government had authorized and legitimated local authorities to develop curriculum based on the local cultures. To do so, each local government through the officers of Education has to create a curiculum by involving some curriculum experts, instructures, natural sciences theachers, and the lectures of universities who adequately understand learning model of Natural Sciences.

The impacts of weather and climate extremes (floods, storms, drought, etc) have historically set back development and will continue to do so into the future, especially in developing countries. It is essential to understand how future climate change will be manifest as weather and climate extremes in order to implement policies of sustainable development. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that natural processes have caused the climate to change and it is unlikely that human influences will dominate the natural processes. Any suggestion that implementation of the Kyoto Protocol will avoid future infrastructure damage, environmental degradation and loss of life from weather and climate extremes is a grand delusion.
