Globalization in Education
In education, globalization
in education refers to the
increasing mobility of
students and teachers across
the world, and the need for
educators to be more
inclusive.
Early examples of educational globalization
include the spread of global religions, especially
Islam and Christianity, and colonialism, which
often disrupted and displaced indigenous forms of
schooling throughout much of the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries. Postcolonial globalizing
influences of education have taken on more subtle
shapes.
In globalization, it is not simply the ties of
economic exchange and political agreement that bind
nations and societies, but also the shared
consciousness of being part of a global system. That
consciousness is conveyed through ever larger
transnational movements of people and an array of
different media, but most systematically through
formal education. The inexorable transformation of
consciousness brought on by globalization alters the
content and contours of education, as schools take
on an increasingly important role in the process.
IMPACTS OF GLOBALIZATION IN EDUCATION
Global education interconnects methods of teaching from
worldwide systems to encourage the international development
of environmental sustainability, as well as contribution
toward fortifying global industries.These educational
initiatives prioritize global access to school from the
primary to the university levels, instigating learning
experiences that prepare students for multinational
leadership roles.
IMPACTS OF GLOBALIZATION IN EDUCATION
Information society and global economy requires a holistic
understanding of systems thinking, including the world
system and business eco-system. Globalization uses a
holistic approach to the problems. The interdisciplinary
research approaches are seen as critical to achieving a more
comprehensive understanding the complex reality currently
facing the world system.
