Teaching Learning

The internationalization of education has become a defining characteristic of the competitiveness of higher education entities, both externally and internally. It ensures the integration of national, intercultural and global levels of teaching, learning, collaborative research and service delivered by universities and higher education systems. The main actors promoting the idea of internationalization on the outer contour were American and British higher educational entities, which offered their programs and tools to the global educational community. The practice of assessing universities by international rankings, compiled on the basis of unified and western-oriented scientometric databases, contributed to the emergence of such definitions as “world-class universities”, “international quality standards”, etc. All this began to determine the level of financial support of higher education organizations and the accelerated spread of the system of paid educational services in their activities. At the same time, this process contributed to the gradual loss by national educational institutions of their national-historical, social and socio-cultural specifics, which were an integral part of the knowledge of the identity of societies, which was especially acute in non-English-speaking countries. Over time the development of all-consuming globalization in the educational sector, unified approaches of intercultural learning, socialization processes, and the introduction of European values and the basic foundations of Anglo- Saxon culture into ethnic groups of different countries of the world began to dominate. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the existing contradictions in the world community, revealed the fragility (not stable) of the development of the world economy. In this regard, for non-English-speaking and developing countries, ideologists of the internationalization of education propose to strengthen the missionary function of education, focusing on the formation of civil society and its compliance with Western values and visions. For developed economies, primarily the United States, the goal of forming human resources capable of fulfilling the tasks of reindustrializing the economy based on the restoration of engineering education in regional universities is considered, and internationalization is considered exclusively in the context of attracting migrants to rejuvenate the American society Thus, the internationalization of education in the post-pandemic period will undergo changes both as a process in the context of its regulation, based on the national interests of the countries of the world community, and as a factor that determines the competitiveness of the university, transforming the system of quantitative assessments that are acceptable for ensuring sustainable development of countries in the polycentric environment.

<p class="Abstract">For a long time French and English compete in international life.&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 1rem;">Globalization has led to the internationalization of education.

In France as in other countries one of the most&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">important languages is English.

It seems that France is&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">becoming more open to English. In addition to the growth of foreign&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">languages, it is necessary to consider the consequences of&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">internationalization for cultural preservation, the prestige of the&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">national language, linguistic and cultural diversity and the quality of the&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">university.

Globalization Of Education

ABSTRACTThrough education it is possible to build a fairer and democratic society, strengthening the overcoming of social inequalities. The higher education institutions can contemporary contribute to the internationalization of education proces-ses, observing the existing demand in other countries. The aim of this paper is to present the possibilities of a private insti-tution of higher education located in Maringa - Parana - Brazil, by offering graduate courses in the distance geographically dispersed  students  around  the  world  who  speak  the  Portuguese  language.  The  presented  model  enable  students  to  attend classes, participate in activities that take place throughout the course and come to Brazil only once, at the end of the whole process, to realize tests and present an article. From the perspective of the strategies aiming internationalization, the techno-logical expansion is considered one of the most important tools to allow the globalization of education. The use of the Inter-net  in  distance  learning,  allows  the  development  of  learning  communities  in  higher  education,  that  is,  the  formation  of networks. The theoretical foundation of this study is based on Green (2008), Levy (1996, 1999), Castells (2007), Sen (2000).RESUMOPor meio da educação é possível construir uma sociedade mais justa e democrática, fortalecendo a superação das desigualdades sociais. As Instituições de Ensino Superior podem contemporaneamente contribuir para os processos de internacionalização do ensino, observando-se a demanda existente em outros países. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar as possibilidades de uma instituição privada de ensino superior localizada em Maringá - Paraná - Brasil, ao oferecer cursos de pós-graduação na modalidade a distância a alunos dispersos geograficamente pelo mundo que falem a língua portuguesa. O modelo apresentado torna possível que os alunos assistam as aulas, participem das atividades que ocorrem ao longo do curso e se desloquem ao Brasil apenas uma vez ao final de todo o processo para realizar prova presencial e apresentar artigo como trabalho de conclusão de curso. Sob o prisma das estratégias que visam a internacionalização, a expansão tecnológica é considerada um dos mais importantes instrumentos para permitir a globalização da educação. O uso da Internet na modalidade à distancia, permite o desenvolvimento das comunidades de aprendizagem no ensino superior, ou seja, a formação de redes. A fundamentação teórica deste estudo está alicerçada em Green (2008), Levy (1996, 1999), Castells (2007), Sen (2000).

This chapter will explore the similarities and differences between late nineteenth-century debates on the British settler Empire and more recent visions of the Anglosphere. It suggests that the idea of the Anglosphere has deep roots in British political thought. In particular, it traces the debates over both imperial federation and Anglo-American union from the late nineteenth century onwards into the post-Brexit world. I examine three recurrent issues that have shaped arguments about the unity and potential of the ‘English-speaking peoples’: the ideal constitutional structure of the community; the economic model that it should adopt; and the role of the United States within it. I conclude by arguing that the legacy of settler colonialism, and an idealised vision of the ‘English-speaking peoples’, played a pivotal role in shaping Tory Euroscepticism from the late 1990s onwards, furnishing an influential group of politicians and public intellectuals, from Thatcher and Robert Conquest to Boris Johnson and Andrew Roberts, with an alternative non-European vision of Britain’s place in the world.

This chapter discusses the comparatists who reshaped the comparative literature in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s. It mentions Anna Balakian, who became a leading figure in both the American and International Comparative Literature Associations. It also describes Anna and her family's emigration in 1921 from Turkey to western Europe and eventually to the United States. The chapter analyzes how comparatists sought to change the world in the postwar years, a time of rapid expansion in higher education and optimism about America's role in fostering international cooperation and understanding. It also focuses on the need of politics of comparative studies to have a dual focus on institutional politics, a wider political scene, and a postcolonial perspective.

This article analyzes the People’s Republic of China’s elite-making higher education policies that began in the early 1990s, notably with the 211 Project and then 985 Project, which led to the formation of the C9 League, a group of nine leading institution’s dubbed China’s “Ivy League.” This elite grouping is compared with other Chinese universities in terms of global rankings from 2003 to 2015 to ascertain the separation by these top tiered institutions. Furthermore, the C9 League will be compared with other global elite coalitions in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom over the same period. University rankings, despite considerable criticism, have provided the Chinese leadership with key benchmarks for their vision of world-class higher education. This article finds that the C9 League has made some separation from other Chinese universities and has also caught up with its Western peers (notably passing Canada’s U15) in terms of international rankings.
