In spite of the focus on inclusive education in recent years, there is a relative dearth of studies which explore the complexities of the move towards greater inclusion. This article seeks to redress this situation by reporting some interim findings from a three-year study of schools' attempts to develop more inclusive practices, involving teams of researchers from three higher education institutions working in partnership with 25 schools, in three local education authorities. The development took place within a national policy environment which focused heavily on the issue of ‘standards' narrowly defined. This article reports the way that this context helped to form schools' responses to inclusion and the ambiguities in these responses. It argues, however, that the view of schools' actions as entirely determined by this external agenda is as erroneous as the image of them battling heroically against it in the name of inclusive values. Rather, to a greater or lesser extent, schools tried or were impelled to find spaces within the ‘standards agenda’ where different values and priorities could be realised. The article outlines some of the factors which made this process more or less likely to occur and offers an important new way of thinking about the development of inclusive education.

The time is right for universities to undertake the internal changes necessary to create a culture supportive of innovation and entrepreneurship. These efforts cannot however come at the expense of basic research. The tension between basic research and the public expectation that research will impact the world’s biggest problems is another issue at the heart of effort to rebuild the partnership between higher education and the public. Applied research can be more easily explained and therefore can serve as a means of gaining political and financial support for research efforts. To achieve the cultural change required entrepreneurship must be defined broadly as a way of thinking, entrepreneurs must be integrated into the faculty and into the curriculum, and clear measures of success must be established and tracked carefully. All of this must be accomplished without compromising the values at the heart of American higher education.

The demands and challenges posed by the global economy help explain the growing importance of the internationalisation of higher education in European, national and institutional policy arenas. The discourse of internationalisation is driven primarily by economic factors, and an emphasis on competition, standards and skills has shifted attention away from considering internationalisation in relation to the aims, values and the purpose of higher education. This paper considers the notion of translation as a way of thinking about internationalisation. Translation is normally understood in relatively simple terms – as the transfer of meaning from one language to another – and it is seen primarily as a technical matter, albeit one that sometimes raises considerable difficulties. It is argued that that there is something limited and mistaken about this way of thinking about translation. It is not only between languages that translation occurs but also within a language. The question of translation has to do with the nature of meaning, and meaning has been and must remain a central concern of higher education and the university.

The kind of Islamic sciences being taught in many higher education institutes in Indonesia is that which tends to make students isolated from their world. These Islamic sciences in themselves are kind of separation from the religious and worldly, Islamic and secular. This dichotomous character had inflicted upon the students mentality, who in turn become equally dichotomous in their attitude, and way of thinking. This paper tries to explore this, and attempts to seek the best way in which the dichotomous curriculum can be replaced with the integrative one. It argues that, like the nature of Islam, religious sciences cannot be separated from the non-religious ones. The one must work hand in hand with the other so that. The paper addresses specifically the dilemmas intrinsic within the text book used by many higher religious institutes in the country called “Reorientasi Pendidikan Islam: Menuju Pengembangan Kepribadian Insan Kamil”. The book—we argue—directs the students to adopt a single identity, disregarding therefore the multi and diverse racial, religious and even cultural background of the students. The paper is simply about a warning of the danger of the implication that the book can come up.

This writing is based on the research result data of the Radicalism Potencies in the Islamic Higher Education (Perguruan Tinggi Agama/PTA) students. This study uses the survey approaches which are done in 10 provinces with the target population consists of PTA students of Islam, Catholic, Christian, Hindu and Buddha, with the aims to know the understanding and social-politics of the religious attitudes, as well as the radicalism potencies in PTA. The result shows: 1) the tendency of the radical religious attitudes of the PTA Students, but it is still on the lower level; 2) the tendency of sectarian way of thinking especially in the relation of religious norm positivization on social-state life; 3) the tendency of religious-political orientation; 4) the tendency of the support toward the use of violent media to actualize the religious messages. Tulisan ini berbasis data hasil penelitian tentang Potensi Radikalisme di Kalangan mahasiswa pendidikan tinggi agama (PTA). Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan survei yang dilakukan di 10 provinsi dengan populasi target adalah mahasiswa PTA Islam, Katolik, Kristen, Hindu dan Buddha, dengan tujuan mengetahui pemahaman dan sikap social-politik keagamaan, serta potensi radikalisme di kalangan mahasiswa di PTA. Hasilnya menunjukkan: 1) adanya kecenderungan sikap keagamaan yang radikal mahasiswa PTA, tetapi masih taraf rendah; 2) adanya kecenderungan cara berpikir sektarian terutama berkaitan dengan positivisasi norma agama dalam kehidupan kenegaraan; 3) adanya kecenderungan orientasi politik keagamaan; dan 4) adanya kecenderungan dukungan terhadap penggunaan media kekerasan untuk mengaktualisasikan pesan-pesan agama.

The notion of pedagogy tends to be understood as the domain of teachers, this is a reductive way of thinking about pedagogy. Instead, in this paper I explore the heteroglossia of pedagogy through the Deleuzian-Guattarian notion of assemblage. Through this approach, pedagogy is an open debate which needs to involve students to co-create the learning environment in Higher Education (HE). Drawing on data collected with first year undergraduate students and through an action research methodological approach, I will argue that collaborative and progressive pedagogies in HE must go beyond the authority of the teacher and offer students in-class opportunities to negotiate the usual power relationships that characterise traditionalistic pedagogies. Whilst there is a stronger emphasis on engaging students differently in HE, it is important to also reflect on the dynamics that emerge from initiatives that seek to redress the pedagogical imbalances that the traditionalistic classroom perpetuates, such as enforcing a prescriptive curriculum where knowledge is transferable, inert and closely policed to satisfy performative regimes of assessment. I suggest that the notion of assemblages can help us understand the solidified and accepted classroom pedagogies as territories which are still normative in education, including HE, therefore, mapping out these territories open up possibilities for de-territorialisations.

This article criticizes the way of thinking of the Indonesian Statute of Higher Education known as “Undang-undang No. 12 Tahun 2012”, which puts the academic discipline of theology into the realm of religious science which must be fostered, coordinated, and supervised by the Ministry of Religion. This placement has been brought about injudiciously regardless of the reality on the ground where—for many years in Indonesia—the efforts of doing higher education on theology have been carried out by many Christian communities using their consideration freely: whether to have their theological schools registered by the Ministry of Religion or whether to have them registered by the Ministry of Education. Evaluating the philosophy of the Statute, this article argues about a misconception regarding the idea of “theology” in the Indonesian system of national education. By showing the misconception, this article suggests an alternative direction for public policy: that the academic discipline of theology should be explicitly recognized in Indonesia not only as a science of religious life registered by the Ministry of Religion but also as a science of humanities registered by the Ministry of Education. AbstrakArtikel ini menghadirkan kritik atas  cara berpikir UU No. 12 Tahun 2012 yang meletakkan ilmu teologi ke wilayah rumpun ilmu agama yang harus dibina, dikoordinasi, dan diawasi oleh Kementerian Agama. Tampaknya, peletakan ini dilakukan secara sembrono tanpa memerhatikan kenyataan lapangan yang me-nunjukkan bahwa selama bertahun-tahun usaha pengembangan ilmu teologi di Indonesia telah dilakukan oleh masyarakat Kristen dengan pilihan bebas: apa-kah hendak dikembangkan di bawah binaan Kementerian Agama ataukah di ba-wah binaan Kementerian Pendidikan. Dalam artikel ini, kritik digulirkan dengan memperlihatkan adanya miskonsepsi—pada cara berpikir undang-undang ter-sebut—atas ilmu teologi. Dengan memperlihatkan miskonsepsi itu, artikel ini bermaksud menunjuk suatu arah alternatif bagi kebijakan publik: supaya disi-plin ilmu teologi tidak dengan semena-mena diletakkan di wilayah rumpun ilmu agama yang dibina oleh Kementerian Agama namun juga diakui secara eksplisit di Indonesia sebagai wilayah rumpun ilmu humaniora yang dibina oleh Kemen-terian Pendidikan.

The PhD journey is different from all other activities in higher education. It ́s a period of construction of the research and is also a time for integration in the academy, in the field of research, and at the higher education system. During the enrolment in the PhD, the person's growth and the live experience change the perception that the doctorate has of the PhD and the research journey. The experiences as a doctoral student and as a researcher under construction, who is supervised/oriented/ guided by a supervisor, shape the way of thinking and action regarding the institution and the academy but also influence the way they see and felt the PhD journey and their beliefs. It is argued in this paper that an initial (de)formed perception of the real PhD journey and supervision, may influence the satisfaction of the students with it, and the disappointment impact the option to leave the academy or to continue. The current paper describes the change in the perception, motives, and of the curriculum quality and adequacy to doctoral personal journeys, during the doctorate. But it also reflects a PhD students’ personal journey and their perceptions concerning the PhD supervisors, host institutions, and the academy.
