Ce livre est le premier qui propose un bilan critique de l'internationalisation de l'enseignement supérieur en abordant à la fois les aspects politiques, économiques, institutionnels et pédagogiques. L'enseignement supérieur s'est massivement internationalisé ces dernières années. Dans tous les pays les plus développés économiquement, les universités cherchent à capter un public d'étudiants étrangers, à envoyer elles-mêmes leurs étudiants à l'étranger et à recruter des enseignants-chercheurs étrangers. Les finalités assignées sont multiples, parmi lesquelles mieux préparer les étudiants à travailler dans un monde multiculturel et globalisé, obtenir une meilleure visibilité à l'international en accédant au statut « d'université de classe mondiale », se manifestant entre autres par un classement en bonne place dans les palmarès les plus réputés (Shanghai, Times Higher Education). L'objectif de ce livre est de proposer une analyse globale du processus d'internationalisation de l'enseignement supérieur en examinant les aspects politique, économique, institutionnel et pédagogique et en clarifiant plusieurs concepts utilisés dans ce domaine tels que globalisation, éducation transnationale, citoyenneté globale, compétence interculturelle, mobilité internationale et internationalisation chez soi. L'ouvrage développe en outre différents scénarios d'évolution de l'internationalisation de l'enseignement supérieur et avance des propositions pour qu'elle soit plus équitable et plus sociale.

What impact does globalization have on the production of educational knowledge, and on the way scholars envisage education systems and education in general? Western education systems are being transformed, and their role redefined, in light of the processes of globalization: education targets are being reshaped in response to global economic needs; education systems are rated according to international rankings and education itself has been packaged into a commodity that can be commercialized worldwide. In addition, globalization prompts more intimate contact with different types of societies, cultures and knowledge that defy our “universal” foundations and research tools. Has educational knowledge developed in a way that enables us to disentangle the new education configurations? In order to respond to this question this edited volume addresses four major challenges: to understand the denationalization of education and the need to re-conceptualize this transformation. to uncover the agents and the tools of educational globalization, such as the knowledge producers, international organizations and role of statistics. to explore the implications of the emerging international educational institutions and international curricula. to understand non-western education and integrating it into western educational knowledge. These challenges are located at the core of the production of educational knowledge and are treated from a variety of viewpoints: sociological quantitative and qualitative scholarship, ethnographic accounts, socio-historical perspectives and philosophical reflections. This book contributes to critical thinking about globalization and educational knowledge and, at the same time, opens our spirits to the theoretical opportunities and educational enrichment that the globalization era offers. This is a compelling collection for anthropologists, sociologists, educational researchers, and anyone who seeks to understand the need of new modes of thinking about education in the global era. CONTRIBUTORS: Robert Arnove, Aaron Benavot, Eyal Ben Ari, Roser Cussó, Yossi Dahan, Roger Dale, Oren Lallo, Julia Lerner, Orna Naftali, Julia Resnik, Susan Robertson, Philip Wexler and Yossi Yonah.

"Preparing students to participate fully in today's and tomorrow's world demands that we nurture their global competence, and this book shows teachers how to do just that. In a world rife with rapid change, environmental vulnerabilities, and racial inequities, this second edition of Educating for Global Competence poses an urgent question: What matters most for students to understand about our complex and interconnected world so they can participate fully in its future? Veronica Boix Mansilla from and Anthony W. Jackson identify the key skills, values, and attitudes that K-12 students must cultivate to thrive in the 21st century. The book features a practical framework for global competence education. The framework's four dimensions focus on developing students' capacity to * Examine local, global, and intercultural issues. * Understand and appreciate the perspectives and worldviews of others. * Engage in open, appropriate, and effective interactions across cultures. * Take action toward collective well-being and sustainable development. This edition includes many new authentic examples of integrating global competence into curriculum, instruction, and assessment across subject areas. Through these examples, we see the practical ways educators can prepare young people to see the complexities of the world and to develop the skills needed to explore and solve problems on a global scale. Educating for Global Competence shows teachers, administrators, and policymakers how they can leverage their influence to make teaching for global competence a compelling endeavor that yields world-changing results."--
