Module overview

In recent decades globalisation has impacted national education policies in industrialised, emerging and developing economies. This module will look at the different ways in which some education systems in different regions have changed their policies and provision of education in the hope of raising competitiveness and fitting in with the current knowledge economy. We will look at ways in which these changes have impacted upon the teaching and learning processes of such systems.
