There is considerable debate as to the nature, extent and significance of globalisation. There is also a great deal of discussion of its implications for education, particularly in relation to the spread of global policy. The discussion of globalisation and educational policy has two interrelated aspects - first, the examination of policies as they migrate around the globe, and second, the exploration of the processes of migration and how similar policies emerge in different national contexts. The authors of this book provide a fresh examination of the changes and development that globalisation in education has had on pedagogy. They consider different pedagogic practices and introduce a range of literature from around the world. This pedagogic text will help the reader to consider the impact of globalising processes on many different sectors of education and training.
