This document summarizes Simon Marginson's presentation on globalization and higher education. Marginson discussed early expectations of globalization in higher education, how it has actually played out, and the new spatiality in higher education. Some key points include the rise of research and higher education capacity in East Asia, particularly China, South Korea, Singapore and other countries. While expectations of a fully integrated global higher education market did not come to pass, cultural globalization and the spread of the research university model have progressed significantly.

On the second lecture we discussed portfolio contents in pictures, text and audio/video. The technical practicalities of images, video and audio were discussed, as well as how to produce text that is representative and reflective. The ongoing facet in all of this is to remember the relation between public and private contents.

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldabaux singapore
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.
Succession “Losers”: What Happens to Executives Passed Over for the CEO Job?
By David F. Larcker, Stephen A. Miles, and Brian Tayan
Stanford Closer Look Series
Overview:
Shareholders pay considerable attention to the choice of executive selected as the new CEO whenever a change in leadership takes place. However, without an inside look at the leading candidates to assume the CEO role, it is difficult for shareholders to tell whether the board has made the correct choice. In this Closer Look, we examine CEO succession events among the largest 100 companies over a ten-year period to determine what happens to the executives who were not selected (i.e., the “succession losers”) and how they perform relative to those who were selected (the “succession winners”).
We ask:
• Are the executives selected for the CEO role really better than those passed over?
• What are the implications for understanding the labor market for executive talent?
• Are differences in performance due to operating conditions or quality of available talent?
• Are boards better at identifying CEO talent than other research generally suggests?
Session by Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills and Special Advisor on Education Policy to the Secretary-General, OECD
The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) examines not just what students know in science, reading and mathematics, but what they can do with what they know. Results from PISA allow policy makers around the world to set policy targets against measurable goals achieved by other education systems, and learn from policies and practices applied elsewhere. Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills will present an overview of the PISA 2015 results for science and students’ attitudes towards learning science, including their expectations of working in science-related careers. The presentation will also examine how performance and equity have evolved across PISA-participating countries and economies, and provide insights on education policies that can help to foster improvements in equity and outcomes.

"Talent for Innovation: The Role of Universities." Ned CostelloAsia Matters
Ned Costello of Irish Universities Association gives the speech at the Asia Ireland Higher Education and Global Talent Forum in Dublin, 9 July as part of Asia Business Week Ireland 2015
1. DBA 10th Anniversary Conference, University of Bath:
Disruptive Change and Innovation in Higher Education
Globalization and
higher education:
Taking stock
Simon Marginson
Centre for the Study of Higher Education
University of Melbourne
2. Taking stock
• Early (c. 1990) expectations of globalization
• How it has worked out
• New spatiality in higher education
• Rise and rise of North East Asia/Singapore
• Concluding thoughts
4. Globalization: ‘the widening, deepening and speeding
up of all forms of world-wide interconnectedness’
- David Held and colleagues, Global Transformations 1999, p. 2
5. Neo-liberal expectations of globalization
Weakened national sovereignty and national regulation
Integrated world-markets, removal of trade barriers
One Anglo-American political culture
Reduced global poverty, advancing prosperity all-round
In higher education: WTO-GATS agenda in national
systems, global market in student places, e-Universities
6. Arjun Appadurai’s expectations *
Globalization as extended and intensified modernization
Globalization manifest in distinctive ‘scapes’—
financescapes, ethnoscapes, technoscapes,
mediascapes, ideoscapes—with uneveness and
disjuncture between them
Nation-state in decline and crisis
Deterritorialization of identities
* Modernity at large: Cultural dimensions of globalization (1996)
10. Cultural globalization has exceeded
mainstream expectations
Global English, Internet subjectivities, organizational uniformity
across the world, ideology of universal capitalism, one-world science
system, research university template, rankings, etc
13. A new spatiality in higher education
• One (imagined) university world with universal ranking
• Spread of capacity in higher education and research to a
growing number of countries
• Regionalisation as a response to globalisation
• Rise of East Asia and, to an extent, rise of Latin America
• Global projects in national systems and institutions:
Partnerships, consortia, hubs, education theme-parks,
knowledge cities, cross-border campuses, etc

Globalization manifest in distinctive YES, MEDIASCAPES AND
‘scapes’—financescapes, ethnoscapes, TECHNOSCAPES ARE
MORE ADVANCED THAN
technoscapes, mediascapes, THE OTHERS
ideoscapes—with uneveness and
disjuncture between them
Nation-state in decline and crisis WRONG CALL
Deterritorialization of identities BOTH GLOBAL AND
LOCATED IDENTITIES
36. More than one modernity
Convergent capitalist political economies and the growth of
global science are not ‘one thing’. They are articulated
through several distinctive political-cultural configurations
37. ‘For 300 years, all of humanity has certainly become more
closely linked to one another through colonialism, unequal
trade and technological development. Yet a common path
hardly exists between the colonizer and the
colonized, between Africa and the US, or between China
and the European powers.’
- Wang Hui, The End of the Revolution: China and the limits of
modernity, 2009, p. 85.
