This document discusses higher education in China and issues related to quality and globalization. It makes the following key points:
1. China has experienced rapid expansion of higher education, becoming the largest system in the world, but still faces challenges in improving quality.
2. China is strongly influenced by global trends in higher education like massification, marketization, and globalization, and is working to change its role from a workshop to an innovation-driven economy.
3. Issues of quality, equity, excellence and efficiency in higher education are important both globally and for China as it moves from expansion to improving quality while dealing with internationalization and globalization.

Three messages:
• Senior management in education needs to innovate from within to open up education.
• Governments must take firm decision on holistic policies for open and distance education.
• Stakeholders should team up meeting the two grand challenges through open education and technology enhanced learning.
Social dimension in quality assurance – towards framing the key challengesDominic Orr
The presentation starts out from an understanding of quality assurance, which has a norming and a mapping function in higher education. This means it is also agenda-setting. Assuring the social dimension of higher education provision is a central component of the quality agenda. Therefore, it is necessary to have a discussion on which parts of the higher education lifecycle can be supported and how using quality assurance procedures. There are at least 4 tensions, which challenge any quality assurance procedure for higher education in the context of the social dimension.
The Impact of World University Rankings on Research and Curriculum Developmen...Leslie Chan
The talk identifies the impact of “world university rankings” on research and curriculum development, particularly for universities in the global South. It is argued that relevance of local research and community engagement are better indicators of ‘excellence’ in the university and we need to rethink assumptions behind "objective" indicators that are underlying most of the major world rankings. These rankings have the effect of rendering research from the developing world invisible and dictating curriculum development oriented towards market needs of the global North. Such rankings thus represent a form of social and cognitive exclusion and institution of higher education should strongly resist this agenda, and formulate other forms of "excellence" based on social inclusion and community engagement.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The second round nation-wide evaluation of
undergraduate education in China started in 2012
emphasized the items in red.
Howe to identify quality of HE?
19. • International standard or benchmarks based on the “substantial
equivalence” principal, like “Bologna Process”in Europe and
“Washington Accord” in engineering.
• Student learning centered: emphasizing student learning process
and experience.
• Evidence based and value added: based on the student’s
performance and learning outcomes.
• Improvement focused: using assessment as a tool of improvement.
How to evaluate HE: major trends
Evaluation (assessment) itself is not the purpose. It is for the

22. National Evaluation System in China
with Five Forms of Activities
Integration
Institutions are the major
actors for the QA and QI
Third party evaluation is a
crucial factors influencing
the evaluation process.
Routine data and every
day experience work in
the evidence-based
evaluation.
Program accreditation
based on international
standards is a new
element in building.
University(colleges) and faculties are the major actors in quality improvement.
23. Three types of quality increasing strategies
• State - led : with a clear national goal, strongly supported by
the state and directly under the supervision of the government.
• University ( institution) - led : directly target institutional
needs, with more academic autonomy and deeper cooperation
within the university.
• Government/ university cooperation: integrate the goals of both
state and institutions, balance the interests of the two sides.
With joint efforts from the governments, universities and other relevant forces,
China is building a new quality governance system with the feature of
• global vision-oriented,
• student learning-centered,
• modern technology- supported
• process improvement-focused.

changing characteristics)?
• What is the situation of college student learning
in China influenced by the macro social trends
and modern technology, especially in a rapid
expanded system with an increasing diversity of
institutions and personal characteristics?
• “Students now do not study as hard as the old
days”. How to asses student learning and what
factors affecting student learning?

30. Governing the quality: a long journey
• “Governance” and “quality” are wicked
problems in higher education policy. They are
almost impossible to resolve.
• Student learning must be positioned as a core
objective within institutional and system-level
governance arrangements. Enhancing quality
must be a key objective of governance reform.

Objective of Institutional and System-Level Governance”
