Editor's Notes
- Growing interconnectivity worldwide - breadth, scope and depth
- Rising demand for Education It is now commonplace to say that HE participation rates of 40 to 50 % are considered vital to countries’ economic growth and demand is growing worldwide. The challenge is how to make HE more accessible to ethnic and linguistic minorities, to indigenous groups, to those living in marginalized regions – one strategy is to create policies that promote access to learning across borders and to academic programmes and staff that respect cultural and linguistic diversity. 2. Diversification of provision and modes of study QA is essential to protect students from fraudulent and low quality providers, many of which offer costly online courses that are not recognised anywhere – bogus qualifications. Trends in HE – globalisation new and developing technologies revolutionising delivery of knowledge, abilities to interact with learners, freedom of access to information Information & Communications Technology (ICT) Relates to the impact of ICT on all aspects of life and learning – open, online and distancelearning (ODL), and the growth of open universities, which are making HE more accessible, especially for working adults. Commitment to mass HE – political and economic European agenda – knowledge based economy Staff and students can travel (in practice not as much), but note flows in to UK since accession states joined EU … Students – will move 4. Lifelong learning HE systems are being challenged to become more flexible in terms of entry and exit, to recognize qualifications gained through work experience and to develop new programmes adapted to changing social and economic needs. This involves partnerships to make closer links with the world of work and help bridge the gap between supply and demand for higher-level skills and qualifications. Social Responsibility HE plays a strategic role in preparing people not only for their place in society (citizenship) but for the contribution they can make individually and collectively to society at large and to national socio-economic development. Society Higher education has a strong correlation with measures of a ‘good society’ with graduates demonstrating greater social and civic duty.
- Note: commitment re student mobility NUS – 25%; SUNY – 10% SJTU – 20%; Stanford – 40% Stanford has 10 campuses overseas UNESCO – 2.8m international mobility
- Capacity-building through the development of early-career staff Joint research on topics of mutual interest, but of developmental relevance to Tanzania. Curriculum support and development. Capacity-building of support staff.
