Constructing the Global Dimension of Ideological and Political Education From the Perspective of “Community With a Shared Future for Mankind” (Ideological and Political Education Research; Vol. 36, No. 2) Year of publication: 2020 Author: Cao Qingyan | Peng Jiaojiao Corporate author: Harbin University of Science and Technology In the context of building a community with a shared future for mankind, issues such as “global crisis”, the negative impact of ultra-nationalism and the conflicts in the confrontation of “multi-cultures” all challenge the ideological and political education in the context of nation-states. Therefore, it is necessary and urgent to pay attention to the global dimension of ideological and political education. The global dimension of ideological and political education is guided by the concept of “a community with a shared future for mankind” and aims to cultivate social members with global awareness, recognition of global common values and global participation ability. It is not the rejection and denial of the national dimension of ideological and political education, and it is also different from the western global citizenship education in essence. The global dimension of ideological and political education needs to be promoted from three aspects: policy design, multi-force participation and network technology.

The contradiction between students’ cognitive need and ability is resolved accordingly. Thirdly, WOSDEC as the co-creator of “Global Storylines” offers a professional learning program. Teachers are universally supported in terms of theoretical knowledge, practical skills and being involved in the teaching community of global citizenship education.

Comparison on Educational Discourses About Global Citizenship Education Using Network Text Analysis (Global Studies Education; Vol. 11, No. 2) Year of publication: 2019 Author: Kyunghee Park | JiEun Shin Corporate author: Association of | Global Studies Education The purpose of this study is to analyze the differences between ‘global citizenship education’, ‘democratic civic education’, ‘multicultural education’, ‘education for international understanding’, and ‘peace education’. For this, 3,072 research papers from 2000 to 2018 selected, and network text analysis(NTA) was conducted to confirm the characteristics and changes of the five educational discourses. As a result, the commonness and specificities of them were derived through the ‘closeness centrality’ and ‘betweenness centrality’ on the NTA. ‘Global citizenship education’, ‘multicultural education’, and ‘education for international understanding’ have crossed the content area. And ‘education for international understanding’ was based on a multicultural society. The values-oriented between ‘global citizenship education’ and ‘democratic civic education’ were distinguished. Finally, it is suggested that the five educational discourses need to be on the approach of lifelong learning, and they are education oriented toward change in consciousness.
Deleuze’s Experimental Apprenticeship and Global Citizenship Education Year of publication: 2017 Author: Seunghyun Choi Corporate author: Korean Philosophy of Education Society The purpose of this study is to examine the implications of Deleuze’s apprenticeship for Global Citizenship Education. Nowadays, many researchers are interested in the meaning of learning as a bridge between ideal and practice. Deleuze’s apprenticeship suggests the logic of the ‘composition’ with others in the context of overcoming ‘the societies of control’. The structure of this argument consists in ‘process’ including involution and in ‘signs’ that are not reduced to information. It aims at ‘becoming’. The global citizenship lesson focusing on the element of multi-cultural experience of Korean elementary school students has a well-balanced relationship with Deleuze’s apprenticeship as experimentation. Lastly, we are able to understand the meaningful implications for the aporia in Global Citizenship Education, that is the uncertainty of academic conceptualization and the contingency of practice.

Major findings displayed issues and challenges; de-contextualization against local dimension; vague conceptualization of global citizenship education; limitation of transformative pedagogy and learning discourse; indicator development and monitoring issues; a paradigm shift for global citizenship education engaging with lifelong learning.
