Postcolonial Perspectives on Global Citizenship Education Год публикации: 2012 Автор: Vanessa Andeotti | Lynn Mario T. Menezes de Souzz This volume bridges the gap between contemporary theoretical debates and educational policies and practices. It applies postcolonial theory as a framework of analysis that attempts to engage with and go beyond essentialism, ethno- and euro-centrisms through a critical examination of case studies and conceptual issues.
Study on measures taken by municipalities and recommendations for further action to challenge racism through education Год публикации: 2006 Автор: Klaus Starl Организация-автор: European Training and Research Centre for Human Rights and Democracy (Austria) Commitment 8 of the Ten-Point Plan of Action of the European Coalition of Cities against Racism requires the measures “Challenging Racism and Discrimination through Education”. This point aims to improve the access to and enjoyment of all forms of education, as well as the promotion of education in mutual tolerance and understanding. To reach this goal, the members of the coalition have been called to undertake activities, elaborate strategies and establish relevant institutions to influence society and train attitudes, behaviour and skills within the population. They are called to find out causes for racist tendencies among their population and to involve all stakeholders, particularly parents and school officials. As an external expert, the European Training and Research Centre for Human Rights and Democracy in Graz, Austria, (ETC Graz) was commissioned by UNESCO to carry out a study on the measures against racism already in place at a local level and serve as good illustration of “Commitment 8”. A major source of information was the written material provided by the selected cities. Additional or missing information could be obtained through direct exchanges and/or interviews with officers responsible for the municipalities and some NGOs. The material should not to be considered as complete. On the basis of the contributions sent in by the participating cities, the ETC assessed whether these actions/activities meet the objectives of Commitment 8. The authors used the following criteria to make this assessment: Does the action undertaken contribute to a) the improvement of access to education and promote equal opportunities; b) the impact of educational measures on individuals (potential victims and offenders) and on the atmosphere at school and in society. The following recommendations are derived from the eight selected measures documented in Chapter II, and the analysis on their “replicability” in Chapter III. The 12 recommendations explicitly or implicitly refer to the replicable documented measures. Where “replicability” requires specific conditions, or it is recommended to fulfil these conditions firstly, i.e. structural and institutional conditions, these are stated. The 12 recommendations are addressed to municipalities in Europe irrespective of their current membership in the European Coalition of Cities against Racism. As already mentioned the recommendations focus on meeting the requirements of Commitment 8, challenging racism through education.
What parents want: the role of schools in teaching about the wider world Год публикации: 2011 Организация-автор: Think Global | Development Education Association This report presents the findings from a YouGov survey of parents’ attitudes towards their children’s education. The results show that parents of schoolage children think it is vital that schools teach about the wider world. At Think Global we know that many schools and teachers already prioritise such teaching, recognising how important it is to prepare their pupils to live in a globalised world and the positive contribution this can make to pupil attainment and behaviour. This report details the high level of support for schools that decide to prioritise this work; we hope it will provide schools and teachers with the information they need to expand this area of their teaching.

The contribution of "study abroad" programs to Japanese internationalization Год публикации: 2009 Автор: Takako Asaoka | Jun Yano “Study abroad” needs promoting, as it is an effective alternative for many Japanese university students to enhance their international experience and cross-cultural understanding, thus contributing to the internationalization of Japanese universities. To consider what has to be done to promote “study abroad” programs, this research attempts to ascertain (a) the characteristics of the “study abroad” program of Japanese university students, (b) what Japanese university students think about the “study abroad” program, (c) the factors discouraging them from studying abroad, and (d) suggestions made by university staff to promote “study abroad” programs. Online survey results of 173 Japanese university students, interview answers and monthly reports of 20 Japanese university exchange students, opinions of 15 JAFSA members, and the JASSO symposium reports from 2005 to 2007 were used as data for this study. Suggestions are made to enable Japanese university staff to further promote “study abroad” programs among their students.
Global school partnerships programme impact evaluation report Год публикации: 2011 Автор: Juliet Sizmur | Bernadetta Brzyska | Louise Cooper | Jo Morrison | Kathryn Wilkinson | David Kerr Организация-автор: National Foundation for Educational Research The overarching aim of this evaluation is to assess the impact of DFID‟s Global School Partnerships (GSP) programme on levels of global awareness and attitudes to global issues in pupils attending GSP schools in the UK.This main aim can be broken down into four subsidiary aims, namely:1. to measure levels of global awareness and attitudes to global issues amongst pupils taking part in GSP programme activities2. to compare awareness levels and attitudes among pupils in GSP schools with those of pupils in non-GSP schools3. to evaluate whether the impact of GSP on global awareness and attitudes to global issues differs depending on pupils‟ ages and educational stages (e.g. at primary versus secondary level)4. to assess whether levels of awareness and attitudes amongst participating pupils change as the GSP programme becomes more embedded in schools (i.e. whether, over time, the programme has a positive, neutral or negative impact on pupil levels of development awareness).
Programme mondial de partenariats scolaires et Rapport d'évaluation d'impact Год публикации: 2011 Автор: Juliet Sizmur | Bernadetta Brzyska | Louise Cooper | Jo Morrison | Kathryn Wilkinson | David Kerr Организация-автор: National Foundation for Educational Research L'objectif principal de cette évaluation est d'évaluer l'impact de partenariats scolaires internationaux(PSI) et le programme de DFID sur les niveaux de prise de conscience globale et attitudes aux enjeux mondiaux chez les élèves fréquentant les écoles PSI au Royaume-Uni. Cet objectif principal peut être décomposé en quatre objectifs subsidiaires, à savoir: 1. pour mesurer les niveaux de prise de conscience globale et attitudes à l'égard des enjeux mondiaux entre les élèves qui participent aux activités du programme PSI 2. pour comparer les niveaux de sensibilisation et les attitudes des élèves dans les écoles du PSI avec ceux des élèves des écoles non-PSI 3. afin d'évaluer si l'impact du PSI sur la sensibilisation et les attitudes envers les problèmes mondiaux global diffère selon les élèves «âges et niveaux d'enseignement (par exemple, au primaire ou au secondaire) 4. d'évaluer si les niveaux de sensibilisation et attitudes parmi les élèves participants changent à mesure que le programme PSI devient plus intégré dans les écoles (à savoir si, au fil du temps, le programme a un impact positif, neutre ou négatif sur le niveau des élèves de sensibilisation au développement).
