Looking through the magnifying glass : higher education policy reforms and globalization in JordanTaji, Mona, 1956- January 2004 (has links)
This study was based on the assumption that globalization is behind the initiative for higher education reform in Jordan. The changes stemming from globalization are of such magnitude that they are impacting higher education systems almost everywhere, in varying degrees of intensity. / The conceptual framework of this study is shaped by qualitative methodology, and guided by a social constructivist paradigm, using a case study strategy. My aim is to choreograph this inquiry based on the post-modern notion that there is no single correct interpretation that captures reality. In this study, I identify the forces responsible for the restructuring of higher education in Jordan, to help gauge the scope and dimensions of the changes advanced under the banner of reform. / My aim in this study is to expand the ongoing debate on higher education in the context of globalization. And most importantly for Jordan, I aim to help develop a more coherent, multi-linear view of the dynamics underlying the reforms advanced, and the various impacts of globalization. By providing insight into the relationship between globalization and the needs advanced for higher education policy reforms, this study aims to help work with globalization rather than against it, and invest every effort to benefit from its opportunities.

One university, two universes : the emergence of Alaska native political leadership and the provision of higher education, 1972-85Jennings, Michael L 05 1900 (has links)
This study explores the relationships between the Alaska Native leadership,
its interests in and impacts on higher education in Alaska, and the ways in which
the University of Alaska responded to Alaska Native educational needs and
initiatives, especially during the period from 1972 and 1985. The major question
explored is why and how the University of Alaska system failed to adequately
address the educational needs of Alaska Natives, especially given the level of
political acumen of the Alaska Native leadership, their awareness of the
importance of higher education as a means to control the land base “acquired”
through the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act, the mission statements of the
University concerning the education of Alaska Natives, and the abundance of
petroleum dollars available to the University during that period. While the Alaska
Native leadership was requesting that “appropriate” educational programs be
designed and delivered to rural Alaska Native students, the University of Alaska’s
response to these requests took the form of structural changes within the
institution, rather than substantive change in the content of educational
programs. The study demonstrates that the discrepancy between Alaska Native
requests for substantive educational change and University of Alaska responses
in the form of structural alterations is attributable, in large part, to the opposing
world views of the two sets of actors, and thus to different perceptions of the
nature and role of education in general.

Les changements dus a la globalisation sont d'une telle magnitude qu'ils ont un impact a travers presque tous les niveaux du systeme d'enseignement superieur. Le cadre conceptuel de cette recherche se base sur une approche methodologique qualitative guidee par le paradigme socio-contructivist en utilisant une etude de cas. Le but est d'articuler une methode d'enquete basee sur les notions post-modernes qui pronent qu'il existe plus d'une seule interpretation juste de la realite. Cette etude tente d'identifier les forces directrices de la restructuration du systeme d'education superieure en Jordanie afin de jauger de l'ampleur et les dimensions des changements proposes par la reforme. Le but de cette etude est de contribuer et d'elaborer le debat en cours sur l'enseignement superieur dans le contexte de la globalisation. Plus precisement, cette etude vise a developper une vision plus coherente de la situation. Cette elaboration integre les multiples perspectives et forces sous-jacentes de la reforme proposee ainsi que divers impacts de la globalisation. En articulant les relations entre la globalisation et l'etude des besoins proposes par les politiques de reforme de l'enseignement superieur, cette etude suggere qu'il serait plus benefique de capitaliser sur certains aspects de la globalisation et non de la combattre aveuglement. fr
