The SIO, along with the president of an institution, has been identified as the most important catalyst…

In the last three decades, there has been a rush towards internationalizing higher education. The international double/joint degree programs are one of the drivers of internationalisation activities. Many African universities have evolved to offer their students these opportunities for academic mobility. This study is a phenomenological…

This dissertation consists of two chapters on topics in Industrial Organization. In Chapter 1, I discuss a central question of the policy debate on public education: how to get more for less. Charter schools have been a tool in this arena to pressure traditional public schools to improve or lose students to them. Moreover, charter schools…

This article contributes to the growing debates about the criticality of global education (GE). Our study responds to the critical post/decolonial debates that point out that GE remains complicit in the perpetuation of social inequalities in the world. Contrary to the macro discursive character of those studies that show that GE is complicit in…

Philippine higher education is fraught with challenges in access, relevance, and quality. Initiatives at addressing these issues have often been adopted as government-mandated regulations. Academic program offerings are likewise highly regulated. Private institutions make up most of the higher education providers but differentiation in regulatory…

As global mobility and communications proliferate, ever-increasing exchanges and influences occur across cultures, geographies, politics, and positions. This paper addresses the practice of literacy education in this context, and in particular the nature of engagement across difference and the role of the imaginary in literacies of globality.…

In particular, it identifies two related educational philosophies that propel colonization and, in turn, proposes…
