The purpose of this paper is to examine current status, issues, and visions of higher education reform in Korea by focusing
on ‘Brain Korea 21’ (BK21). ‘Brain Korea 21’ (BK21), is a major higher education reform project initiated by the South Korean
government to prepare Korean human resources for the 21st century. ‘Brain Korea 21’ (BK21) aims at fostering world-class graduate schools and high quality scholars by providing funds
to higher education institutions. In this paper, societal, economic and educational changes which led to the initiation of
BK 21 and its implementation processes are described first. Then, some resistance and controversies against BK 21 are discussed.
Major achievements of BK 21 are highlighted and future directions of higher education reform in South Korea are addressed. 相似文献

This study aims to understand equity issues of international students’ learning in Korean higher education institutions by engaging with the issue of racism and identifies how international students in Korea reshape their learning trajectory and how we could provide equitable and quality education for international students. Espousing a qualitative case study design, six students from different background were interviewed to examine features of perceived institutional racism based on their learning experience in Korea. Major findings showed that internationalization has not been fulfilled in terms of engaging with international students although Korean government and higher education institutions have developed relevant policy to attract international students. This study indicates that Korean universities need to reconstruct their social, cultural, and institutional systems to embrace equity, diversity and inclusiveness to empower international students’ capacity. 相似文献

The study investigated the stakeholders’ perceptions of South Korea’s higher education internationalization policy. Based on the research framework that defines four policy values—propriety, effectiveness, diversity, and engagement, the convergence model was employed with a concurrent mixed method sampling strategy to analyze the stakeholders’ perceptions. According to the findings, the stakeholders perceived that the government’s internationalization policy to date has contributed to the international competitiveness of Korean universities by and large in a quantitative manner. Their views however signaled that the government should consider the quality and identity of Korean higher education institutions when designing and implementing internationalization policy. Based on the implications that the findings have in the policy context, this study suggested two points for future policy research into Korean higher education internationalization: (1) develop a glonacal definition of world-classness for Korean universities and (2) build up a mixture model of centralization and decentralization for the government-university relations, which encourages internal self-governance of Korean universities. 相似文献

Two important sets of performance indicators have become established in the United Kingdom: research quality ratings and teaching quality ratings. The research quality ratings and, to a lesser extent, the teaching quality ratings, influence the level of government funding provided to higher education institutions. This paper considers the correlation between the two ratings and the possible consequences of policies that reshape the higher education sector by concentrating research resources in a limited number of institutions. Comparisons are made between quality assurance/assessment approaches in the United Kingdom and those in the United States. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the Korean government’s policies for building world class universities (WCUs) and their implications for Korean higher education institutions. Primarily through an extensive literature review, but also through a discussion of field interviews and the experiences of one of the authors as a public official in education policy making, this study examines the Korean government’s policies to establish WCUs, as well as the outcomes and consequences of these policies. Using the framework suggested by Salmi (The challenge of establishing world-class universities. The World Bank, Washington, DC, 2009), the study seeks to answer the following research questions: (a) What policies has the Korean government implemented to build WCUs since the late 1990s? (b) How has the government’s quest to build WCUs transformed the Korean higher education system? Specifically, how have HEIs in Korea responded to the policies implemented? (c) What issues and challenges has the Korean higher education system confronted in its quest to build WCUs? 相似文献

Along with the “massification” of higher education in China since the late 1990s, the issue of quality and excellence appeared
at the top of China’s higher education agenda. Since faculty evaluation of teaching is one of the major approaches adopted
by China’s higher education sector to pursue quality and excellence, it is valuable to examine the effectiveness of faculty
evaluation of teaching practices adopted by the Chinese higher education institutions (HEIs). Study of current literature
reveals some similarities and differences between the faculty evaluation of teaching policies and practices between Chinese
and American higher education sectors. This paper examines the specific practices adopted by some top-tier Chinese HEIs and
American elite colleges and universities, summarizes and analyzes the major differences and similarities of faculty evaluation
of teaching practices between these two countries’ top-tier HEIs, and discusses the applicability of the American models to
the Chinese setting of higher education. Finally, a set of best practices regarding faculty evaluation of teaching are proposed
for Chinese HEIs. 相似文献

This article discusses how in South Korea, English-medium international schools, initially established to educate foreign residents, have recently transformed themselves into private providers of global education for South Koreans. The article explains the social, economic and political circumstances under which the South Korean government has allowed this transformation to take place in response to the forces of globalisation as well as to South Korean elites' educational demand. The article argues that English-medium international schools are elite-class reproducing institutions. The role of English, one of the major imperatives of global capitalism, will also be discussed, as this language has been impinging on South Korea's education and labour market. 相似文献

Korea opened up to foreign intercourse in 1876, when the country concluded its first international treaty with Japan. Similar treaties with European and American nations followed during the 1880s. The period until 1910, when Korea was annexed to the Japanese Empire, saw manifold attempts to reform as well as resistance to these reforms. Against the background of research on the world institutionalisation of education, this contribution analyses the changes that the opening of Korea entailed in the field of education, especially focusing on newly established forms of education. First, modern education was characterised by newly created institutions and curricula. These institutions can be classified according to the actors engaged in their creation, private Korean citizens, foreign missionary actors and the Korean government. Second, new educational discourses and practices characterised modern education in Korea. These new discourses played a central role in negotiating Korean nationalism and in culturally positioning Korea between China and the “West”. Bodily practices were radically changed through uniforms, new hairstyles and military drills. A new system of classroom interaction was introduced to Korea. 相似文献

This article questions the assumption that increasing competition among higher education institutions is the best method of
achieving a strong higher education sector in developing countries. It notes that there has been increasing emphasis on the
importance of higher education institutions for sustainable development, particularly because of their importance to the global
knowledge economy. For the same reason, the appropriate management of the relationship between the state and higher education
institutions is vital to a strong and dynamic future for these institutions. This paper proposes a menu of options for higher
education governance, grouped around ‘state-centric’ and ‘neo-liberal’ models of development. The ‘state-centric’ model proposed
is based on a variety of examples of high performing Asian economies, in particular, while the ‘neo-liberal’ model is based
on emerging trends in higher education management in countries such as Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom.
The paper suggests that despite pressure across the globe to encourage a market among universities, this may not always be
the most efficient use of resources, or the best way to integrate universities in a country’s drive for economic growth. 相似文献

Learning no longer takes place as effectively as it did before in most current Korean classrooms. Many teachers have voiced
concerns about a notably reduced level of students’ interest in and enthusiasm for learning school materials, lack of students’
attention to their lectures, and lack of students’ involvement in classroom activities. This negative change, which has been
observed since around 1997, is often referred to as “school collapse” in Korea, meaning classroom breakdown. The paper investigates
the factors that have lead to the phenomenon of the school collapse, introduces the 7th National Curriculum as one of the new reform approaches of the Korean government, and makes some suggestions to ensure more
autonomy and diversity in classrooms to promote effective teaching and learning. 相似文献

The features of Korean higher education development are related to sociocultural tradition (Confucian tradition), the model
university ideas, and economic development in Korea. The modern university ideas adopted in Korean are based on the German
model which was established by the Japanese colonial government and drawing on the US university model after the World War
II. However, the modern university ideas are intertwined with socio-cultural factors and have been embedded in current Korean
universities. As well as the western ideas and the Confucian tradition, the growth of Korean higher education has relied upon
the rapid growth of the Korean economy. Education development is well aligned with economic development in Korea thanks to
government policy initiatives. This framework can be applied in the analysis of higher education development in other countries.
Higher education development cannot be solely explained by individual cultural, historical or economic factor. These three
factors are interlinked and influence the development of Korean higher education. 相似文献

During the past twenty years, higher education institutions in China have gained enormous rights due to both the streamlining
of administration and the decentralization of the government. Their legal status has hence changed dramatically. However,
the expansion of their rights has also brought about the possibility of higher education institutions profiting by pursuing
development. The influence of the market has begun to permeate higher education institutions, and this change has shown some
characteristics of induced institutional changes. Accordingly, higher education institutions should be regulated from the
perspective of public law, so as to ensure their public nature.

Trade in Australian education services has expanded rapidly over recent years. The sector is the third largest exporter of
Australian services. In 2001–2002, exports of education were about $A 4.2 billion. Government assistance to the sector includes
export market development, regulation of education standards, and funding education activities; university research and development,
for example. This paper examines the case for further government intervention in the export of education, and the appropriate
forms of assistance if further government intervention is justified. The paper predominately focuses on assisting higher education
exports because this activity dominates education exports. 相似文献
