Question 1 [40 marks]
Questions 1(a) (20 marks) and 1(b) (20 marks) – compulsory
1(a) Comparative education (chapter 8 of the prescribed book)
1) Define “comparative education”. (Page 146) (4)
Comparative education can be defined as having a three-in-one perspective on education: an
education system perspective, a contextual perspective and a comparative perspective. comparison
of different practices in education in different countries. describe, define, analyze, interpret and
compare education systems.
A study of how the philosophy, objectives and aims, policy and practice of education in other
countries influence the general development, policy and practice of education in a particular country.
A study of how the development of education in the past, across the ages and continents, has
influenced the development of education in particular countries.
A study of the school systems of two or more countries, and of the administrative machineries set
up to implement or to control the implementation of government policies at various levels of
education systems.
2) Discuss any four phases of the historical evolution of the field of comparative and international
education. (Page 140-145) (8)
a) Travelers’ tales since time immemorial
The first human beings upon making contact with other communities, societies and cultures, made
people to start comparing their own (societies, communities and cultures) with other people they
contacted. Such comparisons of educational practices can today still be found in the non-scholarly
literature in, for example, newspapers and the popular media (internet). As these travelers’ tales are
told casually and are neither exhaustive nor systematic nor objective, this phase could be regarded as
a pre-scientific phase of comparative education.
b) The systematic study of foreign education systems for borrowing
Government officials studied education systems and educational development in foreign countries to
borrow best policies and practices, i.e. to import them to improve their own education systems back to
their home countries. Studying foreign education systems to borrow best practice is what many
governments worldwide still do today.
