1(a) Comparative education (chapter 8 of the prescribed book)

1. Define “comparative education

Comparative education is a multidisciplinary field of study that
focuses on understanding and analyzing education systems and
practices across different countries or regions. It involves comparing
and contrasting various aspects of education such as curriculum,
pedagogy, policies, administration, and outcomes in order to gain
insights into the similarities, differences, and relationships between
different educational systems. The goal of comparative education is to
deepen our understanding of how education functions in different
contexts and to identify common challenges, best practices, and
potential areas for improvement.



2.Discuss any four phases of the historical evolution of the field of
comparative and international education.

The field of comparative and international education has undergone

social development, equity, and national identity. This phase was
characterized by a more critical approach, considering the cultural,
social, and political contexts of education systems. Comparative
studies expanded beyond Western countries to include Asia, Africa,
and Latin America.

3. Globalization Era (Late 20th to Early 21st Century):
With the advancement of globalization, the field of comparative and
international education experienced an increasing emphasis on the
interconnections between education systems worldwide. There was a
shift towards understanding the impacts of global influences on
education, such as the spread of neoliberal ideologies and the
standardization of educational policies. Comparative studies explored
issues related to international student mobility, transnational
education, and education as a commodity. This phase also witnessed
