“…(Yang 2003, p. 284) Thus, the national and local may be trumped by the global if a developing nation wishes to improve its status, and hopefully even compete, in higher education internationally. This is confirmed by Engel and Siczek (2017) -but in the developed world -in their analysis of internationalization strategies in Australia, Canada, Ireland, the UK and the USA (i.e. the English-speaking countries).…”

In contemporary writing on higher education, globalization and internationalization are increasingly popular terms, and they are also increasingly being used as frameworks for higher education research. This article discusses the meaning and application of these terms, documents their usage in higher education research, and critically reviews this research and its usefulness for higher education policy. It concludes that, while many interpret the growing globalization and internationalization of higher education as another effect of neo-liberal agendas, the role of higher education institutions as instigators of further globalization and internationalization should not be ignored, while the compromises they make in doing so need to be acknowledged. It also suggests that higher education researchers themselves need to move out of their national comfort zones and think and research more globally.

“…A recent focus has been on the role of higher education in developing and promoting 'global citizenship' (e.g. Aktas et al 2017, Engel andSiczek 2017, Friedman 2018), the notion that all students now need to be prepared for taking their place in an increasingly global economy and society.…”

“…Against the worldwide expansion of higher education, GCE has become an increasing concern for HEIs (George-Jackson, 2010; Stein, 2015). Universities have made explicit connections to the processes of globalization and internationalization (Engel and Siczek, 2018;EUA, 2013). Both Hammond and Keating (2018) and Friedman (2018) suggest that governments and universities, including those within the UK, are under increasing pressure to internationalize both their practice and their student cohort, while developing their global reach within a global framework of neo-liberal economic policies and practices.…”

This article, derived from a larger EU-funded empirical research project, draws on a comparative analysis of pioneering global citizenship education (GCE) in-service primary teacher education programmes, as theorized and practised in four European countries, to explore how higher education institutions (HEIs), non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and participating teachers shape the development of content-based, competence-based and values-based approaches to teacher education. With reference to the multiple-site case study in Ireland, Austria, the Czech Republic and Italy, this article argues that, through investment, structural and institutional support and professional teacher education expertise, HEIs are, alongside NGOs and in-service teachers, pivotal actors in the collaborative development of GCE teacher education. The article concludes that successful collaborations can foster teacher agency through transformative, values-based approaches to GCE teacher education.

This research is based on the desire to increase the amount of research and the number of publications resulting from the increased ease of finding research groups and accelerating the process of disseminating information in accordance with the field of research. This study was applied to a research group consisting of 50 research lecturers from universities. This research method was conducted by comparing the ease felt by the research lecturer in using the thinkgather.com application. The analysis applied in this study is based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). TAM is a method used to determine the tendency of users to use new technology. The results of the research conducted are lecturers, as users of the thinkgather.com application, who have a high desire in using this application (BI). This was obtained because respondents showed a high Perceived Usefulness (U) of 82,5% and showed a high Perceived Ease of Use (E) of 85%. Based on these results states that the research lecturer, as a user, feels increased ease of collaboration and networking.
