Title:Internationalizing Education: Humanist desires, pragmatic demands, new openings?
Abstract:Drawing upon his research on the creation and evolution of the International Baccalaureate, Professor Paul Tarc will discuss how the normative desires of international education come in tension with the more pragmatic realities of internationalization in a globalizing world. Is internationalizing education ultimately no more than branding and consumer satisfaction? What new ‘openings’ might be possible amidst the ‘short circuits’ in current times?
