Introduction
In recent decades, the powerful processes and rapid growth which is occurring called "globalization". These processes affect the economy, society, culture, communities, environment and the people`s lifestyle around the world.Globalization produces standards in many areas which produce frequent changes in almost all areas of life. In the processes of globalization - states, communities, financial companies and individuals from all over the world make close physical or virtual connections, almost without consideration of the national barriers. This allows a quick transition of products, capital, people, information and ideas - from place to place; Economies, cultures and political movements consistent with each other and supply each other; and people around the world are developing similar tastes and cultural practices. The term "global village" use to describe this situation. This force companies and systems to adapt themselves to the environment which is developing and changing, and at the same they should generate changes and reforms. "External factors" and "local factors" require all systems in general to make changes, and in particular the educational system.
Globalization of education relates to discuss global processes and their impact on the educational practices and the local political. That means that events which occurring at the global level affect the school systems at national and local levels. There is an ongoing and dynamic interaction between the two systems which vary accordingly. Spring Joel (2009), stated in his book that “although nations continue to independently control their school systems…many nations choose to adopt global policies in order to compete in the global economy.

...d the community - Integration of technology information will allow students to pursue what they learned in class at home, while creating a continuum between classroom activities and home. This will allow parents to be active partners in the learning process of their children.
Appointment of Information Technology Coordinator - Appointed coordinator from school teaching staff that would coordinate all the activities that described above, along with school site maintenance as a base for school activities.
Monitoring and evaluation - School will carry out monitoring and evaluation activities to test the planning compared to performance, as well as testing the results and achievements, for each of the areas mentioned above. Control and evaluation of the results will be the basis for an annual summary report for updating and upgrading the program from year to year.
Monitoring and evaluation are integral parts of management and provide a link between planning and implementation. While monitoring focuses on the activities and outputs, evaluation focuses on the outcome and goals. Monitoring focuses on inputs and outputs and is the continuous process of gathering information to measure against the goals and objectives. Evaluation, like monitoring, is a continuous process. Evaluation provides feedback on whether plans have been met and the reasons for success or failure. Evaluation should highlight shortcomings so they can be identified and corrected. It should provide direction for future plans. It is important to monitor and assess the on-going performance of teams and individuals, in order to evaluate the progress towards agreed objectives. Monitoring mostly involves keeping track of what is going on. By undertaking this regularly, we have the opportunity to make changes and adjustments, to ensure that any areas of concern are addressed.

The world grows smaller and smaller as time goes on; maybe not literally, but definitely through some points of view. With everything and everyone being more connected than ever now thanks to advances in communicational technology and with the merging of cultures from all over the world, a suitable form of education needs to become the standard to accommodate such a world. Global education teaches students about the world’s different cultures, traditions, religions, languages and other important global factors contributing to our modern world. According to various recent studies, The U.S. falls behind many other nations regarding their global education standards (Webb). How then, can the U.S. or any other nation with similar education struggles
Access – Develop and implement a staff and student technology model that provides “just in time” access to technology and resources i.e., improved teacher technology, modern lab facilities with flexible hours, mobile/flexible student technology including strategic access to the web.
Andy Green’s article on the role of globalisation and comparative education explores the effects of globalisation in changing education and its implication for comparative study. He questions whether the decline of nation states constructs the national system as obsolete. His article considers the importance of studying educational systems as well as inquires to define the field of comparative education by reviewing how globalisation is changing education and comparative study. Green assesses the changing relations between education and the nation states, and concludes that the national education system is far from obsolete.
In today’s continuously changing world, many experts say that globalization is what every business, organization, and nation should seek and welcome as a positive change. However, many people are unaware of the main focus and meaning of Globalization, especially in comparison to Localization. A large number of people believe that globalization is just another common word used to refer to changes and differences that cannot be explained or accounted for. Therefore, many different activities or changes are improperly labeled to be a part of or caused by globalization.
“Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school” this quote by Albert Einstein states the importance of education, its influence on our daily lives and its power over all other devices. My teacher once asked me what’s easier, to remember or to forget? I answered confidently “to forget” but he made me realize I was wrong, I can never forget the alphabet “a” for example even if I try erasing it from my memory; moral of the story is that education will stay with you for the rest of your life.
A continuation you can see a vision general about Globalization. This is not more that study Global Citizenship. You can see in these explorations a correlation in former global. Globalization is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon. It is the process of international integration as a product of exchange of world views, products ideas and other aspects of culture. It is the process of international integration as a product of change of world .Globalization can do the different People because this creates economic and political positive with your technology. This Global are study different for example global climate, communication, solutions in global.
We cannot stop the phenomenon of globalization due to strong interdependence of our lives on those things which are a product of globalization. It has complicated the process of education but has also created many opportunities for countries to break out of the traditional models of education. The idea of global citizen is seen as a person who can act locally but think globally, is a goal that keeps an eye on maintaining cultural diversity while exposing a country’s citizen to the benefits of globalization. Cultural diversity can be strengthened through globalization by providing means and resources to support cultural groups attempting to make a difference in society while maintaining their distinctive set of values and
Globalization can be defined as the international incorporation which results from the exchange of products, culture, ideas, and worldviews. It may also be defined as the increased flow of people, information, and goods across international boundaries. Increase in transportation and the internet has brought about an increase in globalization. Three different forms of globalization dominate the world which are; economic globalization which is the rise in the economic dependence of national economies all over the world due to a rise in to and fro movement of technology, capital, and service from one country to another, political globalization which is different government sectors using the same method, practice, and ideology, and social globalization which involves the unceasing spread of religious beliefs and ideals, whether by the use of soft means such as persuasion or by the use of force. Some individuals and social groups resist globalization because they belief that globalization would destroy their culture and their natural environment, bring ...
Globalization is the connection of different parts of the world. Globalization results in the expansion of international, cultural, economic, and political activities. As people, ideas, knowledge, and goods move easily around the globe, the experiences of people around the world become more similar. (“Definition of Globalization“, n.d., ¶ 1)
If technology travels at the speed of sound, then the impact of technology can be said to travel at the speed of light. In the first twenty years of man and machine collaboration, technology isolated people to a certain degree, leading to an inward search of meaning between the two. In effect, there was less, not more, collaboration. The present, however, is far different as educators, students and institutions work to overcome the tech shock and begin to look outward at the possibility of utilizing technology for widespread collaborative purposes. The outcomes of the collision between technology and education within the global realm are better relations and more equal educational opportunities.
Explain the concept of culture. Why is it important to avoid ethnocentricity and gain cultural literacy?
A question raised here that why we called the world as a Global Village or what does Globalization mean in real? If we look few years back, I was very difficult for people to get them connected or make contact with their dear ones who lived in far areas, people just knew about the famous food of any country but didn’t have availability to have it. People didn’t get full information of any news at the time, what’s going on other countries; they didn’t have any access to make them updated with all this stuff. But now a day, the scenario gets change with the help of new scientific inventions in media sector. Communication is one of the basic elements which play an important role in flourishing the process of globalization in all over the world. Technology is the basic extension of increasing communication at same time in different places. Technology eliminates the concepts of space and distance; it becomes easy for anyone to get connected with anyone at any corner of world through using internet, social websites and technological tools. New inventions in communication and media
Globalization is one of the main aspects in the 21st century. Globalization has brought the world closer; all the things that are happening nowadays are recognized globally even if they happened locally (Buckley). According to Nayef Al-Rodhan GCSP (Geneva Centre for Security Policy) globalization is not a single word or concept. It contains many other concepts within itself. Globalization is composed of different concepts like incorporation regarding the economics, transmitting information or understandings, stability within beliefs, and other concepts (Al-Rodhan p.3). This paper deals with the definition of Globalization, the advantages and disadvantages of globalization, and based on these information the views that to which extend the globalization is beneficial for majority of the world's population. The concept of globalization has changed the whole shape of the world. It has both its positive and negative impacts on people's life. However, by taking both the advantages and disadvantages into consideration we can find that to a large extend globalization is beneficial for majority of the world's population. With the help of globalization the works that were difficult in past is getting easier in today's environment. People are getting closer to each other, which is a product of globalization. Moreover, the knowledge and informations are being circulated in very good way which is a very good sign for having a good and prosperous life.
