THE IMPACT OF GLOBALIZATION ON EDUCATION

Abstract

Abstract:Globalization has significantly transformed education systems worldwide by influencing curricula, teaching methodologies, policy frameworks, and access to knowledge. This study examines the multifaceted impact of globalization on education, focusing on curriculum internationalization, technological integration, language dominance, and educational inequality. Using mixed research methods, including literature analysis, comparative data review, and survey-based evaluation, the study identifies both positive and negative consequences of globalization in education. Findings indicate that globalization enhances access to knowledge, promotes intercultural competence, and supports academic mobility. However, it also contributes to cultural homogenization, unequal resource distribution, and the dominance of certain languages and educational models. The study concludes that balanced educational policies are necessary to maximize benefits while minimizing risks.
