EDGI 500 - Fall 2008 - Module 2

Group #3
- Janet Hudson, Erin Koontz, AJ Juliani, Christine Lara

Group 3 read Leon Tikly's  "Globalisation and Education in the Postcolonial World: towards a conceptual framework" for the Module 2 assignment. Tikly's "article develops a conceptual framework for understanding the relationship between globalisation & education in low income, postcolonial countries, with special reference to the educational systems of sub-Saharan Africa.” The article's purpose is “also to recognize, however, differences in the specific responses to globalisation in different regions of the post-colonial world.”
