Le marché de formation à l'anglais en Chine

Durant les trente dernières années, la Chine est devenue l'un des pays dont l'économie s'est développée extrêmement vite et elle est devenue la destination d'investissements d'outre-mer. Le marché chinois est le plus grand pour beaucoup d'industries dans le monde entier, considérant sa population de plus de 1.3 milliards de consommateurs. En raison de ses caractéristiques particulières, comme la politique, la culture, l'histoire, les habitudes, etc., son économie et ses marchés ont des spécialités qui sont évidemment distinctes de celles de l'Amérique du Nord et de l'Europe. Une compréhension profonde de ce marché spécial est "la classe obligatoire" pour les sociétés étrangères qui ont l'intention d'entrer, et même l'ambition de réussir, sur ce marché énorme et incertain. Cette recherche est un rapport industriel de la formation à l'anglais en Chine n'incluant pas de diplôme ou d'enseignement venant de l'organisation gouvernementale et officielle, comme les lycées et les collèges, mais venant d'organisations privées de formation à l'anglais. Elle utilise aussi la théorie des cinq forces de Porter et la théorie d'analyse de l'environnement industriel pour livrer des conclusions quant au degré de compétition et à la situation du marché de la formation à l'anglais en Chine. Avec cette recherche, nous essayons d'offrir à des sociétés internationales un exemple typique comme référence pour entrer sur ce marché en plein développement et faire face à un environnement industriel distinct, avec son choc culturel, politique, économique, son choc des valeurs quant au client, ou tout autre aspect. À la fin, nous avons essayé de dégager deux points d'implication qui seraient intéressants ou inspirants pour de nouvelles recherches

The commodification of British higher education : international student curriculum initiatives

This thesis examines the effects of market forces in UK higher education on professional practice in universities and their consequences for the educational experience of international students and those who teach them. It explores whether it is possible in practice for HEIs to reconcile the professional ethics of educators with externally set targets and economic imperatives in an environment which is commercial in orientation and where operational practices are based on a free market philosophy. Policies and practices in international student affairs in Britain are viewed in historical perspective, charting the transition of roles from guest to client with a consequent shift in the demography of the international student body. This, coinciding with a decrease in the public funding of universities, has meant that international study has grown in importance in terms of revenue. The argument is put that this has resulted in international students' acquiring a measure of consumer power the demands of which are thought to impact on British HE. Moreover, the new clients are less likely to possess cultural capital and relevant background in British institutions than their predecessors, and this is liable to impact on curriculum planning and policy making. The thesis identifies Japan as a major source of full-fee paying students. An educational profile of Japan demonstrates how the Japanese have made continuing use of international study to meet the development needs of their society. It shows how, throughout their history, they have been engaged in the importation of educational goods and services and in the consumption of international education overseas. A case study of a curriculum initiative, customised for Japanese students is presented which exemplifies the place of international study in contemporary British higher education. It is field-focused and uses a participant observer ethnographic approach underpinned by statistical data from the 1960s to the present day, thus setting the commodification issue in a historical continuum of international student policy making. The study identifies the factors and forces driving Japanese students abroad and discloses the impact of these movements on the operational practices of institutions, thus serving as a microcosm of the political economy of study abroad. The study concludes that external commercial pressures can be hazardous to academic freedom and professional autonomy yet the consequent operating environment can be exploited in the pursuance of curriculum innovation and the professional development of practitioners and planners

Annual Report of the University, 1968-1969, Volumes 1 & 2

At least once every ten years the University of New Mexico has a chance to see itself as others sec it. The opportunity is provided by its accrediting agency. Routinely every decade, the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools sends a team of scholars and administrators to campus to determine whether the University is maintaining the prerequisites to continuing accreditation as a doctoral degree granting institution. While the examination is scheduled routinely, it is by no means a routine visit. The visitation team probes such areas as curricula, library, finances, administration, day-to-day operations, and long-range plans. Its report, much like that of an auditor, helps provide operational guidelines for succeeding years. The University of New Mexico in 1969 underwent its decennial examination by the North Central Association. The team of visitors prepared a comprehensive report touching on many areas vital to the University\u27s future. Findings of the committee and the University\u27s responses to them serve as the basis for this annual report of the President
