Global education interconnects methods of teaching from worldwide systems to encourage
the international development of environmental sustainability, as well as contribution toward
fortifying global industries.Globalization enhances the student’s ability to acquire and utilize
knowledge. It also enhances the ability of learners to access, assess, adopt, and apply
knowledge, to think independently to exercise appropriate judgment and to collaborate with
others to make sense of new situations.Furtheremore, new methods of learning such as elearning, blended learning was quickly adopted.The potential fallback of globalization in
education can be the increased technological gaps and digital divides between advanced
countries and less developed countries. Indeed, globalization has helped many countries
around the world in improving their education systems and literacy rates.

Globalization Helps Spread Knowledge and Technology Around The World
SUMMARY:
Technological progress is a key driver of improvements in incomes and standards of living.
It also helped to boost innovation and productivity even in the recent period of weak global
productivity growth.Indeed, during 1995–2014, the United States, Japan, Germany, France, and
the United Kingdom (the G5) produced three-fourths of all patented innovations globally. This
suggests that in the future they will be important sources of new technology, during the period
under study, the G5 constituted the bulk of the technology frontier.Therefore, the way
technology spreads across countries is central to how global growth is generated and shared
across countries. Globalization boost technological development which have made increasing
use of the available foreign knowledge and technology to boost their innovation capacity and
labor productivity growth. Hence, globalization is a critical factor in the penetration and diffusion
of digital technologies.

Philippine’s Globalization: Various Impacts and Challenges
SUMMARY:
Globalization has been very effective in the Philippines. There have been major changes
in the economy since 1995 when the Philippines took part in signing agreements with World
Trade Organization. Globalization has been rapidly developing in the Philippines ever since the
influence of the United States during World War II. There are many crops that are grown in the
Philippines that are shipped and traded all over the world. Some of the most common crops that
are sold are; rice, corn and sweet potatoes.Since the development of globalization in the
Philippines, there have been many advantages that have occurred. Some of these advantages
are Export-oriented agricultural sector that has generated more than sufficient foreign
exchange.there have also been disadvantages of this. There are over 80 million people that
live in the Philippines and 60% of that population live in poverty. It’s globalization has grown
since the development ofcountry,if the progress continues it will eventually reach thegoals that
have been set.

3. Which statement about the author’s point of view do you agree with? Elaborate your
answer.
From my perspective as a student, I completely agree with the first article because this is
what the most I relate to compared to other articles I’ve read. The influence of globalization has
a great impact on the development of education systems around the world. Various
professionals and experts are continuously researching, seeking, and obtaining ideas from
other countries as a result of globalization relating to improving and improvising high-quality
education, particularly in our own country. We essentially adapt what other countries offer for
their students such as the K-12 curriculum that was developed in Western nations. The impacts
of globalization bring out innovative approaches in the field of education such as advancement
and fast expansions of technology and communications.In the midst of pandemic, effective use
of technology in teaching is a great help for teachers and students, do performance-based
learning activities, enhance one’s skills, and learn new knowledge and values despite of crisis
nowadays. Numerous countries quickly adopted new methods of learning such as E-learning
and Blended learning since the pandemic started and literacy rates have been also improved
worldwide. Furthermore, it demands students for more flexible and general skills which help us
to enhance our productivity and responsible citizens in our society to prepare us in the real
world. However, there are still some countries that have no access to quality education, there’s
still a huge gap between rural-urban in access to educational opportunities. Personally, foreign
aid should prioritize impoverished countries to support schools to deliver the best possible
experience for their students and to advance life-long learning opportunities as well. In
conclusion, globalization in the educational field constantly evolving. There are more further
research and evaluation in this field for the development of future educators around the world to
have effective learning technologies to help them thrive and achieve their future goals.
