This thesis compares and analyzes the dynamics between policy, knowledge and power of Myanmar's higher education development. The papers begins by exploring the dynamics during the Socialist Military Regime(1962~1988), the Collapse of Higher Education Era(1988~2010), Thein Sein's Reform Era(2010~2015) and the current Aung San Suu Kyi's Civilian Era(2015~Now). By highlighting recent dramatic policy changes, the article argues that the policy discourse on the subject of internationalization of higher education and the technocratization of education development policy by the current Civilian Government in its new policy discourse, that resulted in the active participation as well as the contributions of international donors has directly impacted on the policy dynamics around the Comprehensive Education Sector Review and the introduction of the National Education Strategic Plan 2016~2020. Further, by examining complex interaction between the current domestic education stakeholders and international donors in education sector in Myanmar, this thesis argues that the new analytical framework on the understanding of policy dynamics in developing countries goes beyond the national level. The paper argues that there needs to be broadening of the analytical framework towards the multidimensional analysis perspective that includes global, national as well as local level policy, knowledge and power dynamics in Myanmar's dynamically changing higher education sector.

The purpose of this case study is to examine and compare the basic characteristics of quality assurance systems of the 3 leading countries in international higher education: Australia, Canada, and the Netherlands. The comparative analysis of the three cases demonstrates that, taking a more commercial stance on the international education service market, quality assurance systems of the 3 countries aim at facilitating effective promotion of student recruitment and enhancing their national brand image as advanced knowledge society. Consequently, rules and regulations of their systems are concerned primarily with strengthening institutional capacities to educate international students effectively, and, ultimately, improving their learning experiences in the host countries. Compared to these foreign cases, the newly-adopted quality assurance system in Korea places too much emphasis on internationalization process itself, thereby neglecting evaluation of educational capabilities of higher education institutions. Further implications for improvement of the Korean International Education Quality Assurance System(IEQAS) are discussed.

The scientific technology developed rapidly and the internet became more popular, also, the world became interactive with one another and the word 'Global' became popular and built a new paradigm. As the development of the society, the ideal criteria for the competent student changed. Consequently, the attention for the globalized education increased. From the points of view of mathematical education, it became a important task to be prepared for international competitiveness for korean talented students. For theses reasons, this article analyzes the characteristics of IBDP and its textbook, which is an international official curriculum and one of the actualizing method for internalization Korean high school curriculum and text book, specifically, focusing on algebra part. Especially, Korean curriculum textbooks and the Mathematical Higher Level textbooks of IBDP was compared and analyzed. As a result, the depth and range of the content, standard level of the question, methods being used to explain the concept, type of questions as well as teaching - learning method were analyzed and in each chapter of the algebra we give meaningful result and proposed discussion.

This study intended to examine the English-Medium Instruction (EMI) policy in terms of developmental background and current situation in Chinese and Korean higher education institutions and to provide policy implications for each country. EMI policy in China and Korea shared common characteristics that the EMI courses in both countries were expanded through government leadership at the beginning in order to respond to internationalization since early 2000s. In terms of the differences, EMI policy in China aimed to improve educational quality and nurture bilingual talents while in Korea it primarily aimed to attract international students and internationalize universities. Although both governments took the lead in implementing the policy, universities in two nations responded differently. While the Chinese universities merely followed the government policy to expand EMI courses, its Korean counterparts had a more strong intention to increase EMI courses. Related policy implications were addressed.

현재 우리나라 대학원생 수는 약70개 대학에 6만여명에 달하여 학부학생에 대한 비율은 약 8%이다. 이와같은 대학원생의 양적확대는 질적 저하를 초래한다는 많은 우려도 있으나 아무튼 대학원 교육이 도약의 단계에 들어섰다는 것은 사실이다. 오늘날의 사회발전과 산업의 고도화를 담담하는데 필요한 고급인력, 특히 연구개발 부분의 국제 경쟁력 강화하기 위한 연구인력과 고등교육의 확충에 따른 교수를 비롯한 학자를 양성하여야 하는 대학원의 국가적 사명은 매우 크다. 그러나 문제는 오늘의 대학원 교육이 과연 국가가 필요로 하는 분야에서 기대하는 고급인력의 구실을 할 만큼 충분한 질적 수준에 도달하고 있느냐 하는 것이다. 교육에 임하고 있는 교수는 이러한 기대 역할을 수행하기에 미흡한 상태이며 해결하여야 할 과제가 허다하다는 사실을 누구도 부인할 수 없을 것이다. 그동안 우수한 많은 인재들이 국내 대학원보다 해외 유학의 길을 택하였고, 고급기술인력을 주로 해외에 의존하였다. 그러나 이제는 우리의 손으로 우리의 고급인력을 양성하여야 한다는 자각이 각 학문분야와 산업계에서 열도 높게 일고 있으며 이에 부응하는 대학교육의 질적 향상이 필연적 과제로 부각되고 있다. 이와 같은 시점에서 오늘날 우리 대학원이 안고 있는 문제점을 한정된 지면에 일일이 열거할 수 없으며 필자가 평소 느끼고 있던 몇가지 근본적인 점만을 기술하고자 한다.

This study seeks to investigate the mediating effect of career identity in the structural relationship between career anxiety, career stress, career identity, and career preparation behavior. Based on these results, we provide basic data for students' career guidance and career education. For this purpose, data were collected and analyzed targeting third-year commercial high school students preparing for their careers. As a result of the analysis, it was found that as career anxiety increases, students' career stress increases. However, career anxiety was found to have no direct effect on career identity and career preparation behavior. Second, career stress was found to have a significant impact on career identity and career preparation behavior. Third, the mediating effect of career identity was found to be high in the relationship between career stress and career preparation behavior. This shows that career stress increases actions for career preparation through career identity.

This study was performed in order to suggest the future model of Asian universities that could be used in the planning of the global competitive strategy. Futurologists forecasted the future of higher education using Harman Fan Scenario as like this. First, most current universities will be 'the satellite university' until 2015. Second, they also will replace 'the bookless university' until 2020. Third, they will be 'no calendar university' until 2025. And then they may be 'all have access university' until 2030. After 2030, futurologists prospected that almost universities based on off-line campus will be disappeared into the history. The analysis method of Harman fan scenario and applied scenarios were also used to "A study on the future scenario of Korean university". The predictive model and the alternative models were explored in a view point of students, enterprise, and government. Individuality with educational excellence are standardized for learner, profit and effectiveness are applied for enterpriser, and equality with welfare are adapted for national leader. Asian universities need to focus on bringing up the practical ability based on conscious and emotional education instead of knowledge based on memory. Also they need to enforce the specialized education that can create new jobs through convergence of interdisciplinary. Especially, Asian nations need to explore, to find the strengthen area of their universities compared with USA. And these area should be specialized. The convergency strategy between oriental medicine and informatics is a meaningful sample. Based on this point, a predicted with 3 alternative scenarios in a view point of equality were suggested for the future of Asian universities.

This research used content analysis to examine the research trends of two core journals from 2000 to 2009 in education. The analysis measured research subjects, research methods, research behaviors, numbers of author and co-authors' affiliations, and research funds. The results showed that research articles in educational administration and higher education have increased constantly, whereas research articles in other fields have decreased. Experimental research method was shown to be used widely along with documentary research and survey research method. Most researches were done by one author and each of them were affiliated to universities or research institutions. The research suggested practical educational research, comparative research on international issues and indexes, methodological elaboration, and use of various units of analysis for future studies.

Since the 2000s, the number of foreign students in Korea has increased considerably. In late 2010, the government's strategy to internationalize higher education will bring the number of foreign students to 140,000 as of 2019 and soon to 200,000 by 2023. As the number of foreign students increases, the happy life of foreign students in Korea has become a very important social issue at a time when the population is shrinking. Increasing the satisfaction level of foreign students living in Korea is a matter that should not be overlooked given that our society will face problems of globalization and population cliff in the future. Recently, the number of Vietnamese students studying in Korea has been on the rise, raising the need to pay attention to their happy study lives. In this study, I would like to suggest a plan for the happy life of Vietnamese students in Korea. To that end, 90 Vietnamese students in Korea were surveyed on their satisfaction with living, economy, welfare environment, university education, language education and overall studying abroad. Foreign students entering Korean society should also work together in terms of living, economy, welfare and education so that they can recognize themselves as a member of our society and live happily abroad.
