Global changes in culture deeply affect educational policies,

and make use of the cultural resources that are in their
classrooms. - Coatsworth, 2004
ECONOMIC ISSUES ON GLOBALIZATION Globalization brings about
opportunities for education particularly in the ways that new
technologies can be put to work to improve both the quality and

very destabilizing, both from an economic and a political point of
view. - Bloom, 2002
