The important landmarks in this timeline are the debates about government’s responsibility towards the pro- 229 motion of education and contestations among Orientalists, Anglicists and Missionary groups about the content and scope of such education. There has been a lot of discussion about the influence of policy statements such as Macaulay’s minute on education of 1835 and Wood’s dispatch of 1854. However, comparatively little emphasis has been placed on the ideological basis of these educational policies―especially through the medium of textbooks.2 Some notable exceptions are the works of Gauri Viswanathan (1998), Sanjay Seth (2007) and Krishna Kumar (2005). Vish- wanathan’s seminal work has shown how the reading of English liter- ary texts in schools was meant to promote a certain rational worldview conducive to the acceptance of Christian values and benevolence of British rule. Seth’s nuanced study aims at showing the pedagogical processes of colonial education as a site of colonial governmentality and disciplinary regime aimed at producing desirable subjectivities.

AMMA Name of the student: ………………………………………………………………………………………. Class: …………………………………..

Whereas, it would take countless trips up and down a stony hillside in order to wear away a trail. In the same way, a child’s character can easily be moulded. Children need loving care, but at the same time we should not forget to discipline them. Faith in God should be instilled in them as well as love for the entire creation. ■ AMMA Amrita International Vidyalayam, Bengaluru Page 2 Introduction Mata Amritanandamayi Math has a national network of 65 value based schools all over India.

  • 'International Education' in US Public Schools
    Globalisation, Societies and Education Vol. 9, Nos. 3Á4, SeptemberÁNovember 2011, 487Á501 ‘International education’ in US public schools Walter C. Parker* College of Education, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA (Received 8 June 2009; final version received 12 October 2009) This study focuses on the recent adoption of ‘international education’ (IE) by US public schools. Theoretically, it conceptualises this phenomenon as a social movement and a dynamic arena of knowledge construction and contestation. Methodologically, it combines fieldwork, interviews and critical discourse analysis. The central finding is that multiple meanings are circulating on an asymmetrical field: a discourse of national security dominates the ‘IE’ movement but competing discourses (global perspective, cosmopolitanism, international student body) are found closer to the ground of school practice. Keywords: international education; global education; national security education; global perspective; cosmopolitanism; student body; discourse Introduction In academic, popular and professional settings in the United States today, the phrases ‘our global economy’, ‘our increasingly interconnected world’ and ‘global citizens’ are uttered with ease and abandon. Audiences nod their heads knowingly. Furthermore, a number of public schools across the country are adopting something called international education (IE). Some are adding the name ‘international’ to their names Á Abraham Lincoln Elementary School becomes Abraham Lincoln International Elementary School. Prizes are given to exemplary ‘international’ schools by private foundations, and an annual IE Week is co-sponsored by the federal Departments of State and Education. National and state coalitions have been formed to advance the movement, and themed issues of journals are devoted to the topic. I ask: ‘What does it mean? What curriculum work is the movement doing and what forms is it taking?’ Downloaded by [Walter C.
