The impact of globalisation on education has seen advanced developments of communication and technology in learning networks around the globe collaborating ideas and knowledge with other countries. Globalisation has changed the roles of students and teachers by becoming an information based society (Chinnammai, 2005). Students are encouraged to source their own information and give an independent opinion on how the world operates in different circumstances. Globalisation affects the impact on cultures, quality of education, the environment, economics, and the health of societies. Students gain an understanding of other people, various cultures and the countries’ circumstances affecting their education. The curriculum provides an opportunity for students to research different societies and compare to their own society. Students are exposed to different social justices that affect education around the globe (Bruniges, 2005). Students gain the potential to obtain and use information to establish the importance in the process of globalisation and construct their own knowledge by developing skills in critical thinking. Traditional, social and economic factors are fading, therefore making powerful countries less powerful by making the world more the same (Bartlett and Burton, 2012). Education systems can be compared using online testing such as NAPLAN, where students in Australia are tested on written, spelling, grammar, numeracy and reading skills. The numeracy and literacy test skills are measured to establish each student’s strengths and weaknesses to determine whether the school is meeting the curriculum requirements. Teachers, students and parents are able to compare test results to determine where additional help is required or to further develop on the child’s skills. Australian schools are
