The Society’s members include more than 2000 academics, practitioners, and students from around the world. Their professional work is built on cross-disciplinary interests and expertise as historians, sociologists, economists, psychologists, anthropologists, and educators. The Society also includes approximately 1000 institutional members, primarily academic libraries and international organizations. Over the last six decades, the activities of the Society’s members have strengthened the theoretical basis of comparative studies and increasingly applied those understandings to policy and implementation issues in developing countries and cross-cultural settings. The membership has increased global understanding and public awareness of education issues, and has informed both domestic and international education policy debate. The Society works in collaboration with other international and comparative education organizations to advance the field and its objectives. The principal Society vehicles for member activities are: •The Comparative Education Review—a professional, refereed journal published quarterly (February, May, August and November) by the University of Chicago Press •The CIES Newsletter—an information document produced by the CIES Secretariat containing news updates, announcements, committee reports and editorials •The CIES Website—a virtual community containing conference rooms, private real time written and voice chats, discussion boards, online newsletter, Edupress, documents retrieval and other web services •The CIES Annual Conference—a gathering of Society members and interested public usually held in March is devoted to scholarly and practical exchange, debate and networking. • Standing and Ad Hoc Committees—appointed and voluntary groups focused on specific professional interests of the Society, strengthening its voice in policy and intellectual debate, liaising with counterpart organizations, and ensuring full and equal representation to its diverse membership As a registered non-profit [501(c)3] organization in the United States, the Comparative and International Education Society supports the activities of its members to: 1.Promote understanding of the many roles that education plays the shaping and perpetuation of cultures, the development of nations, and influencing the lives of individuals 2. Improve opportunities for the citizens of the world by fostering an understanding of how education policies and programs enhance social and economic development 3. Increase cross-cultural and cross-national understanding through educational processes and by the study and critique of educational theories, policies and practices that affect individual and social well-being CIES PRESIDENTS 2015 N’Dri T.

I congratulate the team led by President-Elect Mark Bray for diligently managing the tremendous organization of the conference. The theme, “Six Decades of Comparative and International Education: Taking Stock and Looking Forward,” appropriately calls for critical and forward-looking reflection. You will have the opportunity to actively participate in lectures, paper presentations and workshops. As we celebrate CIES’ 60th anniversary, we acknowledge the founders and other early members for their vision in laying the foundation of the Society that, six decades later, continues to thrive with different generations. From its founding in 1956 as the world’s first comparative and international organization, CIES has grown in size and complexity, as reflected by eight standing committees among which Gender and Education Committee, New Scholars Committee and Under-represented Racial, Ethnic and Ability Groups (UREAG) have endeavored to respond to the needs of a diverse membership. The Society’s journal, Comparative Education Review (CER), has maintained its rigor and quality and continues to grow in the quantity of submissions. From the original 6 Special Interest Groups (SIGs) launched during the 50th anniversary celebration of CIES, the geographic and thematic SIGs have reached a total of 29, as the 2016 conference celebrates the first decade of their existence. The number and substantive presence of the practitioners has also increased. This evolution of our Society reflects the quest for internal spaces to critically engage the education systems and processes on the global scale from diverse perspectives. Education for All (EFA) and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) which also emphasized the global commitment to “Achieve Universal Primary Education” expired in 2015. However, according to UNESCO Policy Paper 22 dated July 2015 “the global number of out-of-school children of primary school age rose by 2.4 million between 2010 and 2013, reaching a total of more than 59 million,” most of whom were girls. Furthermore, poor quality, inadequate relevance and external efficiency, and functional illiteracy persist. Climate change and new patterns of open and latent conflicts and their impacts across the globe highlight the reality of our common humanity and destiny. The United Nations has adopted the new 17 Sustainable Development Goals. We are challenged to attune our scholarly and practical leadership and contributions to critical knowledge in the search for solutions. Processes are underway for the revision of our Constitution and Bylaws, the establishment of a new standing committee on ethics and professional conduct to guide us in our endeavors everywhere as CIES members, and discussions on how to best support and optimize the contributions of the current and future SIGs. The State of the Society meeting offers an opportunity to be more informed more about the Board’s activities and new initiatives. It will take place on Wednesday, March 9, at 6:30pm–7:45pm in Pavilion Ballroom C (North Tower). I encourage you to actively participate in our forward-looking deliberations. With kindest regards, N’Dri T. Assié-Lumumba President WELCOME MESSAGE FROM THE CIES PRESIDENT-ELECT The 2016 CIES conference has a distinctive focus as we celebrate our 60th anniversary. The 1950s were an era of Cold War geopolitics, typewriters, and international travel only for the privileged few. Our 60th annual conference will consider how the Society and the field have evolved during the decades, and where we are (and/or should be) going in terms of themes, methods, relationships, and much more. CIES conferences always demand enormous planning and coordination. Like its predecessors, this one has been two years in the making with inputs from the CIES Board and Secretariat, the planning and advisory committees, SIGs, and multiple sub-groups. I especially thank Carly Manion from the University of Toronto (UT) and Nutsa Kobakhidze from the University of Hong Kong (HKU) for their outstanding service and commitment. We have greatly benefited from Carly’s experience of organizing the 2014 Toronto conference, and Nutsa has matched Carly in extraordinary dedication, proactiveness, responsiveness and attention to detail. For the conference site, we sought a West Coast venue to balance the locations of recent conferences on the Eastern side of North America. Vancouver rapidly emerged as the obvious choice with its outstanding infrastructure and natural beauty. An additional benefit has been the attraction of even greater participation than usual from Asian locations on the other side of the Pacific. Within Vancouver, we enjoy partnership with the University of British Columbia (UBC) led by CIES Board Member Ali Abdi. A team of UBC student volunteers has matched a team of HKU student volunteers working on multiple details under the direction of Carly, Nutsa and myself. Ali Abdi has also helped us to liaise with Jo-Ann Archibald, Associate Dean for Indigenous Education at UBC, for recognition during our opening ceremony that the conference is held on unceded land. Similarly, I much appreciate the liaison with Kumari Beck of Simon Fraser University (SFU), who is President of the Comparative and International Education Society of Canada (CIESC). As conference organizers, we are mindful that this event for our US-based CIES is being held in Canada, and we are glad to have found ways to synergize with the CIESC for mutual enhancement. On a further dimension, I thank my own University for great support. This includes travel grants approved by the Dean and Associate Deans for students and faculty, sponsorship for the opening reception, and advice and practical guidance from the many colleagues who are longstanding CIES members. Zhang Wei, Secretary of our Comparative Education Research Centre (CERC) has matched Nutsa Kobakhidze in dedication. I encourage you during the coming days to celebrate with our 60th anniversary theme: ‘Taking Stock and Looking Forward’. Within each section and sub-theme of the conference, you may choose different benchmarks for taking stock rather than the full 60 years; but do take this opportunity to consider where we have been, where we are going, and how we will get there. With the vision and long-demonstrated commitment of so many people and groups, we will then take our Society forward with further contributions and innovation during the decades to come. Mark Bray CIES President-Elect The University of Hong Kong #CIES2016 7 WELCOME MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN OF THE FACULTY OF EDUCATION, UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG I am delighted at the role that the University of Hong Kong (HKU) is playing in this year’s CIES conference – which indeed is a particularly special one since it is the Society’s 60th anniversary. Comparative education has long been a major strength in our HKU team, and each year a significant number of colleagues have participated in CIES conferences. Our role is of course especially prominent this year, because Mark Bray is the Society’s President-Elect. We are delighted to support him in this role, seeing it as part of the global leadership and service of the HKU team. Several of our HKU colleagues have also played leadership roles in the World Council of Comparative Education Societies (WCCES), the Comparative Education Society of Hong Kong (CESHK) and the Comparative Education Society of Asia (CESA). The CIES is, of course, much older and larger than the CESHK and CESA, and we are proud to be able to play a leadership role in this US-based body, which is itself truly international, as evidenced by the fact that this conference is being held in Canada and has outstanding global participation. Our Faculty commonly hosts institutional receptions at CIES and similar conferences to facilitate networking and to maintain links with alumni and others. For this special CIES conference in Vancouver, the Faculty is pleased to contribute sponsorship for the opening reception for the whole conference. Please accept this contribution as our indication of the esteem with which we hold the CIES and its role. I and other colleagues from the Faculty much look forward to meeting you, not only during this opening reception but also as the conference progresses. And together we greatly look forward to partnering in the ongoing development of comparative and international education in the decades ahead.

Kneller Lecture: Why Comparative and International Education? Reflections on the Conflation of Names 9:45am – 11:15am | Grand Ballroom BC (North Tower) Chair:Desmond Odugu, Lake Forest College, Illinois Presenter: Erwin H. Epstein Loyola University Chicago The proliferation of titles for coursework, programs and associations in our field is seemingly limitless. A student entering study in comparative education, international education, multicultural education, or any of the other related subjects confronts a bewildering array of names that often stand for same field. In coursework, students are faced with either a comparative education in chaotic relationship with international education or a unitary field without formal association with kindred fields. This Kneller lecture addresses how the very name of the Comparative and International Education Society has raised uncertainty about the nature of the field. Erwin H. Epstein is Professor Emeritus at Loyola University Chicago. He earned a BA with honors and distinction in Philosophy from the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana; an MAT in Social Sciences from the University of Chicago; and a PhD in Comparative Education also from the University of Chicago. He has been a member of CIES since 1961, and served as an officer on the CIES Board of Directors for 20 years: four years in the presidential cycle (Vice President, President-elect, President, and Past President), two five-year terms as editor of the Comparative Education Review, and two three-year terms as Historian. As CER editor, he edited 40 issues - more than any of his predecessors. He is a CIES Honorary Fellow. He has also been President of the World Council of Comparative Education Societies (WCCES) (1980-83). At Loyola, Epstein founded and directed the Center for Comparative Education (now directed by his successor, Noah W. Sobe); the Comparative and International Graduate Students Association; and, together with Bruce Collett, the Comparative and International Education Course Outline Project (CIECAP). Prior to his taking a position at Loyola, he was Director of the University Center for International Studies at The Ohio State University. Professor Epstein was born and raised on the west side of Chicago. He and his wife, Barbara, met as teenagers and will soon celebrate 55 years of marriage. They have three married sons, all lawyers married to lawyers, and nine very lovable grandchildren. The full text of the Kneller Lecture will become available in a book co-edited by Patricia Kubow and Allison Blosser (co-chairs of the CIES Teaching Comparative Education SIG). The book will be entitled Teaching Comparative Education: Trends and Issues Informing Practice, Oxford: Symposium. PLENARY AND SPECIAL SESSIONS Monday, March 7 (Continued) Taking stock of international educational research and planning after 50 years: Reflections on C.E. Beeby’s The Quality of Education in Developing Countries, Harvard University Press, 1966 3:00pm – 4:30pm | Grand Ballroom BC (North Tower) Moderator: Ward Heneveld, retired education planner and former Education Program Officer at the Aga Khan Foundation, William & Flora Hewlett Foundation, and World Bank Presenters: Beatrice Avalos, Center for Advanced Research, University of Chile Martial Dembélé, Faculty of Education, University of Montreal, Canada Moses Oketch, UCL Institute of Education, University College London Sheldon Shaeffer, former chief of UNICEF’s Global Education Program and Director of UNESCO’s Asia and Pacific Regional Bureau for Education National education systems around the world are now assessed on how much children learn. It is no longer enough to think of quality only in terms of buildings, textbooks, materials, teachers and curriculum. There are many signs that learning now defines education quality: the increased concern for successful early learning to prevent later failure, the growth of testing, a rich research base on what school conditions contribute the most to learning, individualization of instruction to maximize each learner’s outcomes, and, of course, the inclusion of a “quality education” goal among the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this environment definitive answers to at least four important questions remain elusive: • What definition of the quality of education is most useful for guiding education development? • What characteristics of schools contribute the most to student learning? • How can econometricians and pedagogues integrate their different frameworks to improve classroom effectiveness and schools’ contributions to economic productivity? • How can experienced people in school systems and communities make effective use of ideas, methods, and resources provided by international/external educators who may not understand the local context? Fifty years ago, C.E. Beeby’s The Quality of Education in Developing Countries identified the issues raised by these questions as central to educational planning in newly-independent countries. Beeby’s credentials for doing so were considerable. For many years he had been the manager of New Zealand’s education system which included the “developing countries” of Western Samoa and the Cook Islands. From 1946 he was a main contributor to UNESCO’s efforts to help newly independent countries develop their education systems. Beeby participated in the foundation of UNESCO’s International Institute for Educational Planning (IIEP), and established the IIEP’s Fundamentals of Educational Planning series which today includes 97 titles. He was also a thoughtful mentor for many people in the first generation of researchers and planners who worked to improve education in developing countries. Two members of this panel owe much of their approach to education development to working with Beeby in Indonesia in the 1970s. The panel’s goal is to motivate the present community of comparative and international educators to strengthen the quest for contemporary responses to the issues that Beeby identified and began to answer 50 years ago. Each member of the panel will summarize how Beeby defined one of the issues, trace how that issue has been addressed over the years, describe current practice, and suggest possible areas of thought, investigation, and discussion for the future. An informal follow-up discussion is offered on Wednesday, March 9, 11.30am – 1.00pm in Junior Ballroom A (North Tower) so that interested CIES members and others who knew Beeby can discuss the quality of education today in more depth with Beeby’s ideas as a reference point. #CIES2016 11 PLENARY AND SPECIAL SESSIONS Monday, March 7 (Continued) Opening Ceremony 6:30pm – 8:00pm | Grand Ballroom (North Tower) • Opening Remarks – Mark Bray, CIES President-Elect • Aboriginal Welcome and Land Recognition – Bob Baker, Squamish First Nation and the Eagle Song Dancers • Welcoming Remarks – N’Dri T. Assié-Lumumba, CIES President • Welcoming Remarks – Stephen Andrews, Dean of Faculty of Education, The University of Hong Kong • Welcoming remarks – Kumari Beck, President of the CIESC • World Première of Video Comparatively Speaking II – Gita Steiner-Khamsi, Teachers College, Columbia University • Conclusion – Mark Bray, CIES President-Elect Opening Reception (Sponsored by The University of Hong Kong: Faculty of Education 8:00pm – 9:00pm | Pavilion and Junior Ballroom (North Tower) PLENARY AND SPECIAL SESSIONS Tuesday, March 8 CIES History Book Session 9:45am – 11:15am | Grand Ballroom BC (North Tower) For this 60th anniversary conference, we are delighted to give every registrant a free copy (in paper or electronic format, according to choice) of the book Crafting a Global Field: Six Decades of the Comparative and International Education Society. The book has been edited by Erwin H. Epstein, who has been a CIES member since 1961, was CIES President in 1981/82, for 10 years was Editor of the Comparative Education Review, and served for six years as CIES Historian. The book will be launched on Tuesday, March 8, 9:45am – 11:15am in the Grand Ballroom BC (North Tower). Following introductory remarks, individual authors will be located at tables around the room, with audience members encouraged to move around as they wish, learning more about the different chapters, asking questions and engaging in dialogue about the many topics in the volume. The editor and authors have worked together for a book of histories, not the book of history. Each of us has our own history within the Society and the field, and everybody is encouraged to reflect on their own perspectives and aspirations. Equally, CIES members are encouraged to undertake their own explorations of the past decades, and to reach interpretations which may diverge from those of the authors of this book and thereby add plurality to the rich tapestry of our CIES history. At the time of the 50th CIES anniversary in 2006, Gita Steiner-Khamsi (CIES President 2009/10) and her associates from Teachers College, Columbia University produced a video entitled Comparatively Speaking: An Oral History of the First 50 Years of the Comparative and International Education Society. It can be downloaded from the main CIES website www.cies.us. Gita Steiner-Khamsi and team interviewed as many past-presidents as were available, together with other significant people, thereby producing a visual account of the Society’s history. For this 60th anniversary, Gita Steiner-Khamsi has again mobilized a team and in particular worked with Hua-Chu Yen and Sheila Matsuda for an update. She has arranged for interviews of all past presidents since the 50th anniversary and a few active conference participants, and woven their remarks into a narrative of the last decade. The video, Comparatively Speaking II, will be uploaded to the CIES website for viewing alongside the original one. The CIES is most grateful to Erwin Epstein and Gita Steiner-Khamsi for this leadership and for the ways in which they have enabled dimensions of the histories of our Society to be recorded for posterity. #CIES2016 13 PLENARY AND SPECIAL SESSIONS Tuesday, March 8 (Continued) CIES at 60: Taking Stock and Looking Forward Through The Eyes Of Our Women Leaders 9:45am-2:45pm | Pavilion Ballroom D (North Tower) – Two-Part Panel & Luncheon Symposium Co-Organized by: Indigenous Knowledge & The Academy SIG and the Gender & Education Committee For the first 20 years, CIES existed as an organization led exclusively by male presidents. It was not until 1976 that the organization elected the first female president of the association. Engaging with the CIES 2016 theme of “taking stock and looking forward”, the Indigenous Knowledge and the Academy SIG and the Gender and Education Committee will co-host a symposium devoted to the examination of six decades of Comparative and International Education as experienced through the eyes of the Society’s women presidents. As part of this 60th anniversary panel discussion, our distinguished guests will reflect on the changing place, nature and significance of gender, as well as other intersecting social categories, including race, ethnicity and class, in the context of CIES, as a professional organization and CIE as a field of inquiry and practice. Questions and topics to be addressed include: • What drew these past-presidents to the field of comparative and international education and what has sustained their interest in the field? • What they might tell their young(er) selves about their work and experiences in the field and in CIES now 20, 30 or 40 years later? • The shifting role(s) and statuses of women in CIES through the years. • The extent to which the inclusion of more women leaders has changed the society. • Past and present barriers/challenges, as well as opportunities for further organizational change in support of equity and inclusion • The ways that CIES can move forward by including multiple voices and recognizing multiple ways of knowing. • Women as leaders in international education. • The changing perception of gender in educational change over the past 60 years. All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you at this special 60th anniversary event.

Abdi University of British Columbia The terms contained in the phrase international development education could represent descriptive and analytical ambiguities that can, prima facie, seem to represent inter-nations or inter-group learning possibilities that aid human well-being. Indeed, the habitual way these terms are deployed is actually less clear and is usually conveyed via descriptively camouflaged and foggy analytical exhortations that hide the realities of imposed knowledge systems which are mainly western-centric and southern consumers destined. In factual terms, these a priori prescribed learning platforms have not hitherto lived up to any inter-nations or intergroup epistemic equities and have not led to mutually sharable and viable development realities that could improve the lives of people in so-called developing countries of the world. Based on these realities, this presentation problematizes the historically constructed notions of ‘international’ and ‘development education’ which, it is argued, still carry their original monocentric and epistemically exclusionist platforms that have contributed to the quasi-permanentization of current global knowledge and power differentials. From this, the paper discusses the possibilities to reconstruct newly inclusive knowledge and learning platforms and pragmatics for social well-being that should be textured by cognitive decolonization and praxical educational liberation. Ali A. Abdi is Professor of Education and Head of the Department of Educational Studies at the University of British Columbia. Previously, he was Professor of Education and Co-Director of the Centre for Global Citizenship Education and Research (CGCER) at the University of Alberta. He is a past President of the Comparative and International Education Society of Canada (CIESC) and is currently a member of the CIES Board of Directors. His areas of research and teaching include citizenship and human rights education, critical social and cultural foundations of education, multicentric philosophies and epistemologies of education, and decolonization studies in education. His co-edited/co-authored volumes include Educating for human rights and global citizenship; Decolonizing philosophies of education; Indigenous discourses on development in Africa; Education and the politics of difference; Educating for democratic consciousness; and Decolonizing global citizenship education. He is also the founding editor of the Journal of contemporary issues in education, and co-founding editor of Cultural and pedagogical Inquiry. PLENARY AND SPECIAL SESSIONS Wednesday, March 9 (Continued) State of the Society: CIES Membership Meeting 6:30pm – 7:45pm | Pavilion Ballroom C (North Tower) At this meeting, the CIES Board of Directors will present reports to members and receive comments.

The meeting will also highlight CIES’ first Fall Symposium, to be held at Arizona State University November 10-11, 2016 on the theme ‘The possibility and desirability of global learning metrics: Comparative perspectives on education, research, policy and practice’. And of course we will look forward to the 2017 annual conference on ‘Problematizing (in)equality: The promise of comparative and international education’, Atlanta, March 5-9, 2017. #CIES2016 19 PLENARY AND SPECIAL SESSIONS Thursday, March 10 Comparative and International Education as a Stand-alone Program or as an Integrated Approach? Experiences and Reflections by CIES 2016 Honorary Fellow Jack Schwille and a Panel of Discussants 1:15pm – 2:45pm | Grand Ballroom BC (North Tower) Chair: Angelyn Balodimas-Bartolomei, North Park University, USA Presenter: Jack Schwille Michigan State University, USA Discussants: Wangari Gichiru, Central Connecticut University, USA Maria Manzon, National Institute of Education, Singapore Since the foundation of the CIES, scholars have asserted the importance of comparative and international education (CIE) for teacher preparation and other programs. Experience demonstrates for example that CIE components can assist elementary and secondary teachers to: • • • • sharpen their focus; broaden their perspectives on their own societies and education systems; understand how transnational forces shape education systems; and develop skills to nurture their own students’ multicultural identities. Yet these objectives can be achieved in different ways. While many institutions offer CIE as a clearly identifiable strand, some universities have incorporated it within most or all components of the curriculum. For over 25 years, Michigan State University (MSU) has been a pioneer in promoting internationalism, especially within the College of Education. Focusing on its mission to improve practice through exemplary research, teaching, and service, the college has strived to integrate global perspectives and promote an international dimension across all aspects of education. According to CIES 2016 Honorary Fellow Jack Schwille, this “infusion approach” has substantially increased the numbers of international faculty and students at MSU while also bringing cross-cultural and international perspectives to K-12 students and teachers. Through an all-encompassing vision and an array of international initiatives that have included cross-national research, scholarship programs, and study abroad experiences, the college has bolstered the education systems of developing countries, fostered comparative research to improve U.S. schooling, and helped to internationalize American education. Despite the college’s success in fostering international engagement, Jack observes in a forthcoming MSU Press book that the integration-infusion approach remains a work in progress at MSU. Important factors in evolving strategies include the changing composition of faculty and graduate student bodies, advances in knowledge and technology, and a shifting financial picture. However, Jack remains convinced that at least in MSU the integration-infusion approach is better than the alternative of designated and specifically-labeled CIE strands. He points out that the MSU approach has provided new understandings of education and productive cross-disciplinary interactions, and has helped the college to become a renowned center of internationalism. The invited panel members will bring experiences and perspectives from their own institutions within and beyond the US to dialogue with Jack Schwille. They will reflect upon teaching CIE as a stand-alone program or through an integration-infusion approach in a range of undergraduate and graduate programs, and they will invite further inputs from members of the audience. HOSTED BY Education International Open Society Foundations Education Support Program CIES 2016 The 2016 CIES Annual Conference in Vancouver will present the second Cinematic Spaces of Education Festivalette.

The festivalette will also examine film on its own terms to explore the social aesthetics of moving images and for what it has to say about education. This year’s program includes screenings of the Chilean film Nostalgia for the Light, Bertuccelli’s School of Babel and The Second Mother by Brazilian director Anna Muylaert. Film screenings will take place daily throughout the conference with each screening cohosted by one of the Society’s Special Interest Groups (SIGs) and conclude with either an interactive Q&A session with a member of the production team or panel discussion convened by the SIG.

Unlike goals that seek to universalize access for education, for which consensus is strong, debates around learning metrics are considerably more contested. How can learning among children – and adults – be measured and compared across diverse contexts and systems? Which learning domains should be assessed and why? Is the development of a global learning metric possible and/or desirable? To address these pressing issues, Arizona State University’s Center for the Advanced Studies in Global Education (CASGE) and edXchange (MLFTCASU) are organizing the 1st CIES Fall Symposium, bringing together researchers, policymakers, and practitioners for focused intellectual and policy engagement around these critical topics. The Symposium will feature a mix of invited plenary sessions and parallel sessions. More information is coming soon!

You can see it in a child’s face, when the connection is made and the words come to life on the page. When a child learns to read, they are opening more than just a book— they’re opening a door to the world. And a child who can read becomes an adult whose possibilities are limitless. To make a difference in a child’s life, join the Global Reading Network.
