As a result, curricula, classrooms and community rarely intersect, especially in the developing world. Ubuntu! Imagining a Humanist Education Globally is the theme of the 59th CIES conference in Washington, D.C, March 8-13, 2015. The substance of collective ethos captured in Ubuntu is shared across the African continent and beyond. The specific term was popularized by various authors including the novelist, scholar, and journalist Jordan Kush Ngubane in the 1950s and more recently by public figures such as Nelson Mandela articulating a society and world of inclusiveness and equality. This conference theme explores an imagined future where education is a moral enterprise that develops and shapes minds to embrace humanism that is inseparable from socio-economic equality. Humanism provides a lens that views the world as a complex whole, an interconnected and interdependent ecosystem of diverse humans, nature and the planet as a whole. The vision of humanist education is in harmony with Ubuntu, which inspires a multiplicity of worldviews, indigenous epistemologies and ideological schools of thought in a world that is inclusive while fostering autonomy and humanity. It is conceived to guide academics, policymakers and practitioners and learners in different locations. While education has been an instrument for reproducing certain inequalities as it may not encourage and enable people to struggle for social transformation, even carefully designed colonial education that was intended to subordinate colonized peoples in different parts of the world produced critical thinkers and activists who questioned and helped to topple formal colonial domination. More broadly, we should be able to an imagine education that is designed to promote values of mutually beneficial cooperation whereby even competition would mean striving toward achieving the greater good to enhance our shared humanity. To imagine an education fostering a future that reflects Ubuntu is to engage in a process of deconstruction of the prevailing modernist epistemologies that tend to separate the heart and mind. The re-imagined vision of education will be the regenerative space for positive social change. The 2015 conference offers an opportunity to reflect on and contribute to the exciting possibilities of an Ubuntu-inspired education, embodying a philosophical, pedagogical and curricula framework that is emancipatory, cultured, transformative, localized and empowering for all humanity and the globe. As a professional society on education in its comparative and international dimensions, CIES invites all participants including educators in general with a special call to researchers, policymakers, practitioners, representatives of international organizations, local and global non-governmental organizations and members of civil society to share their insights and experiences and offer forward-looking collective deliberations. We also urge participants to contribute to tackling theoretical, empirical, and practical questions in the critical examination of existing systems of learning and testing at the local and global levels, the limits as well as the possibilities of established quantitative and qualitative methods with careful consideration of indigenous epistemologies. Let Washington, D.C. in 2015 become the site where we reflect and rededicate ourselves to the search for new directions by engaging an Ubuntu-inspired education for humanity across the world. 5 Table of Contents Conference Information............................................................1 CIES 2015 Conference Planning Committee........................... 2 Student Volunteers............................................................. 3 Management and Vendors................................................. 3 CIES 2015 Unit Planners....................................................4 Conference Theme...................................................................5 CIES PRESIDENTS.................................................................7 About CIES...............................................................................7 Current CIES Leadership......................................................... 8 Board of Directors...............................................................8 Secretariat.......................................................................... 8 Comparative Education Review (CER) Journal Editors......8 Welcome Message...................................................................9-11 Exhibitors and Advertisers........................................................12 Sponsors / Contributors / Parnters...........................................13 Conference Theme Responses................................................14 2015 CIES Standing Committees.............................................16 Special Interest Groups............................................................17 CIES 2015 Speakers................................................................19 Committee Highlighted Sessions and Business Meetings........21 SIG Highlighted Sessions and Business Meetings.................. 25 Receptions, Performances and Other Events...........................28 Awards Ceremony.................................................................... 35, 39 Things to do in Washington, D.C. ............................................ 41 Sessions from All Academic.....................................................43 Participant Index from All Academic.........................................169 Country Index from All Academic.............................................201 Keyword Index from All Academic............................................209 Region Index from All Academic..............................................213 Index of General, Committee and SIG Submissions................217 Advertisements........................................................................ 219 IMAGINING A HUMANIST EDUCATION GLOBALLY 6 About CIES CIES Presidents The Comparative and International Education Society (CIES), Inc., was founded in 1956 to foster cross-cultural understanding, scholarship, academic achievement and societal development through the international study of educational ideas, systems, and practices. 2014 Karen Mundy 2013 Gilbert Valverde 2012 David Baker 2011 Ratna Ghosh 2010 Maria Teresa Tatto 2009 Gita Steiner-Khamsi 2008 Henry Levin 2007 Steven J.

Brickman 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. The official website is sponsored by the Comparative and International Education Society (CIES) Over the last four 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 three times a year (January, May and September) 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 of each year and which is devoted to scholarly and practical exchange, debate and networking. Also, the CIES Annual Regional Conferences usually held in November of each year. Standing and Ad Hoc Committees—appointed and voluntary groups focused on promoting 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 in the shaping and perpetuation of cultures, the development of nations, and in 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 7 Current CIES Leadership BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEMBERS OF THE BOARD (3 year terms) President Karen Mundy, Associate Dean of Research, Ontario Mariusz Galczynski (2015), Student Representative, President-Elect N’Dri T.

Sapp, CAE, Account Executive Nelly Flumo, Administrative Assistant Heather Seasholtz, CMP, Director of Meetings and Events Ashley Duffy, Jr. Meeting Planner Teresa Matozzo, Sponsorships and Exhibits 8 President’s Welcome Dear Friends and Colleagues: I am thrilled to welcome you to the 59th Annual Conference of the Comparative and International Education Society, and to the bustling and eclectic Washington, D.C., now my home away from home. Recognizing that organizing our annual general conference involves a huge amount of time and effort, I want to extend a warm thank you to the hard-working and talented team led by President-Elect, N’Dri Assie-Lumumba [Cornell University]. Beyond the core conference committee, we in the CIES Executive thank all of the volunteers in each of the SIGs and committees and to those student volunteers that make a conference of this scale and scope possible. More broadly, I want to thank all of you working as scholars, practitioners, and policymakers, for contributing to the continued vibrancy of our annual conference, which continues to grow in size every year! Despite the progress made globally towards quality education for all over the past 15 years, more work is required in terms of conceptualizing our goals and developing strategies for achieving them. The theme for this year’s conference, “Ubuntu! Imagining a Humanist Education Globally” is important and timely as we find ourselves in the midst of continued discussions and debates concerning education in the context of a new global development compact. Specifically, the conference theme calls attention to the moral imperatives associated with educational equality as a matter of global social justice. Recognizing our common humanity and interconnectedness, we are called upon to work together, as practitioners, academics and policymakers to share our knowledge, experiences and ideas for building a better world for all, with education as the foundation. The diversity of issues, perspectives and contexts represented in our constituency make CIES 2015 an ideal setting for cultivating a shared understanding and sense of purpose. With the spirit of Ubuntu in mind - I encourage you to reach out to, meet, listen and learn from each other and nurture the forms of dialogue and collaborative action that are needed to propel the field of CIE forward in the context of the post-2015 agenda. Best regards, Karen Mundy President 9 President-Elect’s Welcome Dear Colleagues, As President-Elect of the Comparative and International Education Society (CIES), it is my utmost pleasure to extend to you a heartfelt welcome. It has been a remarkable journey since the announcement of the theme “Ubuntu! Imagining a Humanist Education Globally.” With the dedication of an outstanding Cornell core planning team chaired by Dr. joan.Osa Oviawe, we have put together an enriching menu of activities to cater to both the heart and mind connecting three phases: pre-conference, conference and post-conference. Prior to the conference, I invited senior and emerging scholars and practitioners from around the world to write short critical commentaries on the theme. It is worth mentioning a Google hangout organized for the CIES New Scholars Committee, a T-shirt design contest with the winning design inspired by the philosophy of Ubuntu and Buckminster Fuller’s geodesic planetary projection that implies interconnectedness and equality of space. Hotel subsidy grants were provided to assist many graduate students and junior faculty and practitioners stay in the conference hotel. A mobile App has been introduced in the spirit of going green and to enable everyone navigate the conference seamlessly. On Sunday March 8, CIES will celebrate the International Women’s Day with Dr. Mae Jemison as keynote speaker. Following a record number of submissions and subsequent sessions, during the conference more than 2500 participants will share their cutting-edge research with the anticipation of vigorous debates. World-renowned scholars such as Professor Samir Amin will deliver thought-provoking lectures. Look out for the Committee and SIG Open House, a mini-film festival to screen documentaries and films on education from different countries, a “Running Girl” art exhibit inspired by the school girls who were kidnapped in Nigeria, a Career Expo, Speed Mentoring, $tart $mart (salary negotiation workshop), and the receptions. Enjoy the visits to the museums, monuments, and other sites including three remarkable K-12 schools. We hope you will find these events as engaging and fulfilling as it has been for us to plan, coordinate and organize. Our post-conference plans include publications, partly in peer-reviewed journals. We appreciate the collaborations with various CIES committees and SIGs, especially the Gender and Education Committee, Africa Special Interest Group, and organizations such as Open Society Foundations, Education International, American Association of University Professors, American Association of University Women, FHI 360, and a grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York. I want to express my special appreciations to Dr. joan.Osa Oviawe for her experience, commitment, and diligence. I thank also the members of the planning and advisory committees, other CIES and Cornell University colleagues and academic units especially the Africana Studies and Research Center and the Institute for African Development, and finally my family Tukumbi Lumumba-Kasongo, Disashi, Enongo, Lushima and Hero for the unfailing support. I wish you an intellectually enriching and transformative conference and a practically memorable and forward-looking experience. Best Wishes, N’Dri T. Assié-Lumumba President-Elect IMAGINING A HUMANIST EDUCATION GLOBALLY 10 President Skorton Welcome David J. Skorton President March 2015 Dear Conference Participant: As you gather in Washington, D.C. for the 59th annual conference of the Comparative and International Education Society (CIES), I send greetings from Cornell University, home institution of CIES President-elect N’Dri Assie-Lumumba. The conference theme, “Ubuntu! Imagining a Humanist Education Globally,” brings together ideas, worldviews and global best practices in comparative and international education and related fields and has inspired a record number of academic sessions, a rich and inclusive array of activities, and a call for an ubuntu-inspired education as a means toward the advancement of our common humanity. Since its inception in 1865, Cornell University has been international in scope and aspiration. Its activities to advance learning, discovery and public engagement are now carried out on a global scale, as indicated by Professor Assie-Lumumba’s own work in African and diaspora education, comparative and international education, social institutions, African social history, and the study of gender. I commend Professor Assie-Lumumba for her leadership in organizing this conference with the assistance of a university-based core team coordinated by visiting scholar Dr. joan-Osa Oviawe, who is serving as the conference planning chair, and I extend best wishes for a stimulating and productive conference.

He is a co-editor of the open access journal Reconsidering Development. He has been a CIES member since 2014. Design Statement: When we think of the world, we think of maps. Yet cartography is ultimately political: conventional ways of mapping the world have ascribed politics and mapped inequality onto the globe. The North has been divided from the South by the equator; the Mercator projection shrunk the large land masses of Africa and South America, while simultaneously growing North America and Europe. A centerless map, inspired by the philosophy of Ubuntu and Buckminster Fuller's geodesic planetary projection, views all of the continents as a contiguous land mass. Triangles segment the world, implying not only human interconnectedness, but also an equality of space.

These films and the genres they reflect demonstrate the significant potential that exists in film for comparative education scholars. A back-to-back panel discussion by scholars, activists, and film directors explores the potential of education in film to influence personal opinion, policy, and public debate about education. In Panel 1, Johannah Fahey, Tamasin Cave and Hugh McLean focus on aesthetics, political theory, and policy reflected through education in film. In Panel 2, Dieudo Hamadi, Miao Wang, and Mona Nicoara, all film directors, reflect on their own films about education and discuss different films that portray education in meaningful ways. And then, throughout the course of the conference, the festivalette features 9 screenings of powerful, award-winning, ubuntu-rich films. The filmmakers of Our School, Teachers: A Day in A Life, and National Exam in attendance for Q&A’s following their screenings.
