#femlead: Bridging the Global Divide in Higher Ed

#femlead chat 3/13/12; topic: Bridging the Global Divide in Higher Education; moderator: @anamariadutceac

  1. So let us start now the 2nd #femlead chat on the global divide in #highered. Welcome everyone! #femlead
  2. I hope that we can have an interesting discussion about where female leadership in #highered can help bridge the global divide. #femlead
  3. @anamariadutceac #femlead the daylight savings time confusion just served as an excellent example of the problem, no? ;)
  4. We can hold the discussion a bit longer, so North Americans can take part in the beginning and the Europeans + world jump in later #femlead
  5. @anamariadutceac Do you think women have a better chance of improving the global divide? #femlead
  6. @ejlp yes indeed. The first global difference is physical. Plus the time zones... #femlead
  7. @ejlp @anamariadutceac #femlead I think you are right - we all see the world from where we sit and type ;)
  8. RT @mary_churchill: @anamariadutceac Do you think women have a better chance of improving the global divide? #femlead
  9. @mary_churchill I think that there is a certain solidarity of female leaders in general than can help bridge North-South divide #femlead
  10. another issue is lack of knowledge of how different other countries' HE systems are #femlead
  11. The question is the global divide in highered cultural, technological, economic? Where do we start? #femlead
  12. @anamariadutceac Do you think this solidarity is void of competition or has a different element of competition? #femlead
  13. RT @jovanevery: another issue is lack of knowledge of how different other countries HE systems are #femlead
  14. @jovanevery There are certain models that are applied in #globalhighered. For example the for-profit, American one. #femlead
  15. @anamariadutceac #femlead think a primary distinction is the varied understanding of higher ed as a right or a privilege.
  16. @mary_churchill As long as there are limited resources, there will be competition, but it may also open for global cooperation. #femlead
