     Globalization has its impacts in our society. This can be positive and also negative. This process can be one of the most critical developments that affects the evolution of national economies. 

     In this lesson, we have discussed both the positive and negative effect of globalization on education.

    One of the positive impacts if globalization towards education is that it introduced new tools such as e-learning, distance education, overseas programmers and etc. This new tools are necessary especially today that we experience a global pandemic. Through this  the spread and quality of the knowledge increases and so as with the demand of higher education. 

     Moreover, privatizations of higher education is visible. This increases the quality of education. By this, we are also became aware of new methodologies in teaching-learning process such as online or virtual classes with the use of technology.

     Furthermore, global access to school from primary to university levels prepares stundents for multinational leadership roles. In education, the foundation of global stabilitynand multicultural awareness is being learned at early stages. This encourages exploration and experimentation for effective learning.

     On the other hand, there are also negative impacts that we can experience towards globalization. One of this is the technological gap between advanced and less developed countries. This is observable since we have different levels of technology, so we have this gap that may create problem. 

     There is also increased competitions that creates more stress and burden on learners as well as with the teachers. Besides, the need of teacher's physical presence is reduced since virtual classes is already available. And sometimes, misuse of advanced technology happens wherein they use it not for a good manner.

     We talked about the perspectives of globalization. There are three stances within the globalization theory, and this are the hyperglobalist, the skeptikal and the transformational that reflects disputes concerning to new global trends. This discussion highlights social, economic and political aspects that globalization theory deals with.

     The hyperglobalist perspective is an approach that sees globalization as a new epoch in human history. Hyperglobalism identifiy globalization in a positive way. This approach presents the stance in the globalization theory. In (Tickly, 2001, p. 153), it claims that the world has already entered a "truly global age" that legalizes the dominance of global capitalism. 

     Hyperglobalism perceives globalization as the one that creates new relationship within nations. This interconnects one region to another which creates unity. It is also said that globalization makes the world economy be controlled by the marketplace and also weakens the power of the government. It's also advances technology in a mass culture and makes economy as a whole wherein when one country rises, the other countries will also elevate.

     The skeptical perspective  on the other  hand is the opposite of the hyperglobalist perspective. In this, they see globalization with hesitations and they view global capitalism as a myth.

     Skepticalism distinguish globalization process as separated and a regionalized one. So as with the market, they don't see it as a single or one. They conceive that if one region or country can rise, others may not because they might not have the same capabilities like others. And they observe that it requires a strong nation to facilitate trade and regulate running of global economy. In addition, globalization makes migration a thing. For example, the OFWs choose to migrate in a more globalized economy because they think they can earn more. In this case, they see that globalization doesn't makes a region as one unit.

     Lastly, the transformationalist perspective  in which the flow of culture is not one way. In this, they perceive that there is no individual cause behind globalization, it is the phenomenon which progress slowly and the outcome is not detected. This doesn't bothers about the historical events or factors but concerns with the present. Additionally, the power of national government increases but their nature changes.
