BENEFITS OF BORDERLESS
EDUCATION
• It is cheap to the students as they do not have to move to a new

country.
• It ensures that quality education is provided to all the students.
• It is easily accessible, as the internet is easily available in many
countries.
ONLINE TRAINING
Also know as computer based training (CBT),
distance learning, or e-learning.
Online Training is a form of instruction that takes place completely

on
the internet. It involves a variety of multi-media elements, including
graphics, audio, video, and web-links, which can be accessed
through
one’s internet browser
OFF-SHORE CAMPUSES
An overseas branch campus, is a franchised
operation that a tertiary or higher education
institution creates in order to expand its
operations beyond the borders of where it is
mainly based, often with the bidding of the
host country’s government.
Example:
80 Laureate International Universities in 28 countries, and
54 campuses of the SAE Institute in 26 countries
TECHNOLOGY-ASSISTED TEACHING
Refers to the use of the internet in the classroom
teaching.
Example:
Students watch TED talks, Khan Academy lessons,
Massive Online
Open Courses (MOOCs) and other Internet-based
lectures at home.
FRANCHISING OF CURRICULA
- is as basic as having your students pay for international

baccalaureate or as advance as paying for the intellectual
property rights of syllabuses and curriculums from the
world’s top schools
Example: Kumon, Aloha, Logiscool, etc.

VENDORS OF LEARNING MANAGEMENT
PLATFORMS OR PUBLISHERS OF
DIGITAL MATERIAL
Vendors and publisher were hired to search for
the most appropriate tools for the students
As Yoni Ryan himself says, borderless education costs a lot of money and
most universities cannot afford it if they do it on their own. By paying vendors
and publishers, schools will save much time, money, effort, and hardware in
searching for the most appropriate Internet tools for their students.
Examples of eBook Vendors are:

Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, Apple iBookstore, etc
VISION AND PHILOSOPHY
OF
Education is a continuous process and must enable one to
respond to social needs and improve one’s quality of life.
Education must be available both for the youth and adults, both
formally and informally. (Srisa-an, 2002)
-Continuous process meaning it is a lifelong learning ,it enhance our understanding of the world
around us, provide us with more and better opportunities and improve our quality of life
-As John Dewey said, education is the fundamental method of social progress and reform.
Those who get an education have higher incomes, have more opportunities in their lives, and tend to
be healthier. Societies benefit as well. Societies with high rates of education completion have lower
crime, better overall health, and civic involvement. Lack of access to education is considered the root of
poverty.
-example; now a days damo na ga enroll sa ALS

 In the present fast-changing learning society, high technology
becomes a means for producing the lifelong education required
To meet the lifelong education needs of present and future societies, new educational
systems and management must be developed and utilized. (nd ta dapat stagnant dahil lahat
ay nagbabago, wag magpapahuli)
 In the past, borderless education was only an ideal of long
distance education.
It however lacked concrete means for implementation because of the inefficient quality of
telecommunication systems, which are useful channels in knowledge and experience transfer
between teachers and learners.
 The traditional system or present educational system may be

considered as ‘limited education
Because of limited infrastructure (e.g., buildings, instructors, educational materials), the number of students
must be controlled. Normally, a system of examination or grade entry requirement is used as means of
selecting entrants. Learning must always take place in a classroom or at most with only supplementary field
practice.
 On the contrary, open education, distance education and borderless education, are the
forms of ‘expanded education’ which give everybody fair opportunity
With the use of high technology in information technology (IT), students do not have to attend courses in
classrooms. The major factor is IT, no matter what level of education is being considered as
‘educational media’.
Needs for Human Resources Development in a
Borderless World
To meet the challenges of a borderless community, the
graduates of schools and colleges must be able to work and live
in an environment that is increasingly becoming global
GLOBAL CITIZENS MUST HAVE GLOBAL COMPETENCIES
SUCH AS,
(1) ability to use international or regional language,
(2) knowledge and understanding of others,
(3) ability to use information technology/computers,
(4) possession of learning and management skills
and some degree of competence in various technical
fields, and
(5) knowledge and appreciation of global values
1. ability to use international or
regional language
The first competence necessary in the borderless world is language and communication. English
becomes a must for international communication. Regional language is also necessary for
communication across the borders in a region. One language is not enough; a second or third
language is needed.
One must be multilingual to function in

the borderless world. It is through language that one is able
to share ideas, literature and culture, beliefs, aspirations and
common tasks to be performed.
HOW LANGUAGE SKILLS CAN BE ENHANCED?
With actual contacts with

foreign students and professors, the practical applications
of the language skill will also be enhanced.
(2) knowledge and understanding of
others, of others are necessary
The knowledge and understanding
for transactions across the borders. One needs to know
one’s own strengths and weaknesses as well as those of
others. Knowledge and understanding of other cultures,
values, and ways of life are necessary for the graduates to
be able to live without biases and prejudices and to work
harmoniously together with respect and consideration for
others as well as tolerance for differences.
(3) ability to use information

technology/computers,
The competency to acquire, analyze and use information is urgently needed. With the geometric information
explosion, it is no longer possible for a teacher to be the sole provider of information to students. Instead, the
new teacher must guide the student in the collection, analysis and use of information. The whole world is now
the source of information not anymore only the teacher or the university library. Students and more so faculty
members need to use electronic mail and the Internet in pursuing their academic interests and careers. With
these tools one can work across the border and have quick access to the latest information. The professors are
now an education or learning facilitator rather than an instructor
(4) possession of learning and management skills and
some degree of competence in various technical fields,
A university graduate must have managerial skills.
Entrepreneurial spirit and management skills will give
individuals more freedom and alternatives in their careers
and make the world of work more challenging and
enjoyable.
(5) knowledge and appreciation of global

values
The last competence, that is, knowledge and appreciation
of global values, is very important for sustainable
development. Without them, there will be no social
development. Among the necessary global values are
respect for human rights, democracy and concern for the
environment. They have to be promoted and appreciated.
Every person must have high moral values and must be
ethical in everyday activities and work
Appreciation of common values would reduce conflicts
and differences and thus promote attainment of peace and
prosperity.
ACCESSIBILITY TO LEARNERS
Being borderless means promoting equity and providing education opportunity to as many learners as possible
A higher education for all means accessibility of programs to those without
previous degrees, those who want to obtain additional degrees, those who
want to change their field of specialization, those who want to enhance
experience without obtaining a degree or those who want to study just for
pleasure.
It is borderless in the sense that there will be no boundaries for the venue of
learning-it can be a classroom, the field, the place of work or even at home.
QUALITY KNOWLEDGE BASE
quality knowledge base is an important factor in the success of
borderless education. Accessibility to such a knowledge base can be
enhanced by development of appropriate delivery system as through
interactive electronic media.
Experiential learning
Curriculum development must be based on experiences of members of
society so that their actual needs could be served. The use of resource persons
or experts from the community, like from the industries and government
agencies, would allow the transfer of knowledge, information and real
experiences to the students

BORDERLESS EDUCATION IS
NOT A MAGIC PILL THAT WILL
CURE OF OUR EDUCATIONAL
DISEASES, BUT IF WE DON’T
SEE BEYOND OUR
GEOGRAPHICAL NOSES, WE
WILL STAMBLE AND FALL.
