Introduction to Comparative Education Comparative Education is an interdisciplinary field within education studies that systematically examines and compares educational systems, policies, practices, and outcomes across different countries, cultures, or regions.

Different Generations of Students, including Generation Z to Generation Alpha , in Education  Introduction   In this blog post, I shall examine the six distinct generations of learners that have emerged throughout the last hundred years at a closer range. Each one of them arose from different historical, technological and educational development contexts. Looking at these six generations, we will then see how each of them interacted with and responded to the available learning environments and opportunities offered to them, from which there will be further understanding as regards this change in education that began with the start of the 20th century and continues through today.  Change in society is growing very fast because of rapid technological development, the fast-changing culture, and events within the international community.
