Third, the development trend of higher education in the world and how we should deal with experts and scholars at home and abroad who participate in the forum. The most talked about, insightful and enthusiastic topic is the development trend of higher education and the correct countermeasures. 1. About the trend of internationalization. Economic globalization will inevitably lead to the internationalization of education, mainly higher education, which is almost the unanimous consensus of experts and scholars attending the meeting. What is the internationalization of education? Although the understanding is different, the main meaning is similar. A typical view, such as Yang Deguang's point of view, "the so-called internationalization of higher education means strengthening international exchanges and cooperation in higher education;" Actively open the domestic education market to all countries, make full use of the international education market, and adapt the content and methods of education to the needs of international exchanges and development; It is necessary to cultivate talents with international awareness, international communication skills and international competitiveness. " Some scholars also believe that "internationalization" is not equal to "globalization", which highlights a tendency of integration and integration, and "internationalization" is based on the national conditions and cultural diversity of nation-states and national interests. "Most scholars believe that the internationalization of higher education is an inevitable product of the process of economic globalization and an irreversible development trend; Economic globalization is the material basis of internationalization of higher education, which requires higher education to strengthen international exchanges, cultivate high-quality talents to adapt to globalization and develop international education industry. In addition to economic factors, there are many related factors such as political struggle, national strength competition, cultural and ideological competition, and the development of higher education itself. While the internationalization of higher education shares educational resources, educational market, human resources and cultural resources, there are also sharp monopoly and unfair competition of educational resources, the division between educational convergence and civilization divergence, and the contradiction between internationalization and nationalization. Higher education should not only accelerate the process of internationalization, but also proceed from the reality of China, adhere to the socialist orientation and national education policy, and adhere to and develop its own national characteristics. In this regard, Jiang Zuobin, director of Hunan Education Department, put forward and discussed the educational concept of "international integration". In his view, "the international integration of higher education refers to the process and result that higher education in all countries in the world forms a whole through mutual exchange, mutual absorption, mutual reference and interaction." "He believes that integration mainly includes three meanings: first, openness; The second is interaction; The third is innovation. He believes that "only based on our own country, facing the world and going international, can this integration develop healthily and be realized." Professor Wu, president of Tongji University, believes that "internationalization is different from globalization, which highlights the convergence of integration, while internationalization emphasizes the premise of retaining differences between nations." Hu, president of Central South University, started from the reality of running the merged Central South University, taking into account the economic globalization and the mission of the university, and put forward the idea of "harmony without difference". 2. About education market and education industrialization. Does education have an industrial attribute? In the general exchange speeches and many papers in the forum, there are more positive discussions on this. Xu Yunzhao, Assistant Governor of Hunan Province, said: "With the promotion of economic globalization, education in various countries has been rapidly pushed to the international market, and education has gradually become a profitable industry from a purely consumer public utility. Obviously, an increasingly prosperous and active international education market has been formed and is developing. China can't escape, let alone give up this growing education market. Zhang, director of the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission, believes that education will surely become a huge service industry and an indispensable service industry for everyone. However, from the perspective of economic globalization, we must follow the multi-level principle of serving all kinds of people and departments in society, the operating rules of industries such as responsibility, benefit and competition, establish a reasonable economic structure, and ensure sustainable development. In the group discussion, some people think that education has industrial attributes, but it cannot be industrialized; Some people think that education is mainly a public welfare undertaking and it is harmful to regard education as an industry; Others think that education and running schools should be separated. Running a school is a form of implementing education and cannot be equated. Education is not an industry, and it has no industrial attribute. However, running a school should be operated according to certain industrial rules, which has certain industrial nature. 3. On the popularization and sustainable development of higher education. In the papers submitted to the forum, the main arguments are as follows: the popularization of higher education is the trend of world development and progress, which has been accelerated by economic globalization, the rise of knowledge economy and the fierce competition of national strength, and has become a national policy or a goal to be achieved in most countries; Popularization of higher education is an important strategy to deal with economic globalization. Without the popularization of higher education, we can't meet the challenges brought by economic globalization. Economic globalization is the material basis for the popularization of higher education, which provides an excellent opportunity for the development of higher education. China has accelerated the popularization of higher education, but there is still a big gap compared with developed countries. We should not only keep a fast pace, but also seek truth from facts and moderately advance according to the national conditions and economic growth rate. Four. Humanities, Social Sciences and Natural Sciences Zhang Qizhi, former president of Northwest University and now a professor in Tsinghua University, believes that "economic globalization has raised two problems for China's higher education": first, how should China's higher education treat its own national history and culture under the challenge of western culture; Second, economic globalization shows that the information age dominated by knowledge economy is coming to us, and how to deepen science and technology education in Chinese universities. In his view, liberal arts education should be the foundation, guidance and guarantee of comprehensive quality education, and humanities, social sciences and natural sciences should penetrate and blend with each other. In particular, he pointed out that if there is only the development of science and technology without the infiltration and cooperation of social ethics or scientific ethics, science and technology may endanger human beings and society under certain conditions. Science and technology alone is not enough, but also the humanistic spirit that embodies the correct value orientation as the support of science and technology, so that science and technology can become the gospel of the people, not the poison that harms mankind. Professor Ji Baocheng, president of China Renmin University, believes that "humanities and social science education is as important as natural science education". He pointed out: without the application and support of humanities and social science knowledge and social technology, cooperative labor in modern mass production is almost impossible; Humanities and social sciences, like natural science and technology, are decisive factors in the formation of social productive forces; The division between natural science and humanities and social sciences is only the division of disciplines in the field of knowledge, not the division of practice; Although they have obvious differences in research objects and research methods, there is no difference in their objectivity and scientificity based on facts, laws and practices.
