The 2nd International Advisory Committee (IAC) Meeting of the International Centre for Higher Education Innovation under the auspices of UNESCO (UNESCO-ICHEI) was moderated by Prof. Freddy Boey, Chair of the IAC and Senior Vice President of the National University of Singapore.
Opinions from Experts:
Prof. Lim Cher Ping, Chair Professor from the Education University of Hong Kong and Visiting Professor of the Centre for Higher Education Research of Southern University of Science and Technology: developing countries could leapfrog the phase of experimentation based on the promising practices, lessons learned, and evidences of impact on access and quality of the higher education sector in the developed countries.
Dr. TANG Qian, former Assistant Director General for Education of UNESCO: ICHEI has done abundant work in ICT application in higher education and the work should be publicized. ICHEI could compile bi-weekly reports to share its work in the UNESCO community to expand its influence both in China and abroad.
Prof. Boey: ICHEI should constantly expand its areas of work, by integrating resources from the academia and the business circle, actively explore new patterns of project implementation and talent cultivation.
Prof. ZHAO Jianhua, Senior Specialist of ICHEI: ICHEI plans to utilize the online course management platforms to allocate and distribute the courses which are most wanted by the partner universities, to conduct online diploma education, and practically and effectively address the problems suffered by the partner universities such as inadequate faculty resources, a lack of education resources and underdevelopment of higher education.
IAC members: The International Institute on Online Education (IIOE) should achieve beyond what MOOC platforms have achieved. ICHEI should consider what exactly quality online resources are, determine the goals of IIOE and relevant indicators.
