Globalisation and Academics
As renowned academicians put it, learning is a continuous activity and it has no limitation of age and sex. Learning or education is universal in character. If that is so, then academic activity should be global. With education being global, it ushers in an era of exchange of ideas and knowledge between experts who are spread over various parts of the globe.
Consolidation of the findings of these experts will bring in something which is good for the universe. Now, this process of learning through exchange of idea between persons who are located in different parts of the globe has become easier, thanks to the revolutionary improvements in the field of travel and communication. Now, with the introduction of internet, communication has become much faster and more reliable than ever before.
