The image used for the cover of the ACE/ACSET/ACEurs2015 Conference Programme is from a woodblock
print by Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849). It is one of ten woodblock prints in the series “Remarkable Views ofBridges in Various Provinces” (shokoku meikyo kiran) and was originally published in around 1834.
This print is titled “Tenman Bridge in Settsu Province” (Sesshu Tenmanbashi).The image depicts a scene from theTenjin Matsuri in Osaka, one of Japan’s three greatest festivals. It is a summer festival held at Osaka Tenmangu
Shrine dedicated to Sugawara-no-Michizane (845-903), the patron god of learning and art. One of the highlightsof the festival is the land procession which is a parade of some 3,000 people dressed in the imperial-court styleof the 8th-12th centuries marching beside portable shrines.

welcome to kobe
Dear Colleagues,

I am extremely happy to welcome you all to The Seventh IAFOR Asian Conference on Education (ACE2015), held alongside
the Third IAFOR Asian Conference on Society, Education and Technology (ACSET2015).
Although still in the wonderful Kansai region of Japan, the historical and cultural heart of the country, we have moved to theport city of Kobe, and to our new conference home, nestled between green Mount Rokkō, and the Seto Inland Sea.
This conference holds a special place in the IAFOR calendar, as it was the first conference organised by IAFOR, and is oneof its best attended, with many returning on a yearly basis because of the supportive and nurturing research environment,
because of the unique networking opportunities, and because of the strength of the organisation’s platform. Since 2009 the
IAFOR Education program of events has increased to see events in Europe, the Middle East and North America, as well asJapan, as this year we come together to consider the theme: “Education, Power and Empowerment: Transcending Boundaries”.

I would like to thanks the conference chairs, Professors Sue Jackson and Michiko Nakano (ACE), Barbara Lockee and Rob
Logie (ACSET), and José McClanahan (ACEurs); the keynote, featured, and spotlight speakers, and each and every delegate,
representing more than 50 countries. I would also like to thank our university affiliates, who bring their institutions’ reputation
and academic credibility to help make The International Academic Forum a reality.
We welcome your active engagement in this expanding global academic community of individuals and network of institutions,and I encourage your active engagement and participation as a route to intellectual and personal empowerment, as wetranscend boundaries of nation, culture and discipline, in the search of new friendships, and new knowledge.
I look forward to meeting you all.
Warm regards,

Dr. Joseph Haldane, Ph.D. (London), F.R.S.A., F.R.A.S.
President, IAFOR

Keynote Presentation: Language Learning: Then and Now
Technology has changed our lives in many ways. How we learn a language is one way. When I was studying English, I
used the various materials available at that time such as TV, radio, cassette tapes and pen pals. However, learners today
can take advantage of the latest technology such as the Internet, social media, smart phones, tablets and digital books.
Osaka Jogakuin University (OJU) started “iPad One to One” in 2012. “iPad One to One” means that each student has
her own iPad to assist her learning. The English faculty members of OJU have created 12 e-books, which help students
learn better because the books are motivating and incorporate various digital resources available. In my talk, I willcontrast materials used in language learning in the past with the variety of technological resources currently or soon
to be available for language learning today.

the Chito-Ryu World Karate Do Championships (Soke Cup) held that year in Hong Kong; four athletes representing
Nishioka Dojo won gold medals at the Hong Kong Championships. These athletes are honoured to perform for you
today.
Featured Karate & Power Demonstration
The conference theme of Power and Empowerment is explored in this karate display from expert teachers andstudents from Osaka’s Nishioka Dojo, who practice the Chito-Ryu form of the Japanese martial art.
Chito-Ryu traces its ancestry back to old Chinese martial arts of the Tang dynasty (618-907AD). Later, these martial artsthat were brought to Okinawa from Fukien Province, China were passed on through the diligence and thoroughnessof many past masters. Chitose Tsuyoshi (O Sensei) mastered the spirit and techniques of To-de which possesses a richhistory and long tradition.
Furthermore, O Sensei studied the various forms of Okinawa Te. One discipline, which originated in Shuri City, a townof nobles and Samurai, was called Shuri no Te (首里の手). In recent years Shuri no Te has become known as ShorinRyu (小林流). The second discipline, which originated in Naha City, a commercial town, was called Naha no Te (那覇の手). In recent years Naha no Te has become known as Shorei-Ryu (昭霊流).O Sensei assimilated the essence of
these so that he could enhance To-de among the Japanese martial arts. In addition, the present day Chito-Ryu style ofKarate Do also incorporates a sound medical, physiological and scientific base in order to foster health in all, especially
youth and the elderly.

Dr. Yvonne Masters is currently a Senior Lecturer in Professional Classroom Practice in the School of Education,
University of New England (UNE), Armidale, Australia, a position that she accepted after 5 years as Director ofProfessional Experience in the same School. Prior to taking up her position at UNE,Yvonne had 30 years’ experience insecondary schools including in the roles of Curriculum Coordinator, Deputy Principal and Principal, which developed
her skills in leadership, project management, curriculum and assessment. Her teaching experience spans three Australianstates. Yvonne’s research interests centre on teacher education, professional experience and virtual worlds, with aparticular focus on distance education students. She has a keen interest in developing an understanding in pre-service
teachers of the need for a caring and professional approach to teaching. Her goal is the development of teachers
who respect their students and empower them in classrooms rather than dis-empowering them through punitive andunreasonable responses. Yvonne gained in 2010, in collaboration with other researchers, an Office of Learning andTeaching (OLT) grant entitled VirtualPREX: Innovative assessment using a 3D virtual world with pre-service teachers,
and at the end of 2014 received an OLT Seed Grant to develop resources to equip pre-service teachers for the newwave of virtual schools. Yvonne has written and co-written seven book chapters, two journal articles and presented
six refereed conference papers in the last three years. ​While Yvonne is an active researcher and a teacher educator,
her deep passion is providing school students with an engaging classroom where each student is respected for theirown individuality and provided with an environment that facilitates their learning.
Featured Presentation: Communication and the Empowering (or Disempowering) Teacher
Regardless of the age of their students, teachers can be agents of either empowerment or disempowerment. Ginott(1972) stated that “I’ve come to a frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom” and,as such, it behoves all teachers to think deeply about their communication in a learning environment. The main
form of communication is, of course, language and major social theorists, such as Bourdieu, Foucault and Habermas,
have recognised the importance of language as social capital. It is acknowledged that language not only has power,
but frequently ‘is’ power, and how we use language in education is a vital boundary between empowerment or
disempowerment for our students.
In this presentation, the ways in which communication, albeit unwittingly at times, can be either empowering or
disempowering for students will be explored. The presentation will have three main foci: the ways in which language
can inadvertently disempower; the ways in which communication is crucial for inclusivity; and the ways in which
students can be either empowered or disempowered through the use of different means of communication in
online learning environments. The presentation will be interactive as well as informative, and attendees will be asked
to undertake brief reflections drawing on both personal experience and knowledge of education practice to moredeeply explore how communication can build up or break down boundaries.

Featured Presentation: How Teachers Consolidate the Phenomenon of Cultural Reproduction by Using Duality
Giddens argues that the combination of acknowledgeability and capability allows the actor to develop creative
actions that free him/her from social constraints. Such duality suggests that if teachers are empowered and recognise
the inequity of educational results, evident with the phenomenon of cultural reproduction, they may behave astransformative intellectuals who employ a cross-boundary strategy assisting working-class students to produce goodacademic performances. This enables education to practice the emancipatory function by opening the gateway of
upwards mobility for this student group that suffers from a severe shortage of cultural capital and, as a result, isunable to develop a habitus good at academic curriculum. However, although some secondary teachers in Taiwan
recognise the rules or properties of educational selection mainly determined by examination scores, they do not use
this perception as a resource to develop creative pedagogy, but as a strategy to promote their status as excellent
teachers who are good at employing a 3Rs pedagogy aiming to produce excellent students good at tests. As a result,the phenomenon of cultural reproduction remains.

Conference Chair Address – Shaping the Future:Why Incorporating Undergraduate Student into Research and

Scholarship is So Important
In higher education today, many faculty hear administrators pushing for more undergraduate research on theircampuses. It has even become part of the marketing materials by admission departments. And yet, outside of the
traditional hard sciences like biology, chemistry, or physics, many professors do not fully understand how they can
incorporate undergraduates in to their own projects and what it means to collaborate with them in their scholarship.
As such, this presentation aims to explore how to better include these students into your research agenda, help
dissipate some of the commonly held myths about undergraduate students in research, and discover the benefits ofthis work for both faculty and students alike. Higher education is evolving. Students and faculty are changing at a rapid
pace as well. Therefore, as educators, it is paramount that we continue to move forward by adapting and creating new
ways of shaping the future for our students and for the educational experience.
Undergraduate Research Symposium Workshop: Undergraduate Research and You – A Conversation about
Engaging Students in Research Across All Disciplines (with Yvonne Masters)
This session is specifically geared towards professors or instructors who work with undergraduate students. Here,we will focus on creating a dialogue with everyone present in order to discover how we are able to involve more
undergraduate students in collaborative research projects. Moreover, we will explore disciplines that have long been
considered non-traditional areas of student-faculty research (ie. Humanities, Social Sciences). We welcome professors
and instructors who have already engaged students and those who are looking for ideas about how they may takepart. We envision an interactive session with input from facilitators and participants alike.

Myles Chilton

Nihon University, Japan

Featured Presentation: English Power
English studies are often assumed to be crucial to student empowerment; ability in the world’s lingua franca supposedly
opens doors and expands horizons. Underlying this assumption is anxiety over the implications of the global spread ofEnglish. It is often seen as agent of destruction of not only local languages, but also of Anglo-American domination of
local cultures, ways of thinking, and representation – in other words, it is seen as a power that must be kept in check. In
my presentation I will discuss English studies as a locus of disciplinary power, how this power was derived from and insome ways structured external structures of political and cultural power, how the discipline is interrogating its internal
discourses of power, and its place in globalized circuits of educational power. In particular I will discuss ways in which
English language study has responded by rethinking its pedagogical practices and the authority of the native speaker,
and how literary study increasingly recognizes that English language textual production and reception have widened
their geographical and linguistic bases. I will also discuss questions raised by these developments, including whether
globalized English should be seen as decoupled from its Anglo-American historical and cultural origins, and why,paradoxically, a traditional Anglo-American literary canon remains prevalent, particularly in non-Anglophone countries.
Many argue that literary studies in particular has more work to do to break out of its traditional Anglo-centric criticaland pedagogic paradigms, while others counter that the discipline should concentrate on the language rather than its
contexts of production and reception.

Encouraging Children to Care: Developing a School Curriculum That Fosters International Empathy and Action
Lucy Bailey, University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus, Malaysia

ace acset 2015
spotlight presenters

About the Presenter: Dr. Lucy Bailey is Assistant Professor in the School of Education at the University of Nottingham
Malaysia Campus. After completing her BA at the University of Oxford and her M.A. at the London University Institute of
Education, Dr. Bailey was awarded a Ph.D from the University of Bristol. She has lived and worked in many countries, including
Denmark, New Zealand and the Czech Republic. Her current research interests include children who cross national borders
for their education – both refugees, asylum seekers and students at international schools. She has also published on education
policy, gender and education, and management systems in education.
Abstract: It has been posited that the internationalisation of education will promote the development of empathy and action
at a global level. For example, the International Baccalaureate Organisation claims that its programmes enable students to “beable to engage with people in an increasingly globalized, rapidly changing world” (IBO, 2014). However, the development of
empathy and caring behaviour towards others is a complex process, which necessitates transcending the boundary between
the self and other. Moreover, the degree to which caring actions are directed towards the geographically immediate community,
or directed towards people at a distance, may be mediated by the regional and national boundaries which are erected during
the schooling. In consequence, the degree to which the IBO system succeeds in creating engaged global citizens deserves
further examination, both to evaluate the success of this curriculum and to identify key features which facilitate or inhibit suchforms of engagement.
This paper reports on a study of the pro-social behaviour of students in international schools following the curriculum of theInternational Baccalaureate Organisation. Drawing on data from nine case-study schools, each covering the 3-18 age range,
and located across three continents, the study included over 150 interviews with school personnel and students, and a surveyof over 2,000 students. Building on the work of Noddings (2002) on fostering an ethical curriculum, aspects of the curriculumthat facilitate the development of global caring behaviour amongst young people are identified, and ways in which these might
be replicated in national curricula are discussed.

Untried and Untrue: Common Core’s Mechanization of Education
Craig Sower, Shujitsu University, Japan
About the Presenter: Craig Sower is Professor of English at Shujitsu University in Okayama, Japan, where he has taught
writing and teacher-education at both the undergraduate and post-graduate levels since 1998. He is a graduate of the Schoolfor International Training. Mr. Sower has lived in Japan since 1988, and has written and presented extensively on curriculum
development, teacher-education, writing, intercultural communication, TESOL, TEFL, American progressive education, Japanese
education, yutori kyoiku, and education reform.
Abstract: In 2013, according to National Public Radio, two-thirds of Americans had not heard of the Common Core State
Standards Initiative (CCSSI). A year later, 80% knew about CCSSI, and 60% were opposed. The confluence of Big Business and
Big Government support for CCSSI has fed growing opposition including parents, teachers, and civil libertarians. While muchof the debate concerns the contents of the standards, this paper focuses on the process used to develop CCSSI and thebureaucracy that would operate it.
The CCSSI claims to be state-led, internationally benchmarked, and based on the latest research, but it is not. In July 2009, $4.35
billion in federal funding was made available to recession-shocked states through the Race to the Top program. Participatingstates were required to adopt CCSSI and join one of two approved assessment consortia. In 2010, before the standards had
been written, 46 states and Washington, D.C. agreed to join. As of May 2015, only 28 states and Washington, D.C. remaincommitted. Supporters say CCSSI is state-led and voluntary; critics say federal funding is intimidation and bribery.
In addition, opponents are concerned about centralization and the collection of real-time data on students and teachers.
Mandatory, copyrighted curriculum, textbooks, lesson plans, and Core-aligned assessments remove teachers from heretoforekey elements of education.To many, the use of cameras and biofeedback devices on students to obtain fine-grained data seems
Orwellian. Opponents fear such monitoring of classrooms will transform education from an art into an exercise in industrialstyle Taylorism. We can do better.

IAFORThe International Academic Forum
Academic Vision and Mission“To Open Minds, To Educate Intelligence, To Inform Decisions”
The vision of IAFOR grew out of the perceived need to fill a vacuum in the communication and exchange activities of the academic world.
Its mission arose out of examining that space and investigating why it existed. The vacuum existed because of the lack of opportunity forserious and thoughtful exchange between academics, members of the global business community, and practitioners in the fields of humanendeavor that linked these groups together. In the field of education, for example, we have academic theorists, educational managers(political decision-makers and organisational directors) and classroom teachers with their support staff in IT, library work, exchange
programs, and specialist fields. But how often do they have the opportunity to interact?
Moving beyond one particular field, larger questions arise. What function should universities prioritise in the 21st century? What do
businesses see as their contribution to social and global well-being? How can people on the ground, trying to implement improvementsthat will transform human life, best be supported? And perhaps above all, what are the agendas that will drive mechanisms to enable thesegroups to interact effectively.
One piece of distilled thought that came from early exchanges at one of our conferences was the recognition that some of the rhetoricof concern about the problems of developing nations was perhaps over-focused on the term “poverty” because it can be defined only ina relative way. “Hunger” was put forward as being more immediate and itself a contributory factor to poverty, rather than the other way
round. One key to the hunger issue could be the provision of safe drinking water, or water for irrigation in some contexts, while flood
management might be necessary elsewhere. These, in and by themselves become valuable only insofar as they help to relieve hunger in
specific contexts.
IAFOR is affording opportunities that do not exist elsewhere. The base is Kansai, Japan’s great commercial and manufacturing hub, one
symbol of the emerging Pacific economy that is already eclipsing the long dominant Atlantic zone. Our conferences present those taking
part with three unique dimensions of experience. First of all, it encourages interdisciplinary activity to be expanded. Depending on the field,
this can face varying degrees of difficulty, ranging from discouragement to downright prohibition.Those overly dependent on fixed academic
structures often see lateral thinking as a threat. None of these negatives apply in IAFOR. Its purpose is to generate new approaches thatcross any disciplinary lines. The principle employed is to let the imagination permit intuitive responses to questions. There are no panels ofcritics. There are simply people who want to listen and reflect. The model of academic work as potholing is replaced by the metaphor ofmountaineering. While respecting the need for solid and well-founded academic work, we feel the need to go beyond it from time to time
to discover fresh approaches to old questions.
Secondly, it facilitates the heightening of intercultural awareness. Again, we encourage innovation through cross-cultural perception. Culturalroots influence people in their attitudes more than most would realise or admit. The need to see and internalise insights gained from otherviewpoints is met by a process of steady illumination.
Thirdly, it promotes the broadening of international exchange. We may live in a world, but in reality parochialism still holds sway.The collapseof the U.S.S.R and the break-up of Yugoslavia led to the re-establishment of numerous former countries. While this may be desirable for thepeoples concerned, it merely adds to the world’s cultural confusion. Exchange leads to explanation and that helps the growth of interculturalawareness.
IAFOR makes all of these developments possible in one gathering. Our conferences are not a substitute for specialist conferences. We
intend our events to be an alternative that functions as a balance or even a corrective to the extreme tendencies that can arise from morenarrowly defined research parameters. In short, IAFOR is promoting and facilitating a new multifaceted approach to one of the core issuesof our time, namely globalisation and its many forms of growth and expansion. Awareness of how it cuts across the worlds of business, andacademia, along with its impact on societies and institutions is one of the driving forces that has given the organisation its momentum, andis making it a pioneer in this global age.
