Educational Cooperation. Cooperationrefers to a situation where two or more actors work to achieve a common goal, whereby they work across organizational boundaries (Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 2005). Cooperation is commonly explained from an economic point of view, and the desired outcome of cooperation is revenue maximizing (Xxxxxxxx & Perelberg, 2004). Based on the previous definition on cooperation, XxXxxxxx et al (2008) thought that educational cooperation in the broadest sense occurred whenever two or more parties worked together to achieve an educational objective. In international education cooperation, two or more of the parties working together are from different countries. Cooperative relationships can take form in many ways; joint ventures, strategic alliances, networks and other cooperative alliances (Xxxxxx and Xxxxx, 2013). The idea of cooperation is as diverse as the multitude was of cooperative relationships; advanced of a shared vision, economies of scale benefits, shared production costs, relationships aimed to pursue a set of agreed upon goals or to meet common goals(Xxxxxx and Xxxxx ,2013). Cooperation in education is beneficial for all the stakeholders, including the participant universities, research centers, students and the nation etc. According to Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx (2005), Cooperation has at least five advantages, namely access to resources, shared risk, and efficiency, learning and moral imperative. Xxxxxxxx Xxxx (2013), a researcher from China,studied the educational cooperation in EU, she found that students from EU countries have much more opportunities to touch different cultures by studying in other countries. By comparing other cultures with their own ones, they will have a much deeper insight into “Common European Cultural Heritage”. She thought that building cooperation relationship had obvious effect on improving the outlook of EU countries. In the programs, EU countries promote educational equality, fight against racism and accelerate the development of social welfare. Xxxx (2013) also pointed out that EU countries could influence the arrangement and the curriculum through international cooperation in education and finally set the acceptable educational standards for both EU countries and other countries. Though, cooperation relationship has so many merits, scholars also mentioned some very obvious disadvantages. Cooperative relationships is a “resource-consuming activity (Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 2005). It takes much time, personnel, and money to start and to su...
Educational Cooperation. What is educational cooperation about? This questions cannot be answered with one simple words. It involves a comprehensive system run by a special group of people. From the economic perspectives, cooperation has five basic advantages, namely access to resources, sharing risks, improving efficiency, learning and moral imperative, (Huxham and Xxxxxx, 2005). In the field of education, the advantages of cooperation are mainly focus on access to resources and learning. The resources refers to those that cannot be acquired, or can be obtained but with a very high prices. What can be rare resources at CUST in the eyes of UiN? From the view of Xxxxx, the Chinese business culture, the experience of China etc. She thought that if the business students in UiN want deal with companies in their future work, they had better to know how Chinese merchants think and how they behave are important. For example, there is an untold rule existing in the business field in China: the contracts are often signed on the table after getting drunk. Also the life experience is another resources for Norwegian students, “It’s very interesting to see that for the Norwegians, Asia is very interesting, exciting place and China is even more exciting than Asia as a whole,. but coming to China, it’s exotic, it’s different” as Xxxxxxxx said. There are five mostly used forms of international educational cooperation nowadays, just as shown in Table.1. The most common types are student exchange and research cooperation. In practice, XxX and CUST now just involve international exchanges of person through scholarships or grants, but no researchers and administrators were included. From the year of 2007, there are in total 15 students from CUST come to Bodø and have their study. Two of them are from Faculty of Social Science and the rest are from the Faculty of Business School. Students from CUST mainly studied entrepreneurship and management control which UiN are good at. These students have a very good basis on business and economy. Most of them are majored in International Trade and Business, some are from Accounting, while there are also some who are keen on Information Management and Information System. There is little development in the research cooperation. Xxxxxxxx gave her perspectives: “Researchcooperation ishardertoachieve.Iseethattherearesome
