Impact of modern international trends on the development of the education system

Objective: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the impact of modern international trends on the development of the education system, particularly focusing on the internationalization of universities. The study aims to identify and evaluate the leading trends shaping higher education on a global scale. Methods: This research employs both qualitative and quantitative approaches, including an expert survey and analysis of relevant literature, reports, and materials from organizations influencing higher education. Data were collected from November 2023 to February 2024, with a focus on the most significant trends in the internationalization of universities. Results: The study identifies three leading trends in the global development of higher education: government and international initiatives supporting internationalization, the creation of network value through university-business cooperation, and the development of educational Internet technologies such as massive open online courses (MOOCs) and virtual reality (VR). These trends significantly impact the internationalization of universities, with government initiatives being the most influential.
