ABSTRACT

Children's education in the era of globalization faces significant challenges and opportunities. Globalization has changed the educational landscape with the rapid development of information and communication technology, the wide accessibility of information, and increasingly intense interaction between cultures. This literature review explores the challenges and opportunities faced by children's education in the era of globalization based on the latest literature. The literature review shows that one of the biggest challenges is the digital divide between individuals with access to technology and those without access. Children from low socioeconomic backgrounds or remote areas face difficulty accessing the digital educational resources needed to compete in a globalized world. Therefore, the need for efforts to expand the accessibility of technology in all walks of life is essential. In addition, globalization also brings changes in the needs and demands of jobs in the global market. Children's education must adapt curriculum and learning to suit evolving needs, such as critical thinking, creativity, cooperation, and digital skills. However, the era of globalization also provides new opportunities for children's education. The widespread accessibility of information provides opportunities for children to access various learning resources online. They can access learning materials, e- books, and other educational resources without geographical restrictions. It allows children to develop their interests and talents through independent exploration. The increasingly intense intercultural interaction also opens up opportunities to learn about cultural diversity and different values. Children can broaden their understanding of the world through multicultural education and develop inclusive attitudes that foster global cooperation.
