INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS IN SCIENCE AND EDUCATION: PROBLEMS, SOLUTIONS, AND WAYS TO ADAPTING THEM TO NATIONAL EXPERIENCE

Abstract

International standards in science and education have become central to global academic development, shaping policies, curricula, and research methodologies across nations. The rapid expansion of technological innovation, global mobility, and cross-border collaboration has intensified the need for unified criteria that ensure quality, transparency, and comparability in scientific and educational practices. However, the implementation of these standards presents significant challenges, including disparities in economic resources, cultural differences, gaps in institutional capacity, and varying pedagogical traditions. This paper examines the major problems associated with adopting international standards, identifies practical solutions for overcoming systemic barriers, and analyzes strategies for adapting global frameworks to national contexts without compromising cultural identity or local priorities. The study highlights the dialectical relationship between global norms and national experience, emphasizing the necessity of balanced integration to achieve sustainable academic progress and equitable educational development.
