Have you ever heard about 'Glocalization'?

Have you ever heard about 'Glocalization'? I am not spelling it wrongly. It is not globalization. I heard this term from Aj.Thoopthong duing our class session on Thursday. Then, I did some more research on it.

‘Glocalization’ is a balance that could be found between global and local in respect of cultures, economies and societies.

What does “Think Globally. Act Locally” mean for education? Do you have any ideas to adapt yourself into the term 'glocalization'? How can you do so? Please share!

Alright, I have heard about this in Aj. Thoop class and also Analytical reading class.
Glocalization is something about how to adapt globalization to the local.
In the studying field, it means how to teach the students to know about the knowledge which is worldwide as well as adaptable to their local.
It is so interesting and I think that it is suitable for this decading world of learning.
Besides, about "think globally and act locally" which I've been discussed in the Analytical reading class, I think that it is a good way for new generation students who have not only learn for being able to involve with international but also improve thier local.

Yes, I have.
I have heard it in Aj.Thoop and Aj. Jeab class.
It comes from the following 2 words;global and local.
It's talks about sharing something to around world by using local.

Wow!! This topic is very interesting.
I've never heard this vocabulary before.
When I see it first, I think you may misspell.
It might be the word " Globalization".
You make me want to know the meaning of this word.
This is Glocalization's definition that I found on the internet.

"the practice of conducting business according to both local and global considerations."

I have search this word from http://www.kansaiu.ac.jp/Tozaiken/publication/asset/bulletin/46/kiyo4609.pdf.

Fred E. Andeson tell that
"The concept of glocalization suggests that as the various cultures of the world become
outwardly more similar—as seen in such domains as food culture, pop music, and the
widespread use of English as an international language—they simultaneously develop local
adaptations of the globalized products."

Thus, I think that "Glocalization" is something about how to adapt globalization to the local.

No, I have not.
Is it a kind of organization. or
Is its meaning similar to the word "Globalization"?

Yes, I also heard it from Aj. Thoop's class.
I think when we learn things from western country such as eating habits, accent, life styles, and so on, we apply them into our country. I heard she said that Glocalization is like we learn English but when we speak, we don't need to have an accent like a native. We can speak by our accent.
This is 'Glocalization' for my opinion.
