The Historian’s Corner builds on the work of Elizabeth Sherman Swing, the Society’s first Historian.  It expands the Historian’s responsibility to “Supervise the collection of new documents [and] facilitate research projects ... related to the archives of the Society” (Article III, Section 7, d of the Society’s Bylaws) by making crucial documents relating to the history and functioning of Comparative Education accessible to the membership through the Society’s website. 

The Historian’s Corner replaces the “Documents and Papers” link on the CIES website, placing the new link under the direct supervision of the Society’s Historian.  The contents of the Historian’s Corner will feature documents and papers (especially the Constitution and Bylaws, as amended) that may change from time to time.  The Society’s Historian will choose those documents and papers for inclusion that he/she believes are vital to sustain the Society’s institutional memory and knowledge of the profession generally.

  • Comparative and International Education Course Archive Project (CIECAP)
    The Comparative and International Education Course Archive Project (CIECAP) is a special project of the Center for Comparative Education and an activity of the Comparative and International Education Graduate Student Association (CIEGSA) at Loyola University Chicago, endorsed as a project of the World Council of Comparative Education Societies. CIECAP, an on-line database of salient features of the introductory course in comparative education as taught at universities around the world, is an important addition to the growing body of research on the nature of the field itself, including its form and parameters.

  • Comparative Education Instructional Materials Archive (CEIMA) is a project of the Center for International Comparative Education at Bowling Green State University.  CEIMA is an electronic, publicly accessible website for gathering and sharing teaching resources among educators of comparative and international education at universities worldwide.
