Abstract

The internationalization of higher education has become an important development for the global education system, but the shared development of global teacher resources still faces many challenges, including policy barriers, differences in education systems, and career development restrictions. This article analyzes the current situation of global teacher resource sharing, explores its role in knowledge dissemination, academic cooperation, and education quality improvement, and reveals the main factors affecting global teacher mobility. Research has found that although countries have taken a series of measures to promote cross-border teacher mobility, there are still deficiencies in institutional coordination, cultural adaptation, technical support, and other aspects, which have affected the effective allocation of global educational resources. Based on this, this article proposes the following suggestions: establishing a more flexible teacher mobility mechanism, optimizing the global teacher certification system, strengthening remote teaching and academic cooperation, and improving the career development support system to promote the shared development of global teacher resources and enhance the international competitiveness of higher education.
