Philip Wing Keung Chan

4.9/5 (25628 ratings)

Description:Education in Asia Pacific countries is being transformed by globalization and the market economy. Most economies within the region have flourished due to increased regional capital flow, trade, and other forms of economic and political interaction. The Asia Pacific also has rich and unique traditions which create cultural diversity, as well as common challenges, including obstacles of language and geographical separation. While these countries are well documented in Western scholarship, there is a growing reaction to the predominance of Western social theories. This response is fuelling recognition of and movement towards theories that reference the wide range of contextual and cultural perspectives available in the East. The contributors to this volume are currently researching contemporary education in Asia Pacific countries. They offer Eastern-oriented perspectives on teacher education, parent participation, government withdrawal, textbook content, uses of modern technology, the challenges of the migrating families, and tertiary students who travel from overseas for study. These commentaries highlight the issues of equity, identity, and social justice, and also open up dialogue between social theories that reference East as well as West.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
