Globalization, migration, transnational movements and the
development of the tiger economies of Asia have led education
leaders and policy makers around the world but particularly in
Australia, the USA, Canada, and New Zealand to view schools as key
sites for developing 'globally competent', 'Asia literate' citizens
who have the capabilities to live, work and interact with the
peoples, cultures and societies of Asia. In what has been dubbed
the 'Asian Century', nations are increasingly seeking to transform
their schooling policies, curricula, and teaching workforces to
engage with the growing influence of the peoples, cultures and
societies both within and beyond Asia. This is the first book to
subject to critical scrutiny and analysis the concepts, policies
and practices of schooling involved in building intercultural
relations with the diverse contemporary manifestations of 'Asia'.
It brings into dialogue scholars who are at the forefront of
current thinking, policy and practice on Asia-related schooling,
and contributes to a broader, international debate about the future
shape of intercultural schooling in a global world. Asia Literate
Schooling in the Asian Century offers chapters on: * Learning Asia:
In search of a new narrative * Asia Literacy as Experiential
Learning * Professional Standards and Ethics in Teaching Asia
Literacy * The Feasibility of Implementing Cross-Curricular Studies
of Asia * Deparochialising Education and the Asian Priority: A
Curriculum (Re)Imagination This book will appeal to scholars and
practitioners in Education, and is suitable as a reference for
teacher education courses. It will also interest scholars
specialising in Asian Studies.
