Much has been written about globalization and the challenge of
preparing young people for the new world of work and life in times
of complexity and continuous change. However, few works have
examined how globalization has and will continue to shape education
in the East. This volume discusses education within the context of
globalization and examines what is occurring in schools and systems
of education in the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong, Chinese
Taipei, Singapore, and Australia. Closer examination of recent
developments and current trends reveal the same turbulence and a
range of common issues in areas such as assessment, curriculum,
leadership, management of change, pedagogy, policy, professional
capacity and technology. This volume demonstrates the commonalities
and differences and offers tremendous insight into the way things
are done in places where student achievement is high but there is
also a sense of urgency in continuing an agenda of change.
