"Global Migration and Education "makes a notable contribution to
understanding the issues faced by immigrant children, their
parents, and educators as they interact in school settings, and to
identifying the common challenges to, and successes in, educational
institutions worldwide as they cope with these issues. It will help
educators and others involved in these complex processes to see
beyond the notion of "problems" created and experienced by recently
arrived young children. Rather, this volume provides many concrete
suggestions deriving from the success stories and voices of
teachers, parents, and students. It also offers evidence that
diversity can be a condition for learning that, when understood,
embraced, and supported, leads to rich learning opportunities for
all involved that would not exist without diversity. All of the
authors offer recommendations about educational policy and
practices to address and ultimately improve the education of all
children, including immigrant children.
The book is organized around five themes:
*Multiple Global Issues for Immigrant Children and the Schools They
Attend;
*They Are Here: Newcomers in the Schools;
*Views and Voices of Immigrant Children;
*Far from Home With Fluctuating Hopes; and
*Searching for New Ways to Belong.
Intended for researchers, students, school professionals, and
educational policymakers and analysts around the world in the
fields of multicultural education, child psychology, comparative
and international education, educational foundations, educational
policy, and cross-cultural studies, this book is highly relevant as
a text for courses in these areas.
