International interest focuses on why pupils from East-Asia tend to
outperform pupils from the West and scholars have proposed a number
of possible explanations to account for these international trends.
Using Vygotsky's theory (1978) as a conceptual framework to
"construct" school achievement, this book puts forward culturally
relevant context for understanding developmental aspects of
children's school achievement and their implication to classroom
practice and education progress. Converging the two important lines
of inquiry - the child factor and the sociocultural factor - this
book showcases evidence-based scholarly works from across the globe
that shed light on causes of academic achievement in different
contexts. The book brings together eminent scholars from early
childhood, primary education, secondary and vocational education
who expertly capture the vitality of development and processes of
specific child factors and their interaction with their environment
that explain their school achievement. Foregrounded in the five
planes of cultural historical, institutional, social, personal and
mental, the research explain how children think, learn and form the
will to perform amidst the changing social and family environment,
and challenging school and educational environment.
