The Asia-Pacific region has rich and unique traditions, cultural
diversity and common as well as unique challenges, including
obstacles of language and geographical separation. As home to over
60 per cent of the world's population, this region has a diverse
range of educational issues, which have not as yet been fully
explored. This ground-breaking volume considers current
perspectives on educational diversity, challenges and changes
occurring across a number of countries in the region and provides a
closer look at these complexities. Focus has been given to the
influence and impact that these complexities are having on policy
and practice in leadership, governance and administration
structures. Who has been given the agency? What kinds of power
currents are in play? What are the hidden political enablers and
disablers in these narratives? The authors of chapters in this
series have presented some solid examples of what is currently
happening, the discourse that is emerging around it, the effects of
these changes and their impact within the region. While some of
these narratives are a synthesis of literature and policy, other
chapters have focused on findings from empirical studies being
conducted in this space. As a timely collection of works from
active researchers in Education, the book supports and encourages
the importance of on-going educational research within the
Asia-Pacific region The findings in this book have been drawn from
original and current research which is anticipated as being a
valuable academic reference as well as a teaching resource in the
field of Education. This volume will be beneficial to students and
academics of Education around the world as well as a useful
reference to educational academics, researchers, policy-makers and
administrators across the Asia-Pacific region.
