In response to the challenges of globalization and local
development, educational reforms are inevitably becoming one of the
major trends in the Asia-Pacific Region or other parts of the
world. Based on the most recent research and international
observations, this book aims to present a new paradigm including
various new concepts, frameworks and theories for reengineering
education.
This book has 21 chapters in three sections. Section I "New
Paradigm of Educational Reform" containing eight chapters,
illustrates the new paradigm and frameworks of reengineering
education, fostering human development and analysing reform
policies and also discusses the trends and challenges of
educational reforms in the Asia-Pacific Region.
Section II "New Paradigm of Educational Leadership" with five
chapters aims to elaborate how the nature, role and practice of
school leadership can be transformed towards a new paradigm and
respond to the three waves of education reforms.
Section III "Reengineering School Management for Effectiveness"
with eight chapters aims to provide various practical frameworks
for reengineering school management processes and implementing
changes in school practices.
