This book covers the seven-year project involving China, Germany,
Japan, Singapore, Switzerland, and the US, to show how
collaborative research can help expand worldwide knowledge of
education.
Noel McGinn designed and participated in a unique comparative
international education research project, the Six Nation Education
Research Project, a seven-year effort involving China, Germany,
Japan, Singapore, Switzerland, and the US, to show how
collaborative research can help expand worldwide knowledge of
education. This book examines the effects of the different
comparative educational research conducted. The research involved
cross-cultural comparison on a variety of topics, including
language instruction, educational indicators (testing results),
reform of higher education management, secondary vocational
education, and determinations of school effectiveness.
However important the school may be as a vehicle to
institutionalize and perpetuate democracy, it has been largely
ignored by contemporary scholars of democratization especially in
developing and former socialist countries. This book draws on new
research as well as established classics in helping to fill the gap
and map out useful directions for comparative inquiry on the role
of education in democratization and transitions from centralized
authority.
