These trends have coincided with significant changes in family formation, dissolution, and structures. How have these changes played out in the diverse educational systems of East Asia? In what innovative ways are East Asian governments addressing the new demographic realities of their student populations? This volume offers a snapshot of key educational stratification issues in East Asian nations, and their evolution in conjunction with changing student populations. Scholars of Japan, China, and Korea in this volume address issues ranging from curricular adaptations to globalization, to persisting and new forms of educational stratification, to new multiculturalism in educational policy. In addition, authors consider the ways that migration is shaping education in the city-states of Hong Kong and Singapore. Collectively, the pieces in this volume represent a first attempt to investigate national responses to critical regional trends.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 28mmItem Weight: 590gContributor: Emily Hannum (Edited by), Hyunjoon Park (Edited by), Yuko Goto Butler (Edited by), Emily Hannum (Series edited by)Author: Emily HannumGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Children's Learning & EducationBook Series: Research in the Sociology of EducationRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
