But what do we mean by educational policy borrowing from the West?
What are the educational policies in China's new curriculum reform that are perceived to be borrowed from the West?
To what extent have the borrowed educational policies in China's new curriculum reform been accepted, modified, and rejected by the various educational stakeholders?
How does culture influence the various educational stakeholders in China in interpreting and mediating educational policy borrowing from the West?
How do the findings of this study on China's education reform inform and add to the existing theories on and approaches to on cross-cultural educational policy borrowing?
This book answers the above questions by critically discussing China's policy borrowing from the West through its current reform for primary and secondary education. It presents the latest in-depth research findings from a three-year empirical study (2013-2015) with school principals, teachers, students and other educational stakeholders across China. This study offers new insights into China's educational policy borrowing from the West and international implications on cross-cultural educational transfer for academics, policymakers and educators.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'This remarkable book contributes in multiple ways both to our understanding of current schooling and educational issues in China, and of processes of educational and cultural borrowing, a core theme in the field of Comparative Education. It is broad in scope as well as rich in empirical depth. ... I see this book as bringing an unusual depth and richness to insights into the process of educational borrowing, a core theme in the field of comparative education, also to the understanding of China's current educational reform process.' - Professor Ruth Hayhoe, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto (in Frontiers of Education, Volume 11, Issue 3)'Overall, this is a remarkable and impressive piece of work, which has not only gone through the mechanics and politics of China's borrowing policy from the West and its uptake in practice, but also dig deep into its cultural and historical roots for an explanation of the surprising and paradoxical development from both the borrower's and the borrowee's perspectives. There is no denying that it is a great contribution to the exploration of policy borrowing in the rarely touched Chinese context and a valuable addition to the reservoir of comparative education research as well.' - Qiuxian Chen & Ru Zhang, Foreign Language School, Shanxi University, Taiyuan, China (in Asia Pacific Journal of Education, Vol 39, issue 1)

Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist.
Mit Adobe-DRM wird hier ein „harter” Kopierschutz verwendet. Wenn die notwendigen Voraussetzungen nicht vorliegen, können Sie das E-Book leider nicht öffnen. Daher müssen Sie bereits vor dem Download Ihre Lese-Hardware vorbereiten.
