In what has been dubbed the ‘Asian Century’, nations are increasingly seeking to transform their schooling policies, curricula, and teaching workforces to engage with the growing influence of the peoples, cultures, and societies both within and beyond Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the first book to subject to critical scrutiny and analysis the concepts, policies, and practices of schooling involved in building intercultural relations with the diverse contemporary manifestations of ‘Asia’. It brings into dialogue scholars who are at the forefront of current thinking, policy, and practice on Asia-related schooling, and contributes to a broader, international debate about the future shape of intercultural schooling in a global world. \u003ci\u003eAsia Literate Schooling in the Asian Century\u003c\/i\u003e offers chapters on:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Learning Asia: In search of a new narrative\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Asia Literacy as Experiential Learning\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Professional Standards and Ethics in Teaching Asia Literacy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• The Feasibility of Implementing Cross-Curricular Studies of Asia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Deparochialising Education and the Asian Priority: A Curriculum (Re)Imagination\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book will appeal to scholars and practitioners in Education and is suitable as a reference for teacher education courses.
