The contributors from China and Hong Kong represent a mixture of established and new scholars.  Areas covered in the language education section range across major developments in the redefining of Hong Kong’s secondary and tertiary curricula, as well as the huge field of China’s vocational education curriculum. Regarding assessment, the contributions reflect major changes in the marking of examinations in Hong Kong, whereby all examinations from 2012 onwards are marked onscreen, to quality control issues in the administration of China’s College English Test, which is taken by over 10 million candidates every year.International education Comparative educationProfessional educationVocational educationLanguage and educationAssessmentEducational policyEducation and stateInternational and Comparative Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O13000Professional & Vocational Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O35000Language Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O23000Assessment, Testing and Evaluationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O33000Educational Policy and Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O19000International education .Comparative education.Professional education.Vocational education.Language and education.Assessment.Educational policy.Education and state.International and Comparative Education.Professional & Vocational Education.Language Education.Assessment, Testing and Evaluation.Educational Policy and Politics.428.0071428.00710951Coniam Davidedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910485023403321English Language Education and Assessment2844017UNINA
