Equity, identity and social justice. 330 3 $aEducation in Asia Pacific countries is being transformed by globalisation and the market economy. Most economies within the region have flourished due to increased regional capital flow, trade and other forms of economic and political interaction. The Asia Pacific also has rich and unique traditions, which create cultural diversity as well as common challenges, including obstacles of language and geographical separation. Additionally, there is a growing reaction to the predominance of Western social theories that is fuelling recognition of and movement towards theories that reference the wide range of contextual and cultural perspectives available in the East. Contributors offer Eastern-oriented perspectives on teacher education, parent participation, government withdrawal, textbook content, uses of modern technology, the challenges of migrating families and tertiary students who travel from overseas for study. Their commentaries highlight issues of equity, identity and social justice. 606 $aEducation$zAsia. 606 $aEducation$zPacific Area 606 $aTeaching$zAsia 610 $aLanguages 610 $aeducation in Asia Pacific 610 $aeducation 610 $aEnglish as a Second Language 610 $aESL 610 $aTeaching science in Bangladesh 610 $apolitics and education 610 $asocial equity and education 610 $asocial justice and education 610 $aparental influence on education 610 $aculture in education 610 $acultural influences on education 610 $acultural influences on learning 610 $aAsia-Pacific 610 $aAustralia 610 $aChina 610 $aPedagogy 615 0$aEducation 615 0$aEducation 615 0$aTeaching 676 $a370 700 $aChan$b Philip Wing Keung$4auth$01373079 702 $aChan$b Philip Wing Keung 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910219865703321 996 $aAsia Pacific education$93403961 997 $aUNINA
