This book is the first of its kind to showcase a range of fresh and expert perspectives on decolonising history education in Australia.

First-hand knowledge and much-needed teaching practices are presented, demonstrating how de...

The Asia Literacy Dilemma
The Asia literacy dilemma brings forward a novel approach to the long-standing global debates of Asia-related teaching and learning.

St Helena
A guidebook for true explorers, the south Atlantic islands of St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha are isolated and therefore a fascinating destination for travellers who enjoy a completely different vacation. Their remote location has led to a host of endemic plant species and large seabird colonies, meaning the islands appeal to botanists and birdwatchers the world over.
Curriculum Innovation in East Asian Schools
Following closely behind the global pandemic’s recent forced challenges to schools and teachers, Xu gives an overview of how educational researchers and schools in Asia respond to challenges in times of change.

In this book, curriculum innovation is documented in three themes: 21st-century skills and competency-based curriculum, technology-supported curriculum and equity in curriculum. Xu includes three types of chapters: (1)...
Teachers’ Journeys into International School Teaching in China
Poole’s book illuminates the experiences and perspectives of host country national teachers at internationalised schools in China. The international school sector in China has undergone significant changes in recent years. This is due to the growing demand for international education from local middle-class families.

Going by various names, such as private, bilingual or internationalised, these schools offer a fusion of national and international curricula and are staffed predominantly by host country national teachers. Despite these changes, we still know little about who host country national teachers are and what draws them to the world of ...
