Evaluation and Utilization of Bioethanol Fuels. II.
The sixth volume of this handbook provides an overview of the research on the country-based experience of bioethanol fuels at large, Chinese, US, and European experience of bioethanol fuels, production of bioethanol fuel-based biohydrogen fuels for fuel cells, bioethanol fuel cells, and bioethanol fuel-based biochemicals with a collection of 17 chapters. Thus, it complements the fifth volume of this handbook. Hence, the sixth volume indicates that the research on the evaluation and utilization of bioethanol fuels has intensified in recent years to become a major part of the bioenergy and biofuels research together primarily with biodiesel, biohydrogen, and biogas research as a sustainable alternative to crude oil-based gasoline and petrodiesel fuels as well as natural gas and syngas. This book is intended for students, researchers, engineers, policy makers, economist, business managers, and social scientists, working on the production, utilization and evaluation of bioethanol fuels.
How Do Teachers Learn Together?
Based on case studies of Chinese teachers in Shanghai and their workplace learning within the context of reform, this book examines how Chinese teachers learn together when they engage in school-based learning activities. Since the New Curriculum Reform in China in 2001, school-based teaching research groups (TRGs) (Jiaoyanzu) have played an important role in changing teacher learning approaches. Informed by organizational learning frameworks and organizational knowledge theory, the author examines the processes and effects of teacher learning in school-based settings, particularly the role of school leadership in the learning and change of in-service teachers. Implications of sustainably optimizing the school-based teacher learning communities for school improvement are also discussed. The book will be helpful and valuable for policymakers, school leaders, researchers, students, teachers, and other educational practitioners in understanding the distinctive features of school-based teachers’ learning in China.
Citizenship and Education in Contemporary China
A key objective of education in China is to cultivate one's moral values, with the ultimate objective of becoming fully human (做人). Unlike the "West", which regards moral cultivation as related to but separate from citizenship cultivation, East Asia (including China) views moral and citizenship cultivation as synonymous. The essays in this book offer various perspectives on and understandings of Chinese citizenship and education by a group of scholars of Chinese heritage situated inside and outside of China. They offer compelling evidence and rich theoretical discussions about the practice of teaching citizenship in the state education, the interplay between citizenship and China's cultu...

Citizenship Education in China
There is a flourishing literature on citizenship education in China that is mostly unknown in the West. Liberal political theorists often assume that only in democracy should citizens be prepared for their future responsibilities, yet citizenship education in China has undergone a number of transformations as the political system has sought to cope with market reforms, globalization and pressures both externally and within the country for broader political reforms. Over the past decade, Chinese scholars have been struggling for official recognition of citizenship education as a key component of the school curriculum in these changing contexts. This book analyzes the citizenship education issues under discussion within China, and aims to provide a voice for its scholars at a time when China’s international role is becoming increasingly important.
