International Schools in a Changing World (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

International education in the context of international schools has expanded rapidly in recent years, prompting renewed scrutiny of its philosophical foundations, curricular assumptions, and professional practices.

This edited collection explores the contemporary challenges and opportunities arising as international schools evolve from serving globally mobile expatriate families to educating growing numbers of host country students seeking academically rigorous, internationally recognised qualifications. Bringing together leading experts from nine countries, the volume explores how international schools interpret and enact international education in increasingly complex cultural, political, and socioeconomic environments. Chapters explore key issues shaping the future of the sector, including globalisation, decolonisation, sustainability, climate change, conflict, artificial intelligence, and widening inequalities, offering research¿informed perspectives on curriculum, pedagogy, leadership, governance, and school culture. By bridging academic scholarship and lived professional experience, the book highlights how international schools are responding to shifting expectations while contributing to broader debates about the nature and purpose of international education.

Providing up¿tödate insights into a rapidly developing field, this volume is essential reading for researchers and postgraduate students in international and comparative education, as well as for teachers, leaders and policymakers working within international school contexts.
