Opis

A battle is being waged in classrooms and capitals around the world over the goals and objectives of the future of global education. While there is growing research in the area of global education, much remains to be uncovered, challenged, and learned through sound empirical research and conceptual explorations.　What type of global citizens will schools promote?　What types of policies, programs and instructional practices best promote effective global citizenship?　Will global education curricula advance an unwavering loyalty to neoliberal ideologies and interests over the strengthening of human rights and the environmental health of our planet?　This volume presents a series of research studies and innovative instructional practices centered on advancing global learning opportunities and literacies.
