Early Childhood Education in Chinese Societies, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2017 International Perspectives on Early Childhood Education and Development Series, Vol. 19

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Rao Nirmala, Zhou Jing, Sun Jin

Couverture de l’ouvrage Early Childhood Education in Chinese Societies
This book provides an up-to-date account of relevant early childhood policy and practice in five Chinese societies: the People?s Republic of China or Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao, Singapore, and Taiwan. It analyses how traditional Chinese values, Eastern and Western curricular approaches, and socio-political, economic, cultural and demographic changes influence current policies, services and practice. It addresses responses to global concerns about the excluded and disadvantaged, and about quality, and explains lessons from and for Chinese early childhood education. 

This book is the first English-language research-based review of early childhood education and the factors that affect it in different Chinese societies. It is particularly timely given the increased recognition of the importance of early childhood education for human capital development globally, and the international interest in understanding early education in Chinese societies.iv>
