Economic globalization and advanced communication and transportation technologies have greatly increased interconnectivity and integration of China with the rest of the world. This book explores the impact of globalization on China and the interactions of Chinese education with the globalized world. It consists of twenty chapters which collectively examine how globalization unfolds on the ground in Chinese education through global flows of talents, information, and knowledge. The authors, established and emerging scholars from China and internationally, analyze patterns and trends of China’s engagement with the globalized world as well as tensions between the global and local concerning national education sovereignty and the widening gap between brain gain and brain drain. The book covers a wide range of topics, including: Internationalization of Chinese educationStudent mobility and intercultural adaptationCross-cultural teaching and learningTransnational talent mobility The diverse concepts and perspectives represented in this volume provide rich accounts of the effects of globalization on Chinese education and how globalization has transformed Chinese education and society. China’s successes and challenges will inform international researchers and educators about globalization and education in their own contexts with possible implications for change. “This timely volume opens up fascinating insights into the extensive and growing interconnections between Chinese education and the global community. Concepts such as identity, interculturality, transnationalism and double diaspora are given vivid expression in the experience of Chinese students and scholars in diverse global settings as well as that of international students and teachers in Chinese higher institutions. While there are candid critiques of barriers and prejudices that need to be overcome, there is also a sense of hope and dynamism in the rich outflowing of educational ideas rooted in China’s unique civilization. Editors Shibao Guo and Yan Guo are to be congratulated for bringing together such a remarkable collection of essays dealing with internationalization, student mobility, cross-cultural teaching and learning and transnational talent mobility.” – Ruth Hayhoe, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto

China’s rise, an increasing emphasis on international education benchmarking, and a global recognition of East Asian countries’ success in this regard have brought the issue of Chinese education to the forefront of public consciousness. In particular, the concept of a “Chinese education model” is one that has sparked debate and quickly become a major focus of education research around the world, especially in light of regional achievements vis-à-vis university rankings, bibliometric indices, the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), and other such benchmarks. Chinese Education Models in a Global Age tackles this controversial issue head on by synthesizing a diversity of analyses from a world-class team of twenty-seven authors. It reveals that Chinese education models, which are present in many different geographic and institutional contexts, have an important influence on social and institutional norms as well as individual belief systems and behaviors in China and beyond. The first of its kind, this edited volume establishes a foundation for future research while providing a nuanced and tightly integrated compilation of differing perspectives on the role and impact of Chinese education models worldwide. It is essential reading for all scholars, policymakers, students, parents, and educators interested in the rising demographic and economic influence of people of Chinese descent on education around the world.

On the practical level, it provides a broad historical and philosophical context within which the possibilities and dangers inherent in China's educational involvement with developed countries may be considered.

This book examines the rise of China’s global profile in the international higher education community, as indicated by its rise of human capital, visibility in academic publications, world university ranking, expanding international cultural influence, and becoming a study-abroad destination of international students. It identifies the diplomatic role of higher education in China’s politico-economic development over a century, and how the role has been shaped by China’s self-identity as a great power in the world. Higher Education and China's Global Rise provides an understanding of linkage between higher education and China’s international influence, and a scholarly discussion of what Chinese higher education tells about China’s international relations, especially the aims, means, and nature of China’s rise as a global power. It will help to broaden perspectives surrounding debate about China’s rise that is currently dominated by Western international relations theory and comparative higher education discourses.

The secrets behind China's extraordinary educational system – good, bad, and ugly Chinese students' consistently stunning performance on the international PISA exams— where they outscore students of all other nations in math, reading, and science—have positioned China as a world education leader. American educators and pundits have declared this a "Sputnik Moment," saying that we must learn from China's education system in order to maintain our status as an education leader and global superpower. Indeed, many of the reforms taking hold in United States schools, such as a greater emphasis on standardized testing and the increasing importance of core subjects like reading and math, echo the Chinese system. We're following in China's footsteps—but is this the direction we should take? Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Dragon? by award-winning writer Yong Zhao offers an entertaining, provocative insider's account of the Chinese school system, revealing the secrets that make it both "the best and worst" in the world. Born and raised in China's Sichuan province and a teacher in China for many years, Zhao has a unique perspective on Chinese culture and education. He explains in vivid detail how China turns out the world's highest-achieving students in reading, math, and science—yet by all accounts Chinese educators, parents, and political leaders hate the system and long to send their kids to western schools. Filled with fascinating stories and compelling data, Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Dragon? offers a nuanced and sobering tour of education in China. Learn how China is able to turn out the world's highest achieving students in math, science, and reading Discover why, despite these amazing test scores, Chinese parents, teachers, and political leaders are desperate to leave behind their educational system Discover how current reforms in the U.S. parallel the classic Chinese system, and how this could help (or hurt) our students' prospects

CAN NORWAY LEARN FROM CHINA? The book's purpose is to reach parents and grandparents worldwide, to inspire them to be conscious about the quality of their loved-ones' schooling. Parents and grandparents are more important than public authorities, teachers and researchers, to achieve successful school development. Quality education is the primary life insurance in a changing global world. From my experiences in Norway, East Asia, Finland and England, I present some ideas about how parents and grandparents can enhance school quality. China soon has the world's largest economy. Can a substantial explanation be the respect for knowledge and the population's strong willingness to learn? When China joined OECD's Pisa surveys (2009), Shanghai's 15-year-olds were top in the world. The same was the case in Pisa 2013. Chinese students abroad, are those that complete the fastest. Is effort in school work China's strongest soft power? Norway is a small, sparsely populated, super wealthy Scandinavian country. Historically, it had an excellent education system. That changed when the country switched to a US American curriculum model after World War II. Today the situation is worrying. Norway has rather low school quality objectively, and worse, relatively, when compared to amount of money used per student. Everybody has access to higher education, free of charge. Dropouts from higher education is increasing. In 2015, four out of ten university students dropped out. The nation's position in international education rankings is mediocre or poor. Norway is the only country in Europe where a majority of the population does not see education as an important value. A common opinion among those who analyse the global economic competition is that individuals and nations' level of knowledge is the power source number one. Importance of knowledge for individuals', companies' and nations' identity and mastery is the overall frame for this book. The education cultures in Norway and China today are opposites. My observations and comparisons during seventy years, as student, father, teacher and researcher have convinced me that Norway, and most other countries, can learn from the education culture of East Asia. In this culture, there is an enormous respect for learning and knowledge. An education system where students show strong motivation for learning and respect for teachers is the super soft power of economically successful East Asian countries. Quality of education will decide their competitive power in the increasingly global knowledge economy. The educational and economic success of East Asian countries triggered my curiosity for their curriculum roots. I found the moral philosopher Confucius, the thousand years old Imperial Examination, and a recent Chinese history of education as a key means to safeguard people's identity, while simultaneously learning science and technology from the West. I came across a number of amazingly dynamic and patriotic individuals, often poor before turning rich, and then using their private wealth to build schools and universities of quality, for the public. At the very individual level of this travelogue, I tell about how my family and I met with two elite schools in China, one international and one Chinese. Both were established by a poor waitress having turned billionaire. In my concluding reflections, I look at what Norway and many other countries can learn from China, Finland and England. The three countries' common denominator is high education quality, despite different curriculum traditions. We can take the best from each of them and create an optimal quality school for all.
