This is a significant book as it adds to\nlimited discussions on the globalisation of learning debates, and scholarly\nreflections on the links between globalised processes and changing educational\npractices, critical to understanding the current challenges and options\navailable for charting future development for universities in the Asia-Pacific\nregion and beyond. It rejects an essentialising perspective that considers\nchanges as inevitable and uniform. Instead it considers negotiations,\narguments, and even resistance as competing forces and integral components of\nthe process of reforming pedagogical practices in Asia-Pacific universities.\nThis book discusses globalised processes as a new context for reforming\nlearning and teaching and its focused discussions cover topics including\nmeeting the needs of new student groups, new technological practices for\nchange, use of English as an international language, and challenges in\nassessment and quality assurance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-05-12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789811004292\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-981-10-0431-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 410\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47661478740108,"sku":"9789811004292","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789811004292.jpg?v=1776431464","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789811004292","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
