Asia Pacific Journal of Education

• In Event: Journal Talks 3

Abstract

Established in 1996 at the National Institute of Education, Singapore, the Asia Pacific Journal of Education is Asia's leading educational foundation and policy journal. It was relaunched as a full-fledged journal with an international reach by Taylor and Francis/Routledge in 2005. It is a platform for the critical analysis and review of these processes. The journal has been accepted into the Social Sciences Citation Index and is the first major Asian education journal to be indexed.

Key issues include: cultural and linguistic continuity and change; ethnicity, class, gender and diversity in education; systems and infrastructure development; cultures and structures of educational organisations; educational policy responses; migrant and indigenous education; historical and current educational relationships between Asian and Pacific countries and systems; relationships with the educational ideas and systems of the ""North"" and ""West""; and the impacts of new communications media and technologies, new and hybrid cultural forms and practices, and globalised economies on education.
