Globalisation and education futures: Globalization and Hong Kong educational reforms

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapters

Abstract

In a context of globalization, the experiences of educational reforms in Hong Kong particularly in the past decade may provide a good case for understanding the dynamics of educational reforms and drawing theoretical and practical implications for research, policy formulation and implementation not only in Hong Kong and in other international communities. Based on the observations in Hong Kong and the Region, this book chapter analyzes the reform syndrome, bottle-neck effects and their impacts on teachers and school education and highlight the direction of new developments. Copyright © 2024 The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
