Narrative Inquiry into Reciprocal Learning Between Canada-China Sister Schools: A Chinese Perspective: Intercultural Reciprocal Learning in Chinese and Western Education

Editat de Yuhua Bu
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 ian 2022
This edited volume explores how Chinese school-based educators learn from others and attain awareness in dialogue with the world in an era of increasing globalization and information exchange. Minzhu Primary School in Shanghai, China, and Bay Street School in Toronto, Canada, have been connected as sister schools of cross-cultural exchange since 2008. Together, they have explored ways to reciprocally learn in a cross-cultural partnership while remaining grounded in their home culture and language. In this book, chapter authors examine how Chinese school-based educators view themselves, understand others, and grow and develop as a consequence of a decade of cross-cultural reciprocal learning as sister schools. Further, the authors discuss prospects for future educational interactions between Canada and China.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“Every once and awhile, a book comes along that fills gaping holes in one’s knowing. Such was the case with Narrative Inquiry into Reciprocal Learning Between Canada-China Sister Schools: A Chinese Perspective. The volume was so engaging that I could not put it down. I read it in one sitting. It definitely is a mustread book because it illuminates—in vivid detail—intercultural experiences from a Chinese point of view.”
