Description & Coverage
Description:

We recently published the Handbook of Research on Critical Issues and Global Trends in International Education via IGI. We are currently interested in providing a follow up volume that captures more issues and trends in alignment with the experiences of International educators worldwide. The book will cover a wide range of topics, including equity and access, diversity, teacher retention, legal frameworks, school typology, governance, cultural competence, third culture kids, leadership and practice, technology, and parent engagement. Written by educational professionals, researchers, and anthropologists, it offers a unique collection of voices from those with lived experiences in this field, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the international school sector.
