Education in Asia And The Pacific: Reviews, Reports, and Notes.

Overview & Synopsis

Adequate technological education among schools in Asia is a major concern for educators and administrators. Many worry that the lack of knowledge about technology may make them obsolete. Other concerns include the cost of maintaining up to date technology and training. Many Asian educational systems today struggle to provide current technology such as software, hardware, and other electronic devices that students will need for their future. This publication reviews recent publications related to technological education by focusing on areas where educators are trying to upgrade their systems. The volume examines the topics of education perspectives, world education, innovations of information media, environmental education, Indonesian education, adolescence education, educational culture, and vocational education in developing countries. Annotated Asia/Pacific documents are listed and a 32-item bibliography of additional documents is presented. (JAG)
