This text is a go-to resource for those wanting to broaden their
knowledge and critical understanding of how international education can
be transformed in the future based on theory and research.
The core focus of the book is to enable the reader to critically reflect
on the role of education in a future global society where justice,
equality, and renewal are central features. Each chapter explores an
alternative approach to education, including:
- Approaches grounded in indigenous cultures and ancient wisdom
traditions, as well as those from radical perspectives on the role of
society and culture
- Reconsidered interpretations of current approaches based on critical
theories and alternative ways of knowing and understanding
- Exploration of the role of technology in providing access to education
in a world where learning moves beyond fixed locations and boundaries
- Reflection on current learning environments populated by new global
communities.
Aimed primarily at undergraduate students in education, Pedagogies for
the Future also gives voice to new and ancient narratives of hope and
renewal which are vital for postgraduate study and initial teacher
education and training, as well as education policymakers.
