International Handbook on Education in Southeast Asia
Springer Verlag, Singapore
978-981-16-8135-6 (ISBN)
This International Handbook provides a detailed account of the education systems of 11 Southeast Asian nations, including Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor- Leste, and Vietnam. It presents a systematic sector-by-sector explanation of how these national education systems deliver educational services and respond to national and international issues and challenges. With 56 chapters, the International Handbook is the region’s most comprehensive educational reference source. In the first of its chapters, the editors introduce the regional context and draw attention to the distinctive characteristics of each of the 11 systems. Southeast Asia, representing 8.5% of the world’s population, is as dynamic as it is diverse. The International Handbook charts progress and establishes a benchmark for documenting future developments. It also provides a stepping-off point for more detailed investigations of decision-making processes and outcomes across the 11 national education systems.
