||Asia Education||
✓Asian economies have experienced exceptional economic growth in recent decades. In the sphere of education, certain Asian countries have recently been ranked top in international surveys such as PISA. As a consequence, Asia is receiving increasing attention. Does Asia have its own education model(s) that the rest of the world would do well to better understand? Issue 68 of the Revue internationale d’éducation de Sèvres aims to cut through the received ideas and seek out the educational realities within this complex and multifaceted continent, which still faces considerable challenges. Based on an international conference organised in June 2014 at the CIEP, the issue draws on contributions by 45 academics from 18 countries and several disciplines. These rich and varied contributions examine the Asian education “miracle” and highlight the tensions at work, as well as the reasons for successes. This unique comparative perspective demonstrates that any reflection on the future of education in the world must now involve Asia.
