About this book
Reviews
Daily, more and more higher education is crossing borders of space and time. Students are traveling abroad for education, or linking themselves to the world via the internet. Teachers are migrating from one continent to another. Transnational projects between educational systems in different countries are expanding. In Education Across Borders: Politics, Policy, and Legislative Action, James Fegan, Malcolm Field and more than twenty other leading educators, administrators, and researchers from across the globe examine the recent achievements of, and obstacles to, cross-border education, and assess future possibilities and problems. These thoughtful, practical essays remind us that education is not steady-state, and that the changes we are seeing in our local schools and universities are linked inevitably to developments in the wider world of trans-national education.
