Synopsis

[ Published by Higher Education Publishing Co., Ltd. and Printed by CreateSpace ]

       This book is a collaborative product of an official project approved by the East-Asian Association for Science Education (EASE), one of the most important professional societies of science education in Asia.

       This EASE book is compiled with a unique approach. It consists of well-structured four sections:

   (A)The Historical Development of Science Education in East Asia,
   (B)The Achievements of Science Education Research in East Asia,
   (C)Science Teacher Training in East Asia, and
   (D)Some Challenges to Research in Science Education in East Asia.

       Its fifteen chapters are co-authored/collaborated by renowned scholars from regions of East Asia. The book successfully integrated and consolidated the research, findings, curricular developments, and science teaching practices that have shaped ongoing educational agenda and student learning outcome in an unprecedented approach.
       Six Regional Coordinators from Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan worked together with Editors and more than fifty science educators to assure the book project adequately reflects the trends and practices in this region. The six Regional Coordinators are:  

1. Prof. Weiping HU, Shaanxi Normal University,  
2. Prof. Winnie SO Wing Mui, The Education University of Hong Kong,  
3. Prof. Masakata OGAWA, Tokyo University of Science,  
4. Prof. Jinwoong SONG, Seoul National University,  
5. Prof. Huann-shyang LIN, National Sun Yat-sen University,  
6. Prof. Chi-jui LIEN, National Taipei University of Education.

      This book intends not only to serve as references, but also a complement of existing perspectives from western countries. Insights gained from the integration and consolidation of East-Asian developmental trends and perspectives would allow science educators, teachers, and policy makers make wise decision for future advancements for their own countries/regions.
