Nurturing Glocal Talents, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A timely contribution to the study of transnational higher education in China, this volume focuses on graduate employability and how to nurture Glocal Talents via Glocalized Higher Education, specifically in the context of transnational higher education programmes and transnational universities.

Offering readers a background on the conceptualization of glocal talents, education policy frameworks of glocalized higher education and the approaches to cultivating the desired talents in and beyond China, Part I of the book suggests various practical models and frameworks for nurturing glocal talents in different regions and universities. In Part II, the authors use a focal case study to present in-depth investigations into leadership, formal and informal curricula, and employability of graduates from the Sino-Foreign Cooperative Education Institution (SFCEI). The book makes an argument for how glocal talents should be better equipped to fit into a profession or an environment that requires the critical mindset and competence to bring the global, national, and local into individual relationships for sustainable development of mankind. This comprehensive investigation into every section of glocal knowledge and visions provides readers a clear picture on how glocal talents could be practically nurtured through glocalized higher education.

Due to its unique exploration of the visions and practices of the leaders, academics, curriculum designers, and practitioners in the specific context of the more than 2000 SFCEIs, this is a must-read for students, researchers, policymakers, and leaders, as well as formal and informal curriculum designers involved in international higher education (IHE), comparative education, and educational research.
