Transnational German Education and Comparative Education Systems cover

This insightful exploration of education systems compares Germany's transnational education with those of other countries, highlighting key lessons and challenges.

This book provides a comprehensive examination of transnational education, focusing on the comparative perspectives of education systems between Germany and various other nation states. Transnational German Education and Comparative Education Systems delves into how a transnational educational identity has emerged within both secondary and tertiary institutions in Germany, as well as in other national contexts. By analyzing this evolution, the book sheds light on the lessons that can be learned from the successes and challenges faced by these education systems today.

Through detailed case studies, the book encourages a critical rethinking of current educational practices in high schools and universities. It specifically addresses issues of race, gender, religion, and learner ability within educational settings, emphasizing the importance of inclusivity and equity in education. The insights provided in Transnational German Education and Comparative Education Systems aim to foster discussions about how educational practices can adapt to the needs of diverse learners in a globalized world.

Moreover, this work positions learning and teaching as vital arenas for exploring the opportunities presented by transnational education in the 21st century. By framing these discussions within the context of evolving discourses on transnationalism, the book highlights the significance of understanding and integrating diverse educational perspectives to enrich the learning experience.

“The robust impression of Germany’s transnational education provision from bilingual elementary schools to bilateral universities is a rich contribution that not only scholars of international and comparative education can enjoy. This book opens a range of viewpoints from which other countries’ TNE provision can be explored and investigated. … The Germans are on to something—and I hope international education practitioners and scholars read this book and allow it to provide them with thought-provoking impulses for their own institutional, national, and societal contexts.” (Jessica D. Schüller, Research in Comparative and International Education, September 21, 2020)
