Educational Practices in
Transnational Spaces
Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China
The purpose of the course is to enhance students’ understandings of globalization and its effects on California education. This summer course, offered in collaboration
with the University of Hong Kong, enables students to critically examine the trans-Pacific Chinese diaspora and recent educational developments in China, and to conduct cross-cultural observation and study. Students are able to combine theories and praxis by directly observing, comparing, and contrasting educational practices in the Bay Area with those in Southern China—one of the most
rapidly developing areas of the world. Students will receive
3 semester units of graduate credit.
The course is co-taught by Associate Dean David Hemphill, Associate Professor Ming-yeh Lee, and Dean Jacob Perea, in collaboration with faculty from the University of Hong Kong.
