Online Teaching and Learning in Asian Higher Education - Pedagogical Approaches to Classroom Practices

This collection focuses on the challenges, lessons learned, and best teaching practices shared by educators in the higher education system in both the developed and developing areas of Asia. Organized into three sections, the book covers key factors that affect the successes of online education in Asia, including innovations in curriculum design; innovations in communicating with students; and innovations in assessments. In doing so, it provides educators important insights into the differences between teaching and learning in both the developed and developing areas of Asia and highlights the problems that still need to be addressed as technologies advance in the twenty-first century in STEM and non-STEM disciplines.
