East Meets West: The Role of Chinese Culture and Language in Global Education

The theme for the 2008 CAERDA Conference is “East Meets West: The Role of Chinese Culture and Language in Global Education.” Within this broad conference theme, we are particularly interested in research in the following sub-theme areas:

Sub-theme 1: Teaching and learning of Chinese language in the U.S. and other non-Chinese-speaking nations, particularly in elementary and public schools, colleges, and universities; Sub-theme 2: Experiences of children of Chinese immigrant families in learning and adapting to education and school systems in the U.S. and other non-Chinese-speaking nations; Sub-theme 3: Comparative studies of teaching and learning experiences of Chinese and non-Chinese students in various academic subjects under the influence of cultures and languages. We also welcome research on these topics with not only Chinese languages and cultures but also other Asian cultures and languages.
