Chinese Education Models in a Global Age

Chuing Prudence Chou (周祝瑛)
received her PhD in Comparative and International Education from the University of California, Los Angeles, and is a professor in the Department of Education at National Chengchi University, Taiwan. Her research interests include comparative studies on international higher education reform, gender equity in education, and cultural exchange in rival states. She edited a book entitled The SSCI Syndrome in Higher Education: A Local or Global Phenomenon (2014), which touches upon the ongoing crisis caused by the world-class university rankings and makes a cogent argument for culturally-responsive research in the social sciences and humanities across the non-English speaking world.
