As well, the Chinese Classics Series presents well known titles such as The Art of War and The Sayings of Confucius.

We expect that the titles seen here will be available for purchase in the spring of 2010. Come back soon to get your fix of amazing tales from China.

Cross Cultural Teaching Teams provides a glimpse into a fascinating new opportunity for teachers in the current era of globalization of education. The author, a Canadian teacher working at an International School in China, details his cooperative efforts with a local Chinese geography teacher to enhance geographic learning and achievement via what he terms a Cross Cultural Teaching Team (CCTT). This book examines the progression from the Chinese geography program to the Canadian geography program, identifies areas of difficulty specific to Offshore School students, and finally provides a model for Cross Cultural Teaching Teams. Based on rigorous research, this book reveals significant insights into areas of difficulty for offshore students studying Western curriculum but suggests that some of these difficulties may be overcome via Cross Cultural Teaching Teams.
