In a globalized, transnational, and technological world, where there has been an increase in people's mobility, information, and cultural exchanges, there is also a growing emphasis on personal and professional ethics. Against this context, life, moral, and values education has gained attention for its impact on shaping students' characters as future citizens. However, the cultivation of these values is made deeply diversified and complex by varying interpretations of life education and values education across societies, given that different societies are influenced by different socio-cultural traditions, educational ideologies, and religious beliefs. The means and approaches towards life education also vary vastly from formal school subjects, school-based programs, as well as teachers and peers' role modeling, community services, extracurricular activities, school discipline, charity work, pastoral care, and school ethos. Recognizing this inherent diversity and complexity in the approach to and the dissemination of life education, the contributors to this volume survey the practice of life education in Greater China so far, suggesting that life education is most effective when it is diversified, dynamic, and developmental across contexts. This book will provide the opportunity for engaging in important and serious debates about the future and the values that will underpin it and will prove of special interest to scholars and practitioners working on education policies, curriculum development, and teacher education in Greater China.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 580g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160 x 243 x 22 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367341466\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104649375994,"sku":"9780367341466","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/e13e8549d6375a0fed049f5f70a7ec97.jpg?v=1623213029","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/life-and-moral-education-in-greater-china","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
