The confluence of transformative global events, including a pandemic, the repercussions of climate change through extreme weather, and widespread political instability has jolted educational systems, prompting a rapid overhaul of conventional teaching and learning approaches. The embrace of remote and hybrid learning models has exposed institutional vulnerabilities, compelling a reevaluation of adaptability, leadership, and management strategies. Amid this novel educational landscape, the urgency for effective solutions has grown, spotlighting the need to uphold educational standards, cultivate engagement, and provide steadfast leadership. Promoting Quality Hybrid Learning Through Leadership and Educational Management, edited by Edgar Oliver Cardoso Espinosa, emerges as a guiding compass. This book intricately dissects the interplay between leadership, educational management, and technology, offering a comprehensive panacea for the challenges inherent in hybrid learning models. Curated from the collective wisdom of scholars and practitioners, this book offers a roadmap for institutions, distilling invaluable insights on adept leadership techniques, effective management practices, and the seamless fusion of digital tools to enhance the educational experience. Beyond a mere volume, it serves as a transformative tool for educators, researchers, and leaders seeking to recalibrate education for contemporary demands, shaping immersive learning environments and instilling the confidence to navigate an evolving educational vista.

This book describes how different nations have defined the core competencies and skills that young people will need in order to thrive in the twenty-first-century, and how those nations have fashioned educational policies and curricula meant to promote those skills. The book examines six countries—Chile, China, India, Mexico, Singapore, and the United States—exploring how each one defines, supports, and cultivates those competencies that students will need in order to succeed in the current century. Teaching and Learning for the Twenty-First Century appears at a time of heightened attention to comparative studies of national education systems, and to international student assessments such as those that have come out of PISA (the Program for International Student Assessment), led by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. This book’s crucial contribution to the burgeoning field of international education arises out of its special attention to first principles—and thus to first questions: As Reimers and Chung explain, “much can be gained by an explicit investigation of the intended purposes of education, in what they attempt to teach students, and in the related questions of why those purposes and how they are achieved.” These questions are crucial to education practice and reform at a time when educators (and the students they serve) face unique, pressing challenges. The book’s detailed attention to such questions signals its indispensable value for policy makers, scholars, and education leaders today.
