“…Research focuses on all educational levels, from preschool through higher education, and sometimes also includes sites outside of the formal educational system. Representative work in this trajectory includes Kathryn Anderson-Levitt’s (2004) research on reading instruction in Guinea, France, and the United States; Wing-Wah Law’s (1995) comparison of the role of the state in higher education reform; school choice policies in the United Kingdom and the United States (Bondi, 1991); the role of the small state in higher education (Crossley & Louisy, 1994); and the implementation of multicultural education in Australia and the Netherlands (Leeman & Reid, 2006).…”

Until recently, international education has existed at the margins of educational research. However, in the current context of globalization, international education has moved closer to the center of educational research throughout the world. In this article, the authors identify, describe, and analyze six distinct research approaches to international education: comparative and international education, internationalization of higher education, international schools, international research on teaching and teacher education, internationalization of K-12 education, and globalization of education. Within each approach, the authors discuss the historical context and the global political, economic, social, and cultural shifts that have shaped the research approach; map the major research trajectories that have developed; discuss the audience and research community; and analyze strengths and weaknesses. The authors conclude with a discussion of emergent trends within research in international education.

Bradford (1990), the Manchester geographer, also published on school choice, while Bondi (1991) presented a comparative study of the effects of aspects of school choice in the UK and USA, as did Edwards and Whitty (1992).…”
