Abstract "This essential Handbook presents international research on rural and remote education. With contributions from authors across Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe and the Americas, the Handbook on Rural and Remote Education explores major challenges in diverse contexts and suggests innovative strategies for future development. Expert scholars discuss educational policy and practice within remote settings, drawing on case studies ranging from small village schools in Northern Ireland to Indigenous education in Australia. Chapters outline the barriers to learning that are presented by rural education from early childhood to later life, focusing on critical issues relating to teaching, leadership, and the roles of education in community, economic, and workforce development processes. Highlighting innovative practices for addressing unique educational needs, this timely Handbook offers cutting-edge insights into the delivery of effective and equitable education for students in remote and rural schools and communities. Students and academics in education, education policy, inequality studies, sociology and geography will benefit from this comprehensive exploration of rural and remote learning. The Handbook is also an invaluable resource for educational policymakers and practitioners looking for new ways to support rural and remote schools and communities"-- Provided by publisher.
