Gene Luczkiw’s ideas and connections led to the formulation of Entreplexity® – his word for the complex face of entrepreneurial thought. He was contagion of curiosity who addressed his own questions and with the twist of a word or idea showed a creative dexterity that infected all those in his world. His professional and academic life cast him as a crusader for personal empowerment through teaching individuals to assume responsibility for their own life and to act in ways that were beneficial to themselves and others. He accomplished this and found ways to touch the lives of all he encountered. This volume begins with practice by chronicling the development and implementation of an Enterprise focus in a Bachelor of Education degree program. The second part of this book provides a deep and thoughtful grasp of academic and business theory grounding Gene’s approach to learning, teaching and life, in general. This work of an exceptional individual who adopted and developed entrepreneurial thought early on merits serious consideration in a changing world.

This collection of papers by a group of Chinese educational administrators came about through a graduate study program that facilitated comparisons of educational practices from other cultures against the backdrop of globalization. Collaborative international programs allow contrast and comparisons of practices, policies and educational principles but are not without barriers faced by candidates which can include but are not limited to culture shock and communication and language adjustments. Comparisons of international educational institutions are telling when examined through transfer credit policies, degree recognition, institutional accreditation and the value of academic credits in a globalized educational marketplace. China and Chinese educators recognize that movement and take it most seriously as demonstrated by the group of educational ambassadors who have contributed a variety of perspectives and interests to this volume. They are a new wave of thinkers whose studies embrace their native culture and open minds to alternative ways of understanding and acting on rapidly changing educational circumstances for learners, teachers and administrators.
