Dr. Jun Li was invited to work as a visiting scholar at the Faculty of Education of Hong Kong University in 1996-1997 and at the Graduate School of Education of Tokyo University in 1997-1998 and 2000-2001, respectively. While gaining wide international experiences over many years, he has published three academic books and more than 50 journal articles/book chapters in Chinese, English and Japanese.
