ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the complex conditions of the curricular landscapes navigated by teachers and students as they encounter Asia-related curriculum in the disciplines of Languages and History. It provides a central axis that captures and represents the ‘here-and-now’ experiences of key curriculum stakeholders, and connects the effects of the historical emergence of Asia as an object of curriculum to ensuing questions around future directions and possibilities of Asia curriculum. The impression that Asia learning might not garner much support beyond their discipline was reiterated by other teachers of Asian languages. Students acknowledged that decision-making for or against Asia learning could be informed by a variety of reasons and motivations.
