Abstract
This issue of the 'Asia Pacific Media Educator' is dedicated to Professor Joseph Ascroft, who served as the mentor for several authors in this issue. Professor Emeritus Joseph Raymond Ascroft was born in 1934 in Blantyre, Malawi to John and Frances Ascroft. His childhood saw him move with his parents and sister, Clare to Rhodesia (Zimbabwe), before travelling to Cape Town, South Africa, at age 12 years where he spent the next 10 years furthering his education. During his first year of university at The University of Cape Town, apartheid was introduced; he was not allowed to pursue his dream of studying to become an architect, and instead he graduated with a degree in social work, one of the few subjects available to a coloured man at that time.
本期“亚太媒体教育家”献给约瑟夫·阿斯克罗夫特教授，他曾担任本期几位作者的导师。名誉教授Joseph Raymond Ascroft 1934年出生于马拉维布兰太尔，父母是John和Frances Ascroft。童年时，他与父母和妹妹克莱尔搬到了罗德西亚（津巴布韦），12岁时前往南非开普敦，在那里度过了接下来的10年，继续接受教育。在开普敦大学的第一年里，种族隔离制度被引入；他没有被允许追求成为一名建筑师的梦想，相反，他毕业时获得了社会工作学位，这是当时有色人种为数不多的科目之一。
期刊介绍：
Asia Pacific Media Educator is an international refereed journal published twice a year by SAGE Publications (New Delhi) in collaboration with the School of the Arts, English and Media, Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts, University of Wollongong in Australia. The journal follows international norms and procedures of blind peer reviewing by scholars representing a wide range of multi-disciplinary areas. APME focuses on generating discussions and dialogues among media educators, researchers and journalists. Content ranges from critical commentaries and essays to research reports and papers that contribute to journalism theory development and offer innovative ideas in improving the standard and currency of media reportage, teaching and training specific to the Asia Pacific region. Papers that integrate media theories with applications to professional practice, media training and journalism education are usually selected for peer review. APME also carries a Q&A section with book authors. APME takes conventional book reviews to a more creative level where reviewers directly engage with authors to understand the process that authors take in researching and writing the book, clarify their assumptions and pose critical questions.
