Exploring Leadership Through International Education: Civic Learning Through Study Abroad In Uganda, Rebecca Hovey, Adam Weinberg, Carol Bellamy
Exploring Leadership Through International Education: Civic Learning Through Study Abroad In Uganda, Rebecca Hovey, Adam Weinberg, Carol Bellamy
Rebecca Hovey
Leadership education in the 21st century cannot ignore the global risks, opportunities and realities of our interconnected world; so too international education cannot avoid its responsibility to provide the knowledge and vision needed to resolve critical issues we will face as a global community. We argue that a model of international education is needed which acknowledges the diverse global community in which institutions are based and learning takes place. In linking leadership and international education, we propose an alternative approach to both based on recognition, reciprocity and responsibility toward others.
Global Learning Through Partnered Inquiry, Rebecca Hovey
Global Learning Through Partnered Inquiry, Rebecca Hovey
Rebecca Hovey
The emergence of Global Learning associated with the internationalization of U.S. higher education signals a convergence of international/global studies and international education with the potential to dramatically innovate and transform the academy. Over the past decade the original aim of international education to foster intercultural understanding has become linked with the aims of international studies to enhance our knowledge of the world, and in particular, the ways in which new knowledge is created through non-western epistemologies and cultural perspectives. This paper seeks to situate the emerging discourse and initiatives around global learning in an understanding of the transformation potential of …
The Ethnographic Experience: Experiential Learning Via Ethnographic Practice, Rebecca Hovey
The Ethnographic Experience: Experiential Learning Via Ethnographic Practice, Rebecca Hovey
Rebecca Hovey
Ethnography and experiential learning share assumptions on the primacy of everyday lived experience for learning culture. This presentation offers perspectives on ethnography as pedagogy for cultural learning through demonstration of ethnographic inquiry, discussion of pre-departure preparation for field work, and faculty reflections on students’ experiential learning.
Institutional And International Community Development: World Learning/Sit Case Study, Rebecca Hovey
Institutional And International Community Development: World Learning/Sit Case Study, Rebecca Hovey
Rebecca Hovey
In this workshop we posed the question: How to engage with/build partnerships or solidarity with communities in Global Service-Learning? This case study describes SIT Study Abroad programs as a form of community-based education: integrating community members as mentors, educators and part of the local “faculty”. This has profound implications in terms of academic content, knowledge generation, who benefits from the projects and accumulated knowledge gained from field service, and the global citizen responsibilities of the home university in terms of fair intellectual property and labor.
Study Abroad, Global Knowledge And The Epistemic Communities Of Higher Education, Rebecca Hovey
Study Abroad, Global Knowledge And The Epistemic Communities Of Higher Education, Rebecca Hovey
Rebecca Hovey
International education and study abroad change the boundaries of who is included in the community of US higher education as more and more colleges and universities incorporate mission statements with aspirations of global citizenship. I argue that this changing frame of the community, moral purpose and appreciation of different worldviews has profound and significant implications for the academic and professional disciplines that constitute the academy. The impact of study abroad can be – and perhaps with a new generation of scholars will be – an epistemological shift within the disciplines to include both new modes of knowledge acquisition as well …

Study Abroad in nontraditional locations is a growing trend in international education. This chapter in the NAFSA guide covers academic, institutional and operational aspects of "whole world study".
Critical Pedagogy And International Studies: Reconstructing Knowledge Through Dialogue With The Subaltern, Rebecca Hovey
Critical Pedagogy And International Studies: Reconstructing Knowledge Through Dialogue With The Subaltern, Rebecca Hovey
Rebecca Hovey
The emerging trend and pressure for higher education to internationalize the curriculum, meet the challenges of globalization and prepare students for global citizenship is identified as the "global turn" in education. Critical pedagogy offers a theoretical framework in which we can imagine students and teachers in dialogue with knowing subjects other cultures and locations with the aim of creating a global community of knowledge production.
