“Native Speakers Do Not Understand Me”: A Phenomenological Study Of Student Experiences From Developing Asian Countries At An American University, Wolayat Tabasum Niroo, Mitchell R. Williams Apr 2022

“Native Speakers Do Not Understand Me”: A Phenomenological Study Of Student Experiences From Developing Asian Countries At An American University, Wolayat Tabasum Niroo, Mitchell R. Williams

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

International students from developing Asian countries where English is the second and foreign language are marginalized in some American Universities due to language barriers. Native English speakers often assume that whoever comes to the United States should be able to speak and write English perfectly. In developing Asian countries, such as South Asia, however, the English language belongs to the families of the Middle and Upper classes. They can get admission in English spoken countries’ higher education institutions. However, when those students come to English-speaking countries, they feel othered, left alone, and disappointed. This study utilizes a phenomenological research method …

Over the past few years, both Hungarian and Chinese governments have started to prioritize raising international student mobility to enhance countries’ competitiveness at the global level. This article outlines the definition of higher education internationalization to provide a comprehensive understanding of this term.

The Future Of International Educational Exchange Is Bright, Allen E. Goodman, Mirka Martel Apr 2022

The Future Of International Educational Exchange Is Bright, Allen E. Goodman, Mirka Martel

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

The future of international education and academic student and scholar exchange is bright. Though the term “virtual” transformed from an adverb to a noun since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic two years ago, our belief is that international educational exchange in all its forms will continue. This essay outlines the importance and need for internationalization on U.S. higher education campuses throughout and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic, learnings from the last two years from U.S. higher education institutions, and critical considerations regarding the future of international educational exchange.

Neo-Colonialism In Distance Learning In Barbados And Canada, Monika Z. Moore

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

This study reviews the literature on the evolution of distance learning in Barbados and Canada’s higher education systems in the context of their unique geographies and colonialism. First, postmodern concerns about what is “good” in education (Slaughter, 2001) are considered, followed by a brief discussion of the role of distance learning in neo-colonialism. Next, the evolution of Barbados and Canada’s higher education systems within the colonial context is described, setting the stage for the development of distance learning. Both countries’ roles within the Commonwealth of Learning organization are compared and used to locate neo-colonial patterns. This analysis highlights risks and …


Cyber Divided: How Taiwanese International Students Make Identity Boundaries Within Social Network Sites, Kenneth Han Chan Apr 2022

Cyber Divided: How Taiwanese International Students Make Identity Boundaries Within Social Network Sites, Kenneth Han Chan

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

Cyberspace has become a fixture of contemporary higher education institutions. When facing challenges seeking admission to a foreign university, international students often resort to online resources for guidance. By engaging in these online activities, international students develop a sense of community and identity. Despite recent advancement, existing studies on digital space and international students often fail to address the contentious nature of the community-forming process. Using digital ethnography and interviews, I studied an online forum for Taiwanese international students, STUDYABROAD, to delineate how social networking sites (SNSs) help reinforce group boundaries relating to different class traits and individual characteristics. International …


The "Entrepreneurial University”: A Catalyst For The Redevelopment Of The Azerbaijani Higher Education System, Jasarat Valehov, Bernhard Streitwieser Apr 2022

The "Entrepreneurial University”: A Catalyst For The Redevelopment Of The Azerbaijani Higher Education System, Jasarat Valehov, Bernhard Streitwieser

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

The notion of the “Entrepreneurial University” refers to a type of educational institution that enhances university-industry cooperation, applies innovative learning methods, and promotes multidisciplinary approaches. This article explores new challenges that Azerbaijani universities have faced as part of the Azerbaijani higher education transformation in the post-Soviet period. The research investigated the experiences of Western-style universities that have been building relationships with Western partners with substantial leadership experience in university innovation and, specifically, in establishing entrepreneurial universities. This paper argues that Azerbaijan's transition to a knowledge economy will require a substantive transformation of the country’s higher education system and, as such, …

Critical Pedagogy For Health Professions And International Learning Experiences, Courtney Queen, Sarah Schiffecker, Valerie Osland Paton Apr 2022

Critical Pedagogy For Health Professions And International Learning Experiences, Courtney Queen, Sarah Schiffecker, Valerie Osland Paton

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

Experiential and community-based learning is common in health sciences education as a transition from conceptual level coursework to application of learning at the practical and practice levels. Programs typically focus on knowledge acquisition and obtaining a conceptual level understanding of the material for the initial curriculum, followed by experiential learning and application of that conceptual knowledge in a clinical setting. To address the nuances of health sciences education in the international, community-based context, this study proposes a pathway to facilitating the adoption of a new critical pedagogy accounting for an increasingly globalized and connected world and the need for mediation …


The Smell, The Emotion, And The Lebowski Shock:What Virtual Education Abroad Cannot Do?, Wei Liu, David Sulz, Gavin Palmer Apr 2022

The Smell, The Emotion, And The Lebowski Shock:What Virtual Education Abroad Cannot Do?, Wei Liu, David Sulz, Gavin Palmer

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

In response to the international mobility challenge during the COVID-19 pandemic, many institutions have tried to shift to virtual programs in an attempt to provide continued education abroad experiences. This situation has amplified discussions about online education abroad programs as a way to address some equity issues in the internationalization of higher education. However, there seem to be few discussions about differences between physical and virtual programing with regard to students’ intercultural learning experiences. Fundamentally, what dimensions of traditional education abroad programs can and cannot be replicated by online programing? Through a narrative inquiry with three international educators on their …


Faculty Experiences Of Higher Education Internationalization In Post-Conflict Iraq And Tajikistan, Hayfa Jafar, Emma Sabzalieva Apr 2022

Faculty Experiences Of Higher Education Internationalization In Post-Conflict Iraq And Tajikistan, Hayfa Jafar, Emma Sabzalieva

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

As Iraq and Tajikistan recover from the impact of conflict and international isolation, spaces are being created for higher education to internationalize by opening up and (re)connecting with the international academic community. Drawing on 25 field-based interviews, this article examines how academics in these two countries interpret these processes of higher education internationalization. Four main themes emerged: bridging the gap created by conflict, reconnecting with the world, importing prestige, and integrating into the international academic community. Most respondents viewed internationalization processes positively even while recognizing that national political and economic factors are constraining how these processes develop.


International Doctoral Students’ Sense Of Belonging, Mental Toughness, And Psychological Well-Being, Shaoan Zhang, Chengcheng Li, Daniel L. Unger Apr 2022

International Doctoral Students’ Sense Of Belonging, Mental Toughness, And Psychological Well-Being, Shaoan Zhang, Chengcheng Li, Daniel L. Unger

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

This study describes international doctoral students’ experiences and examines the relationships between their academic goals and psychological well-being and their sense of belonging and mental toughness. We used a multiple case study design based on three international doctoral students enrolled in education programs in the United States. Findings from six interviews about their experiences with their faculty mentors and peers showed that their sense of belonging and mental toughness related to academic goals and psychological well-being. Their sense of belonging impacted their academic goals or psychological well-being based on communication and relationships with their mentors and support from their peers. …


What A Difference A Zoom Makes: Intercultural Interactions Between Host And International Students, Helen Collins, David Callaghan Apr 2022

What A Difference A Zoom Makes: Intercultural Interactions Between Host And International Students, Helen Collins, David Callaghan

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

International students contribute to the academic and cultural life of universities yet they often face discrimination and isolation. Studies highlight that support from the host students can make the difference between an easy or difficult transition. This article is part of a larger project about host student perceptions of international students. Initial analysis indicated that social interactions among international and host students do not become intertwined informally and work best through planned interventions. During the pandemic institutions transitioned from face-to-face to online learning using zoom. We noticed a marked increase in interaction among students online and returned to our research …


The Quest To Increase Diversity At The University Of Oxford, Jeffery L. Wilson Feb 2022

The Quest To Increase Diversity At The University Of Oxford, Jeffery L. Wilson

Journal of Comparative & International Higher Education

In this paper, an understanding of how an elite institution pursues diversity initiatives is explored. Research afforded a better understanding of strategies adopted for recruitment and retention whereby positive results were reported after implementation. Removing barriers that may prevent marginalized populations from enrolling were critical towards these efforts. Oxford has taken steps to increase diversity, and it appears they are having modest success. One method that has been an asset is to invite students to spend time on campus through residential programs. Additional efforts underway to increase diversity include an intensive urban recruitment initiative and securing school/parent/community buy-in. Venturing into …
