This title maps and discusses the increasing internationalization of teaching and learning at universities around the world. This phenomenon brings both opportunities and challenges, as it introduces what can be radically different teaching, learning and assessment contexts for both students and staff.

Recenzje

"Anyone looking closely at pedagogy and curriculum issues in transnational or non-Anglophile higher education contexts in particular needs to jump feet first into this book. The book presents and explores a wide range of inter-related complex issues concerning cross-cultural teaching and learning. For all educators working to internationalise teaching, learning policy and practice, this collection of authoritative writing offers pragmatic strategies and useful research findings to enable informed debate, consideration of the ideas and challenges of internationalisation and guidance on implementation strategies. The book provides the basis for acting with confidence in this challenging field".- John Senior, Gifted Education International
