Opis

The world has become a global village where the footprints of interdependence and connectiveness supersede those of independence and isolation. Increasing numbers of perspicacious academics have seen the need to explore new cross-cultural frontiers in search of novel ideas and perspectives outside their place of residence and seek international employment upon course completion.This book will appeal to higher education administrators and international students and scholars. It underscores the significance of internationalisation in raising and maintaining education standards in general and improving teaching and learning. It discusses at length educational, cultural, social and spatial perspectives, and shares relevant empirical findings and personal experiences to help the reader better appreciate their international interactions.
