Download or read book International Higher Education s Scholar Practitioners written by Bernhard Streitwieser and published by Symposium Books Ltd. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of the professional who bridges both research and practice has been largely overlooked and at times even disregarded by the academic and administrative structures that govern activity in higher education today. In international higher education, the number of students who now engage in mobility and exchange has expanded globally, along with the administrative cadre that manages all facets of internationalization, and the quickly growing scholarly attention to understanding the phenomenon. In this process, two distinct professional categories have emerged: those who ‘study it’ and those who ‘do it’ – the scholars and the practitioners. Practitioners are seen as those who manage the daily logistical flow of students and personnel around the globe, while scholars are seen as those who conduct research, collect and analyze data, and publish findings to inform, improve, and justify the activity. Yet this dichotomy is overly simplistic, outdated, and excludes the large and growing class of hybrid scholar-practitioners who now engage regularly in both kinds of activity. It is this rapidly growing population of bridge builders that are profiled and discussed in this book through critical essays on the notion of the scholar-practitioner and its implication for the further development of international higher education. The chapters include detailed analyses from university faculty, senior international officers and other high-level administrators, directors of research centers, key leaders from influential professional associations and private organizations, managers of study abroad and exchange, and graduate students. This book launches a much-needed dialogue about the perception and reality, potential and promise, of the scholar-practitioner in higher education today. It will be of relevance to a wide variety of readers, from those within universities and organizations to those who are outside observers of higher education.

This book was released on 2013-10-07 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book honors the academic trajectory and global impact of Philip G. Altbach, one of the most important education comparativists worldwide for over forty years. From his early writings on India and student activism to his recent work on research universities, Altbach has served as a key developer of the expansion of the field to include comparative higher education. His capacity to find, support, and gather the best minds around the world, to organize research teams in order to explore the most relevant issues on comparative higher education has earned him international recognition. His service to the field of comparative higher education is invaluable and incomparable. This festschrift contains original pieces from colleagues and former students following a twofold discussion: the most relevant topics on comparative higher education and particular Altbach’s contributions to this field of work.

Download or read book Private Higher Education written by Alma Maldonado-Maldonado and published by Information Age Pub Incorporated. This book was released on 2004 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume's purpose is to provide a bibliographical guide to the literature on private higher education worldwide. "Private Higher Education: An International Bibliography" is organized mainly by geography: region and country. In addition, a cross-reference topical index and an author index are included to assist those interested in particular subjects regardless of geography. While geographical and author placement of citations is almost always straightforward, that is often not the case with topic placements. Some works could reasonably have been put under different topic headings or simultaneously under more headings than those under which they appear. The bibliography includes books, journal articles, and some reports in its main section. It also has a separate listing of doctoral dissertations and theses (and a few masters theses) on private higher education because much of the research on this topic has been produced as doctoral research. In all, 1,116 items are included. [This document was also funded by the Lynch School of Education, Boston College.].
Download or read book The Experiences of International Faculty in Institutions of Higher Education written by Chris R. Glass and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Responding to the growing need for recruitment and retention of international talent in higher education institutions globally, this volume documents the experiences and contribution of international graduate students, researchers, and faculty. This text foregrounds perspectives around recruitment, transition, integration, professional development, and the retention of scholars originating from, or arriving in, countries including China, Australia, Iraq, Japan, and the US. By investigating the support systems that are in place to assist foreign-born faculty members in institutes of higher education, the text provides important insights for departments and institutions as they look to successfully attract and retain global academic talent. Moreover, the scientific and practical implications of the research presented in the text directly informs institutional policy, working towards more effective, inclusive, and equitable ways to support international faculty. This text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in higher education, international and comparative education, and, more specifically, those involved with faculty development programs. The text will also support further discussion and reflection around multicultural education, international teaching and learning, and educational policy more broadly.

Book excerpt: Nations with strong research universities are better able to compete in the international marketplace of ideas and innovation. Any country—especially in the developing world—striving to participate in the global knowledge economy must recognize the power of such institutions to transform society. In World Class Worldwide, analysts from developing and middle-income countries in Asia and Latin America explore their countries’ specific challenges in providing “world class” higher education. Philip G. Altbach, Jorge Balán, and their contributors combine current scholarship and practical experience in presenting a comprehensive discussion of the significant issues facing research universities in Mexico, China, India, and elsewhere. They address the special challenges of establishing and maintaining these institutions; the role of information technology; how research universities train leaders and foster scientific innovation; and the extent to which the private sector can and should be involved in funding and development.
