Upcoming conference on international education!

The project team are preparing a conference on themes relating to international education. Check out the website here! There is still time to submit an abstract too - June 3rd is the extension.

Generally we hope to discuss issues like:

• whether the nature of 'knowledge' in a degree program is perceived by students and staff as 'global'
• whether a 'global' curriculum is or can be informed by local contexts and conceptions of teaching and learning, and
• how educating the 'global citizen' implies a standardised 'delivery' of the same curriculum worldwide, emanating from Westernised education systems.

The conference aims to:

1. encourage inclusive practices in learning and teaching in the international context
2. critically examine opportunities for and barriers to collaborative research and funding
3. foster networks for research throughout the conference to encourage people to identify research areas and possible connections with likeminded others, and
4. identify and explore research methodologies and new ways of doing research.

We hope you can make to Kuala Lumpur next February!
