Book Synopsis International Students by : Maureen Andrade
Download or read book International Students written by Maureen Andrade. This book was released on 2009-08-16. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International students are often taken for granted in higher education institutions in the United States. Many college and university administrators are unaware of the initiatives of other nations to attract international students and of the need to support these students. Higher education journals have not focused much attention on international students. International Students: Strengthening a Critical Resource argues that U.S. institutions of higher education must increase their awareness of international student issues. Andrade reviews related research and highlights creative solutions and programming for the successful support of international students. The book provides practical, hands-on, broadly applicable solutions to addressing international student issues. Additionally, it serves as a practical guide for identifying and adopting best practices for serving international students.

Book Synopsis International Student Transitions by : Maureen Snow Andrade
Download or read book International Student Transitions written by Maureen Snow Andrade. This book was released on 2019-06-07. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: US higher education institutions host more than a million international students, many of whom speak English as a second language (ESL). As this number is projected to grow, it is vital that new curricular and non-curricular approaches to English language development are considered, including rigorous evaluation processes. This book introduces a framework to guide institutions in examining their views and beliefs regarding language acquisition and current approaches to international student success. It makes a distinction between a philosophy of support and a philosophy of development with a focus on the latter. It provides stakeholders with theoretical and practical foundations from which they can design, develop, and implement new models for students’ linguistic and cultural growth. Application of the framework will encourage institutions to examine support models that have been in place for decades and develop effective processes for generating innovative programming and practices aimed at helping international ESL students achieve their educational goals.

Book Synopsis Education Abroad Reciprocity Students at the University of California at Berkeley by : Shannon M. Plath
Download or read book Education Abroad Reciprocity Students at the University of California at Berkeley written by Shannon M. Plath. This book was released on 2007. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proposed international student orientation for new Education Abroad Program (EAP) Reciprocity students enrolling at the University of California at Berkeley (UC Berkeley) as part of a one or two semester exchange is an innovative design that aims to provide students with the most pertinent resources available to them in order to ease their transition into the culture of the United States (U.S.). The orientation will be hosted by the Services for International Students and Scholars (SISS) office which serves more than 5,000 international students and scholars at UC Berkeley annually. The proposed design introduces a new program model that emerged out of a comprehensive review of current issues, trends and studies in the field of international student advising. The core of the orientation program focuses on three major points: 1.) Introducing students to the U.S. higher education system, 2.) Addressing language differences, 3.) Cross-cultural adjustment issues. Using these three points as the basis of the orientation sessions, ten days of planned activities and events have been designed. The orientation program utilizes a variety of teaching methods integrating faculty, UC Berkeley staff and current students through interactive sessions, informal discussions, workshops and planned social activities. The design strives to meet the needs of students and at the same time implement SISS0́9s strategic vision to forge a positive identity that works collaboratively and proactively with other units within the UC Berkeley community.
