In line with the fiscal, structural, and academic shifts in higher education, a growing number of universities in English-speaking countries develop and deliver short-term study-abroad (STSA) programs that are shorter than a regular academic term, often under contract with sending universities and governments from non-English-speaking countries. Distinct from the well-established scholarship in SA largely focused on American and European university students going abroad to improve their foreign language skills (c.f., Kinginger, 2008; Mitchell, Tracy-Ventura, & McManus, 2017), there is an emerging area of inquiry in which Anglophone institutions of higher education host students and (para)professionals from non-English-speaking countries for academic and cultural enrichment, as well as for English language teaching. To address the nascent transnational trend, broadly related to ESL in higher education, this article provides an overview of the current state and prospects associated with STSA. After laying out the groundwork for SA, this article identifies the unique scope and potential area of inquiry related to STSA hosted by Anglophone institutions of higher education. The overview article then proposes a potential research agenda that encompasses sojourner identity, goals, and practices vis-a-vis institutional goals and practices at the intersection of SA and TESOL.

TESOL短期留学：现状与展望

随着高等教育的财政、结构和学术转变，越来越多的英语国家的大学制定并提供比常规学期短的短期出国留学 (STSA) 计划，通常是签订合同派遣来自非英语国家的大学和政府。与南澳成熟的奖学金主要侧重于出国留学以提高外语技能的美国和欧洲大学生（cf, Kinginger, 2008; Mitchell, Tracy-Ventura, & McManus, 2017）不同，有一个新兴领域英语国家高等教育机构接纳来自非英语国家的学生和（准）专业人员进行学术和文化丰富以及英语教学的调查。为了应对与高等教育中的 ESL 广泛相关的新兴跨国趋势，本文概述了与 STSA 相关的现状和前景。在为 SA 奠定基础之后，本文确定了与由讲英语的高等教育机构主办的 STSA 相关的独特范围和潜在的调查领域。然后，概述文章提出了一个潜在的研究议程，其中包括在 SA 和 TESOL 交叉点上相对于机构目标和实践的旅居者身份、目标和实践。本文确定了与英语国家高等教育机构主办的 STSA 相关的独特范围和潜在的调查领域。然后，概述文章提出了一个潜在的研究议程，其中包括在 SA 和 TESOL 交叉点上相对于机构目标和实践的旅居者身份、目标和实践。本文确定了与英语国家高等教育机构主办的 STSA 相关的独特范围和潜在调查领域。然后，概述文章提出了一个潜在的研究议程，其中包括在 SA 和 TESOL 交叉点上相对于机构目标和实践的旅居者身份、目标和实践。
