ABSTRACT For universities seeking to promote internationalization, the development of an understanding and appreciation of cultural diversity among staff and students is a priority. Cultural and linguistic diversification of the student body can, however, present academic staff with challenges in the areas of curriculum, teaching methods and assessment. In this study, we take up the culturally variable notion of “participation” as a constituent of learning and draw on data derived from focus group interviews to probe the participation-related challenges reported by academic staff in a UK university. Finally, we consider the implications of our findings for strategic interventions aimed at academic staff.

“参与”国际化高等教育课堂:学术人员的视角

摘要对于寻求促进国际化的大学而言,发展对员工和学生之间文化多样性的理解和重视是当务之急。但是,学生群体的文化和语言多样化可能给学术人员带来课程,教学方法和评估方面的挑战。在这项研究中,我们采用文化参与的概念“参与”作为学习的组成部分,并利用来自焦点小组访谈的数据来探讨英国大学学术人员报告的与参与有关的挑战。最后,我们考虑研究结果对针对学术人员的战略干预的意义。
