Description
Educational Reciprocity and Adaptability challenges the common assumption that adapting to new educational settings is solely the responsibility of international students. Instead, it argues that reciprocal responses are required by both students and stakeholders for an efficient and equitable accommodation of international students in educational settings. This book presents theoretical frameworks and practical tools to work around the tension regarding ethical academic practices, exploring issues such as institutional policies, practices, and responses from different stakeholders, as well as the experiences of international students and institutions in negotiating academic and social tensions. By examining these topics across various geographical and institutional contexts, it offers critical insights into significant developments in international education. The research presented here is of great interest to academics, researchers, and postgraduate students in fields such as international education, comparative education, sociology of education, youth studies, intercultural studies, migration studies, and TESOL.
