Teaching International Students: Improving Learning for All

Teaching International Students explores the challenges presented to lecturer and student alike by increased cultural diversity within universities.

the issues arising from international students studying alongside 'home' students

the nature of learning and teacher-student relationships

curriculum and development of teaching skills

multicultural group work

postgraduate supervision

the experience of the international student

Teaching International Students is essential reading. It demonstrates how improved training for teachers and a better understanding of the international student can enhance the experience of both and, ultimately, provide more positive learning environments for international students in the higher education system.
