Recenzii

Jos Beelen - Amsterdam University
It will definitely be an asset to have a book in which the latest developments are discussed. I would agree with the proposer that there is a fairly wide range of market audiences within HEis, such as educational developers, quality assurance officers, policy advisors and, foremost, specialists in ICC that assist colleagues to implement this concept into programmes of studies. In my experience, these specialists have a crucial role in curriculum (re)design. The book can be expected to remain valuable for a number of years as the issues it describes have been around for a while. The editor is undoubtedly a leading authority in the field.
Ken Cushner - Kent State University College
I am certain that there is interest in the book proposed by Deardorff and Arasaratnam-Smith, and I believe the interest will continue to grow in the years ahead. I see two principal markets in the USA, Britain, Australia, Canada: 1) as a textbook for graduate level classes in programs such as higher education administration as well as departments of teacher education and/or curriculum and instruction to enhance already existing courses in multicultural and international education; and, 2) as a resource for higher education administrators working in offices of international affairs (e.g., education/study abroad, international student services). Given this, I do agree with the author’s evaluation of potential markets. Thus, if used in graduate level classes, I see it being used as a main text for courses in international higher education administration, as a supplementary text in courses in curriculum and instruction (multicultural or international/global education), and as a reference text for offices of international education as well libraries.
