Research with International Students: Critical Conceptual and Methodological Considerations: Internationalization in Higher Education Series

Editat de Jenna Mittelmeier, Sylvie Lomer, Kalyani Unkule
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 noi 2023
This must-read book combines carefully selected contributions to form a collective scholarly critique of existing research with international students, focusing on key critical and conceptual considerations for research where international students are participants or co-researchers. It pushes forward new agendas for the future of research with international students in global contexts, posing new sets of problems, provocations, and possibilities.
Bringing together a range of interdisciplinary scholars, this book explores the many facets of research, which centres international students and their experiences. Each chapter concludes with practical reflection questions, suggestions for researchers, and examples in existing research to support research designs and aid in developing high-quality, critical research on this topic.
Bringing fresh perspectives to the topic of research with international students, the book focuses on:
  • Outlining current problems with existing research, including the ways that international students may be stereotyped, homogenised, Othered, or framed through deficit and colonial narratives
  • (Re)-conceptualising key ideas that underpin research which are currently taken for granted
  • Developing reflection points and practical guidance for new research designs which centre criticality and ethics
  • Outlining ways that discourses and narratives about international students can be made more complex, particularly in reflection of their intersectional identities
This key text is essential reading for researchers at all career stages to reflect on issues of power, inequality, and ethics, whilst developing understandings about critical choices in research design, analysis, and the presentation of findings.

Recenzii

‘Research with International Students: Critical Conceptual and Methodological Considerations is an essential text for anyone researching or teaching in the area of international education. This edited volume invites readers to take a reflexive, intersectional, power-conscious, and complexity-focused approach to research with international students. This approach challenges paternalistic research engagements and one-dimensional representations, and positions international students as knowledge producers. The authors go beyond simply critiquing the inequities that characterize international student experiences in order to grapple with the many epistemological, theoretical, and methodological challenges and possibilities involved in tracing the multiple systems, forces, and hierarchies that shape and are shaped by these experiences.’
Sharon Stein, Assistant Professor, University of British Columbia
‘As a researcher currently examining the "Integration of international students into the entrepreneurial ecosystems within higher education" and situated between the realms of a former international student during my teens and returning as an international student as an adult, reading these chapters was personal. I say this because they allowed me to reflect on the path my personal experiences have led me. In addition, the "suggestions for researchers "and "reflection questions" were delightful and necessary additions.
The chapters were genuinely insightful, thought-provoking, and challenged the positionality of international students within research. I love that the writers call for us to move towards creating a humanized and equitable experience for international students, which is something inherently missing within the fabric of higher education. The book has also allowed me to think critically about what "true integration" of international students means as it relates to truly understanding and acknowledging our nuanced experiences, cultures, sexuality, race, and beings.’
Toritse Ikomi, International Master's Student, Erasmus Mundus Masters in Research and Innovation in Higher Education Programme
‘Research with International Students addresses an important but not yet fully researched contribution to the field of internationalization of higher education. The chapters in the book provide a critical and diverse overview of the study of international students and introduce the subfield of research with international students in a comprehensive and innovative way to the broader field of internationalization of higher education.’
Hans de Wit, Distinguished Fellow and Professor Emeritus, Boston College Center for International Higher Education
‘The book brings together a collection of essays based on the premise that a great deal of current research on international students fails to recognize the diversity, contingency and complexity of their experiences and aspirations --as well as the ways in which the project of internationalization is transforming the character of higher education. Collectively, these essays point to the need for research that aims to develop a more critical understanding of internationalization by utilizing theoretical and political resources from the emerging decolonial, intersectional, and radical strands in educational studies.’
Fazal Rizvi, Emeritus Professor, The University of Melbourne and The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
‘These short sharp stimulating essays open multiple doorways into student mobility and its subjectivities. The determined focus on research with (rather than about) international students changes the politics of the field.’
Simon Marginson, Professor of Higher Education, University of Oxford
