The drive to internationalize higher education has seen the focus
shift in recent years towards its defining element, the curriculum.
As the point of connection between broader institutional strategies
and the student experience, the curriculum plays a key role in the
success or failure of the internationalization agenda. Yet despite
much debate, the role and power of curriculum internationalization
is often unappreciated. This has meant that critical questions,
including what it means and how it can be achieved in different
disciplines, have not been consistently or strategically addressed.
This volume breaks new ground in connecting theory and practice in
internationalizing the curriculum in different disciplinary and
institutional contexts. An extensive literature review, case
studies and action research projects provide valuable insights into
the concept of internationalization of the curriculum. Best
practice in curriculum design, teaching and learning in higher
education are applied specifically to the process of
internationalizing the curriculum. Examples from different
disciplines and a range of practical resources and ideas are
provided. Topics covered include: why internationalize the
curriculum?; designing internationalized learning outcomes; using
student diversity to internationalize the curriculum; blockers and
enablers to internationalization of the curriculum; assessment in
an internationalized curriculum; connecting internationalization of
the curriculum with institutional goals and student learning.
Internationalizing the Curriculum provides invaluable guidance to
university managers, academic staff, professional development
lecturers and support staff as well as students and scholars
interested in advancing theory and practice in this important area.
