The cultural diversity of university student populations can be
seen to reflect the changing demographics of an increasingly
international mobile workforce. The implications of the growing
migrant population and differing communication patterns in the
classroom is a highly under-researched area. Cultural Journeys in
Higher Education provides a unique insight into the cultural
experiences of university recounted through the students'
narratives and voices. This book explores the increasingly
culturally diverse composition of the student body and its impact
on student learning. The need to negotiate differing cultural
scripts and adapting to the new cultural landscape when students
arrive at university are just a few of the experiences addressed
within this important text. Cultural Journeys in Higher Education
navigates the issue of curriculum delivery through the eyes of
those who receive the education and questions whether a new
approach is needed to adapt to an increasingly culturally diverse
student body. The student experience is a central focus of this
book, giving researchers, practitioners and leaders in education a
unique perspective that will enable them to further understand the
cultural framework that underpins Higher Education.
