Hand-in-hand with the continuing drive to recruit international
students to Western universities goes an interest in student
engagement. However, it is often unclear exactly what is meant by
engagement. This book goes beyond the policy rhetoric to provide a
practice-based explication of international student engagement and
its enabling institutional conditions. By utilising a social
practice conceptual model, the book explains the multiple
dimensions of engagement that are often conflated in policy: the
antecedents to engagement, the actions of engaging, and the
achievements and outcomes of engagement. As a result, the book is
able to address issues such as how English comes to matter in
international student academic practice; the teaching and
assessment approaches that promote international student
engagement; and the metacognitive, cognitive and affective
strategies that international students use to achieve academic and
personal transformation.
