Teaching in Transnational Higher Education examines current trends
and challenges that face students, teachers and institutions of
higher education around the globe. This book comes at a pivotal
moment where many universities are offering their courses in
offshore locations. Students who could once not access an
international qualification can now do so without leaving their
home country. The book clearly defines and takes an in-depth look
at the various types of transnational education, including:
institutions that have campuses abroad, teach specific courses
abroad, and form partnerships with diverse schools to teach
jointly.Teaching in Transnational Higher Education serves as a
forum for debate on such insightful topics as: the modification of
teaching to adapt to the needs of diverse students; the use of
technology in the classroom; the view of higher education as a
marketable service; the importance of cultural awareness and
understanding in a transnational classroom; and, the complexities
of assuring quality education across borders. The authors choose to
highlight a broad sampling of transnational programs including
those in: Zambia, China, and the United Arab Emirates, among
others. Interviews with students and teachers participating in
these programs of study make this an enjoyable and unique portrait
of higher education that is invaluable to those who teach and learn
around the world.Lee Dunn is a lecturer and academic developer in
the Teaching and Learning Centre at Southern Cross University.
Michelle Wallace is an Associate Professor in the Graduate College
of Management at Southern Cross University.
