学术参与被认为是所有学生(包括来自国外的学生)最佳学习体验的标志和学术成功的关键。因此,为高等教育学生创造一个有吸引力的学习环境是大学当前面临的最紧迫的问题之一。本文首先总结了作者的研究观点,重点关注国际学生参与大学学习的情况。作者特别试图了解来自不同背景的国际学生在多大程度上参与学习,以及不同国际学生群体之间学生学习环境因素对其学术参与的影响是否存在差异。其次,我们介绍了三个新兴的视角:学生与未来自我愿景相关的学术参与、博士教育和短期留学项目,这些都与国际教育密切相关。第三,本文提出了文献中的几个空白,作者认为这些空白对于未来的调查非常重要,有助于学生在全球化高等教育机构中的学术参与。
Academic engagement is considered to be a hallmark of an optimal studying experience and a key to academic success for all students, including those from abroad. Accordingly, creating an engaging learning environment for higher education students is among the most pressing issues currently facing universities. This essay first summarises authors’ research perspectives focussing on international students’ engagement in university studies. The authors especially have attempted to understand to what extent international students from different backgrounds engage in their studies and whether the impacts of factors in students’ learning environment on their academic engagement vary between different international student cohorts. Second, we introduce three emerging perspectives: students’ academic engagement in relation to their future self-visions, doctoral education and short-term study abroad programs, which are all closely tied with international education. Third, the essay proposes several gaps in the literature that the authors find important for future investigation to contribute to students’ academic engagement in globalising higher educational institutions.
