Book excerpt: This study sought to capture the attitudes of community college faculty regarding the academic and cultural impacts of international students from the African Diaspora on four selected community colleges in the Mid-Atlantic region. Of particular interest was the academic and cultural impacts of these students from countries in sub-Saharan Africa and the English speaking Caribbean. Primary characteristics of institutions selected were enrollment of at least one hundred international students from African and English-speaking Caribbean countries, two-year state supported community colleges, National Association of International Educators (NAFSA) affiliated, and an expressed commitment to international education and students. Participants (full-time faculty members) were randomly selected from each institution within the disciplines of the liberal arts and social sciences. The researcher used the survey method to distribute The International Education Opinionnaire. Descriptive statistics and a multiple analysis of variance (MANOVA) were the statistical applications used to analyze the data. Faculty showed an overall positive attitude toward the academic and cultural impact of international students at their respective institutions. Over 90 percent of faculty indicated that it was important for their community colleges to enroll international students from the African Diaspora. Faculty also indicated that their respective colleges should provide them with opportunities to acquire inter-cultural knowledge, skills, and experience. Recommendations made included an increased effort on the part of community college leaders to provide faculty with the kinds of experiences that will enhance their global acuity and appreciation of inter-cultural skills. Further, community colleges need to shift from their limited parochial focus and embrace and engage the global higher education marketplace. -- Abstract.

This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Responding to the growing need for recruitment and retention of international talent in higher education institutions globally, this volume documents the experiences and contribution of international graduate students, researchers, and faculty. This text foregrounds perspectives around recruitment, transition, integration, professional development, and the retention of scholars originating from, or arriving in, countries including China, Australia, Iraq, Japan, and the US. By investigating the support systems that are in place to assist foreign-born faculty members in institutes of higher education, the text provides important insights for departments and institutions as they look to successfully attract and retain global academic talent. Moreover, the scientific and practical implications of the research presented in the text directly informs institutional policy, working towards more effective, inclusive, and equitable ways to support international faculty. This text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in higher education, international and comparative education, and, more specifically, those involved with faculty development programs. The text will also support further discussion and reflection around multicultural education, international teaching and learning, and educational policy more broadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates the application of African Diaspora Literacy in K–12 schools and teacher education programs. The book emerged from a four-week Fulbright-Hays Group Abroad project to Cameroon, West Africa, which was focused on African Diaspora Literacy. The project was guided by the African principle of “Ubuntu” (I am because we are). The 15-member team was comprised of eight faculty members (representing five universities—Benedict College, Michigan State University, South Carolina State University, South University, and the University of South Carolina), one community member, two K–12 administrators, and four K–12 teachers from high need schools. The inclusion of such a diverse group of participants in the Kamtok project (e.g., professors, K–12 teachers, community members) lent itself to producing rich data that captured both the intellectual scholarship and layperson’s experience with equilateral consideration. The purpose of the project was to gain firsthand knowledge, artifacts, documents, experiences, and resources to be used in the development, implementation, and dissemination of curricula to be used in K–12 schools and university classrooms to more effectively prepare educators to teach African American students. Focusing specifically on the language, history, politics, economics, religion, and cultural traditions of people in the African Diaspora (e.g, U.S., Africa, Caribbean, the Americas, Europe, Asia), this book illuminates critical information typically missing from K–12 schools and teacher education, and English curricula. Chapters are written by scholars from Cameroons as well as those from the U.S. The book represents a lovely compilation of application, theory, and research. The book explores how African Diaspora Literacy can be used to heal the endemic physical, symbolic, linguistic, curricula, pedagogical, and system violence that African American children and youth experience in schools and in society.

Book excerpt: This issue uses the powerful narrative of autoethnography to make visible the existence of international professors and teaching assistants who speak English as a Second Language. These important, but often invisible, individuals contribute daily to the education of students within the US postsecondary educational system. This volume covers a variety of experiences, such as: Faculty of color teaching intercultural communication International teaching assistants’ attitudes toward their US students The challenges to existing cultural assumptions in the US classroom. These experiences—in the form of challenges and contributions—are foregrounded and highlighted in their own right. This is the 138th volume of the quarterly Jossey-Bass higher education series New Directions for Teaching and Learning. It offers a comprehensive range of ideas and techniques for improving college teaching based on the experience of seasoned instructors and the latest findings of educational and psychological researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays highlights the controversies surrounding racism in sports and African American athletes, examining the racial discrimination that exists in one of the most public arenas in the 21st century. Despite increasing diversity in the American population, race and racial bias continue to be significant issues in the United States. Sports—one of the most visible and important subsets of American culture—directly reflect our society's beliefs about race. This book examines racial controversy and conflict in various sports in the United States in both previous eras as well as the current "Age of Obama." The essays in the work explain how racial ideologies are created and recreated in all areas of public life, including the world of sports. The authors address a wide range of sports, including ones where racial minorities are in the numerical minority, such as hockey. Specific topics covered include the devaluation of black athletes, racism in Major League Baseball, and the treatment of black female athletes.
