This book was released on 2010-02-15 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year, 700,000 students from around the world come to the United States and Canada to study. For many, the experience is as challenging as it is exciting. Far from home, they must adapt to a new culture, new university system, and in many cases, a new language. The process can be overwhelming, but as Charles Lipson’s Succeeding as an International Student in the United States and Canada assures us, it doesn’t have to be. Succeeding is designed to help students navigate the myriad issues they will encounter—from picking a program to landing a campus job. Based on Lipson’s work with international students as well as extensive interviews with faculty and advisers, Succeeding includes practical suggestions for learning English, participating in class, and meeting with instructors. In addition it explains the rules of academic honesty as they are understood in U.S. and Canadian universities. Life beyond the classroom is also covered, with handy sections on living on or off campus, obtaining a driver’s license, setting up a bank account, and more. The comprehensive glossary addresses both academic terms and phrases heard while shopping or visiting a doctor. There is even a chapter on the academic calendar and holidays in the United States and Canada. Coming to a new country to study should be an exciting venture, not a baffling ordeal. Now, with this trustworthy resource, international students have all the practical information they need to succeed, in and out of the classroom.

Download or read book The International Student's Guide to the United States of America written by Stephen M. Magu and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coming to the United States for the first time, as an international student, can be quite exciting. Yet, the journey from the country of origin often has significant perils. They often range from the mundane: a missed flight, a plane that needs minor - or major - repairs, going to the wrong gate, needing an airport transit visa and not having one. They stretch into getting delayed at Passport Control to lost luggage, having no quarters to make a phone call to the student's pick-up person who is waiting at the Cell Phone lot outside, to major issues such as weather delays which can strand a student at the airport for days, or to the seemingly innocous decision to leave the country of origin on a Thursday, getting to the US on Friday after 5 p.m. and finding that the campus is closed. This is the first comprehensive guide that lists the step-by-step planning process - including those things that an international student often does not consider - as they make the perilous journey into the United States. The Guide walks a student from their home airport, through Passport Control, Customs and Border Protection entry procedures, ground transportation, private and public transportation, to the destination. It guides a student through the reporting and registration process, finding accommodation, getting integrated into the school and local community and finally, to returning to the country of origin. International Students coming to the United States - and going to many other countries - will find this guide quite helpful in assisting them plan for their difficult journey into the United States.

Download or read book International Guide to Student Achievement written by John Hattie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Guide to Student Achievement brings together and critically examines the major influences shaping student achievement today. There are many, often competing, claims about how to enhance student achievement, raising the questions of "What works?" and "What works best?" World-renowned bestselling authors, John Hattie and Eric M. Anderman have invited an international group of scholars to write brief, empirically-supported articles that examine predictors of academic achievement across a variety of topics and domains. Rather than telling people what to do in their schools and classrooms, this guide simply provides the first-ever compendium of research that summarizes what is known about the major influences shaping students’ academic achievement around the world. Readers can apply this knowledge base to their own school and classroom settings. The 150+ entries serve as intellectual building blocks to creatively mix into new or existing educational arrangements and aim for quick, easy reference. Chapter authors follow a common format that allows readers to more seamlessly compare and contrast information across entries, guiding readers to apply this knowledge to their own classrooms, their curriculums and teaching strategies, and their teacher training programs.
