Developing Global Citizenship and Inter-cultural Competencies: Examining the Work of the International Higher Education Teaching and Learning Association (HETL)
The Challenges of Educational Transfer and BorrowingSidney Leite
The global economy has opened doors to worldwide travel, the Internet and easy access to information. It is possible to know just about as much (or even more!) about a certain part of the world just by researching via the Internet than it was many years ago by physical travel to that location. This ease of access to information and travel has allowed for an exchange of ideas unparalleled in History, facilitating the emulation of good (or bad) ideas and practices. This copying is known technically as “educational policy borrowing or transfer.”

Designing meaningful learning environments with service-learningSt. John's University
Service-learning is an academically rigorous and structured educational approach that promotes active learning by integrating classroom learning with experiential learning through pragmatic community service and civic engagement.
Higher education institutions have a critical role to play in driving sustainable development forward. But creating a sustainable future is much more than just creating green campuses or implementing recycling efforts or global citizenship initiatives. It also means inclusive education and lifelong learning.
This design worksheet steps one through the process of how to design a field-based learning activity or program, including defining the learning aims and goals and how it can be integrated into the curriculum to create a more dynamic and engaged learning environment.
This keynote presentation will provide an overview of field-based learning - an active, inquiry-based teaching and learning strategy where teaching and learning is extended beyond the classroom/laboratory walls and where students are exposed to real-world teaching and learning settings in the broader community. In field-based learning, students learn by hands-on application of course content and though direct interaction with the environment rather than solely through textbooks and lectures.
The main focus of education should not be purely vocational but rather in nurturing interests, skills, and knowledge across an array of topics that are personally meaningful and individualized to each student. The ultimate goal education should be to prepare students for life in all its complexities - creative learning is a key element in achieving this goal.
