The ties that bind: an overview of the relationship between home and branch c...University of Limerick
Australia is one the strongest developers of international branch campuses. Behind the United States (82), United Kingdom (38), Russia (20) and France (16), Australia has a total of 15 offshore locations operated by 11 institutions. Yet international branch campuses are one of the riskiest ventures an institution can undertake. According to the Cross-Border Education Research Team (C-BERT), some 31 have failed – some with spectacular results. They are often established in unfamiliar environments, reap little financial reward and rarely result in the desired pipeline of students to the home institution. What are the secrets to the long-term success of a branch campus? To what extent do both institutions need to achieve alignment and harmonisation of strategy, academic governance and management, and quality goals? How do they balance the compliance requirements for equivalence with home programs with the increasing need for local adaptation to market demand, student ability and host country regulators? This workshop will explore the critical factors for the longevity and sustainability of branch campuses from the perspectives of senior leadership from both home and branch campuses.

Advantages of Pursuing the American Curriculum at Universities in the UAE.pptxfarooqahmed67586
The American curriculum stands out as a beacon of excellence within UAE universities, offering unparalleled opportunities for students seeking a world-class education. With a focus on innovation, critical thinking, and practical application, American-style programs in the UAE integrate cutting-edge research and industry-relevant projects seamlessly into their curricula. Moreover, these institutions actively foster international collaboration through robust Foreign student exchange, enriching the academic experience by exposing students to diverse perspectives and cultures. Additionally, the availability of prestigious master’s scholarships in the UAE further enhances accessibility to these programs, enabling talented individuals to pursue advanced degrees and contribute to the vibrant academic community in the UAE. In essence, the American curriculum in UAE universities not only provides top-tier education but also cultivates a global mindset, preparing students to excel in an interconnected world.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. What’s the Idea?
2
The UA Global Micro-Campus Network is a network of
micro-campuses, or UA-spaces on the campuses of partner
universities.
Micro-campuses take first-rate UA education to students at
partner universities around the globe.
other forms of
abroad, service-
Micro-campuses serve as hubs for
internationalization including study
learning, and joint faculty research.
6. Global Per Capita Income:
$15,800
Cost to attend UA for four years is
14x global per capita income
6
7. International Branch Campuses
Around 600,000 students enrolled in international
branch campuses (IBCs) in their home countries.
Major Critiques of IBCs:
Require large, risky investments
Take a long time to establish/build and then locked
in indefinitely
Costly for students
In competition with local universities
Only focused on revenue, and insufficiently
attuned to research mission of home university
7
9. Guiding Principles For New Model
Mission-Centered: Further the university’s educational, research, and
service missions.
Affordable and Accessible Education: Meaningfully expand global
access to international education by allowing non-US students to
affordably earn a global credential without the need to travel abroad.
Self-Sustaining and Scalable: Generate sufficient revenue to sustain
over time without the need for outside support, and scalable to
multiple locations to ensure global impact.
Aligned Incentives with Partner: Non-competing, expand the reach of
partner universities, develop partner capacity, and further the
educational and research mission of our partners.
10. What is a Micro-Campus?
A micro-campus is a UA-designated space on the campus
of a partner university. The space gives students a sense
of place, a sense that they are students at the University
of Arizona, wherever they are in the world.
10
11. How Does it Work?
SHARED CAMPUS – The partner university allows use of its
physical campus and classrooms, and provides a designated
space for the UA.
SHARED STUDENTS – Students maintain their student status at
the partner university, while enrolled in for-credit UA courses,
offered on location at the partner university.
SHARED TUITION – UA tuition is shared with partner
AFFORDABLE – UA program fees are set near in-state tuition
rates to increase access and affordability.
FULL DEGREES – Students earn a UA degree, either as a dual
degree with partner university, or a stand alone degree.
11
12. COLLABORATIVE TEACHING –
Courses are co-taught by a UA
and a local professor through a
flipped classroom model, or a
locally-basedUA faculty member.

Commentary on the UA Micro-Campus Network
“It’s Arizona’s deft alternative to the financial and reputational risks
of a branch campus. No huge capital investments. No enormous cost
outlay into facilities, services and employed teaching staff… It is as
agile as it gets.” – University World News
“The last couple of weeks have seen the unveiling of two massive but
interesting strategic gambles taken by a couple of US public
universities. I am speaking, of course, about … the University of
Arizona’s attempt to create a global set of “microcampuses.”... It’s a
smart move all around.” - Higher Education Strategy Associates
“It is an innovative approach… Such a global footprint, therefore, has
real impact … This real and comprehensive international impact
though is therefore about much more than just the money”. –
WONKE
“Higher ed can expect to see rising interest in micro-campuses in
2018”. – Education Dive, January 2018
