Paul Donaldson proposes three topics for his dissertation on the impacts of study abroad programs: 1) Whether study abroad can be an effective student retention strategy by analyzing retention data of students who study abroad compared to those who do not. 2) If the duration of study abroad impacts outcomes by analyzing programs of different lengths. 3) What barriers prevent broader access to study abroad by surveying student attitudes towards potential barriers. He plans to collaborate with study abroad offices, conduct surveys of students, and analyze institutional data to address these questions for his dissertation.

The promise of diasporic academics: Potential partnerships between the local ...Sherrie Lee
Lee, S. (2017, November). The promise of diasporic academics: Potential partnerships between the local and global. Paper presented at the New Zealand Association for Research in Education Conference (NZARE) Annual Conference, Hamilton, New Zealand.
Abstract
This presentation considers the promise of diasporic academics from the viewpoint of one who identifies herself as a diasporic academic. Drawing from Wendy Larner’s (2015) paper, the presentation is a biographical reflection on the benefits and implications of diasporic academics, in particular, international doctoral students, in higher education.
Firstly, I will discuss the definition and examples of a diasporic academic, as well as highlight how diasporic academics are positioned as transnational knowledge brokers in advancing universities' internationalisation strategies and policies. I then focus on a particular group of diasporic academics, international doctoral students. I argue that while they are pivotal in advancing internationalisation plans, the ways in which universities engage (or disengage) with them serve to undermine those internationalisation goals.
Then I provide a brief outline of my personal background to set the context of my reflections. I will speak from my experiences as a former leader in my university’s Postgraduate Students’ Association, share about international student engagement in my own faculty, and highlight the tensions arising from university-wide restructuring and significant staff movements. I then offer suggestions how relationships with international doctoral students as diasporic academics can be nurtured in mutually beneficial ways.
I conclude that leadership in higher education needs to be cognizant of the potential and challenges of engaging with emerging diasporic academics. After all, diasporic academics are potential partners in growing international networks in an age of academic mobility.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
At UHD, we know that high-impact educational experiences shape the quality of our programs. We also know that students in today's marketplace must have an international appreciation. Our study-abroad programs blend these beliefs to create an invaluable experience.
If high impact educational experiences are a key element to a UHD education, what is the future of the traditional classroom? Which delivers the greater chance for a high impact experience, a four-wall classroom, or this?
As you can see, study abroad is certainly a high impact experience. Which leads to this question, can study abroad be viewed as a retention strategy? Today, I’m advocating that we further review the retention potential of study abroad programs at UHD.
We know that study-abroad programs are valuable, but what are their measurable outcomes? The University of Minnesota's Study Abroad for Global Engagement project has identified some expected outcomes. Few studies, however, have measured the impact on retention and graduation.
In a recent article,Christy Metzger argues that study abroad programming consistently yields positive outcomes related topreparing the workforce for a global economy, retention of students, managing the economic shift and may very well be a retention strategy that has been overlooked.
Keeping with the theme of retention, another question arises. Are retention and graduation rates affected not only by study abroad participation, but also the duration of the program? Are there differences between one week, one month, and full semester programs?
A recent article by Karin Fischer points out that data released by the SAGE project suggests that students who go overseas for a short period of time, four weeks or less, are just as likely as those who study abroad for several months or even a year to be globally engaged.
This SAGE table confirms what Fischer reported. In her article, she also argues that this will “add fuel to the already fiery debate over the efficacy of increasingly popular short-term study abroad programs.” But since retention was not studied as an outcome, we don’t know if it is also unaffected.
Another topic of research interest is barriers to student access. What prevents a student from ultimately making the decision to study abroad? Do these barriers have varying effects depending on diversity factors?
In a recent article on study abroad minority access, Mickey Slind argues that “real barriers do exist, but the continuance of institutional assumptions and individual students with misinformed perceptions limit the success of overcoming any of them.”
The three research topics we just discussed are part of my dissertation proposal to the University of Houston in conjunction with the University of Houston-Downtown. I believe that if we collaborate on this project, there are added benefits to our institution and to our students
So how do I propose that we analyze these topics? First, considering study abroad as a retention strategy, I am proposing that we analyze retention and graduation data for recent and future student abroad participants and compare to similar student populations who did not participate.
On study abroad duration impact, I am recommending that we analyze recent and future study abroad programs based on duration to detect whether real differences exist and affect student persistence, retention, and graduation rates.
And on access barriers, I propose that we analyze student attitudes and beliefs on study abroad to detect barriers to access. We would then take this data and group by ethnicity, age, gender, and other attributes in order to determine the varying affects.
To support all three research topics, I also recommend that we develop a study abroad survey to record student beliefs related to study abroad retention impact, satisfaction in regards to duration of programs, and perceived barriers to study abroad access.
What resources will be necessary to move forward with this proposal? I foresee the need only for collaboration with relevant UHD faculty, staff, and administrators and the approval of UHD to proceed and conduct a survey.
I mentioned briefly that there are benefits of this study to UHD. I believe that we will benefit by increasing valuable data on our study abroad outcomes; having a better understanding on student attitudes and access barriers; and possibly viewing study abroad in a new light as a retention strategy.
Much of what we’ve discussed today reconfirms what we already know: studying abroad is a uniquely valuable experience that many students consider the most impactful in their student careers. Hopefully by working together, we’ll learn more about these positive effects and further enhance our programs.
