In recent months we've heard the Australian Government pinning a chunk of blame for the current housing crisis on international students. In this episode of Global Horizons, Rob Malicki (The Global Society) and Dirk Mulder (The Koala News) talk about research that just dropped that torpedoes that narrow view. And it seems this really is a "mythbusting" episode, as we get into details of an excellent piece of analysis by the legenedary Alan Olsen looking at the difference between domestic and international students and their rates of passing subjects. For as long as international students have been coming to Australia, there has been a narrative in the mainstream press (and in sections of some campuses) that international students lower educational standards. But what if international students actually passed more subjects than domestic students? Wouldn't that tell a different story? We'll dive into Alan's analysis and what it reveals. Finally, Rob and Dirk are joined by Jason Howard, the founder of StudyLink (now part of the Flywire group). This is a great conversation looking at how the sector has changed over the decades that Jason has been involved, and how technology and systems have shifted. https://lnkd.in/e5YKtwGT #intled #podcast #news

🌍 In this #OurSharedOcean podcast clip, Ilive Peltier discusses the transformative impact of interdisciplinary learning in education. She advocates for integrating subjects like maths, science, and social studies to help students, from a young age, connect with sustainability as a meaningful science—not just a buzzword. Discover how this approach can inspire real change and transform education. 🌱🌐 Watch the full interview on the link below. https://lnkd.in/eKDMPfjh Marine Institute #InterdisciplinaryLearning #SustainabilityEducation #InspireChange

In the webinar I co-hosted with Tracy Harris and Dirk Mulder on Friday - I explained that I had modelled an alternative approach to setting international student caps which I thought was fairer, and which corrected the flaws I had found in the government's methodology. I've done some more work on it over the weekend - and it is definitely not the best solution to the issue... but with the government still having multiple options at its disposal to set limits on new international student enrolments and the Opposition working out how they will set student caps if they win the next election - I've shared my alternate methdology in the spirit of showing that something better is possible even if you simply look to improve the government's existing approach. Just a note that I made the decisions I did in developing this alternative approach, based on my understanding of the government's policy objectives and the Opposition's. The methodology does not reflect my own persoanl views on which types of providers should get which caps (because fortunately for the sector I am not a Minister) 😉 My aim is merely to stimulate thinking amongst policymakers on alternatives, if they intend to (as I am sure they do) continue on this path. If you missed our webinar - the recording is freely available on my website, or via the The Koala News, and you can also catch the audio of it as a special episode of the 'What now? What next?' podcast. Here's my alternate methodology for setting student caps: https://lnkd.in/gpUsrs6x

From the latest issue of ELTHE - Intersections and Interactions in Student Experiences: Inquiry into a New Taxonomy of Experiential Learning “As educators, how do we identify, create, and design opportunities with such significant learning? Rooted in practitioner-scholar inquiry, this essay anchors practitioner research as the theoretical foundation to explore the students’ experience, emerging from experiential education practice and leading to broad inquiry focused on the learning that arises (Green, 2023). If we listen carefully to the student discussion in this roundtable [from the latest issue of ELTHE), they guide us closer to insight and inquiry into this learning.” Read the full article in ELTHE (free with an email registration): https://lnkd.in/e9WD5DZi Listen to the conversation on the Mindset in Motion podcast: https://lnkd.in/gkJnpCjC Author: Patrick M.
