Description

What happens when East travelsWest? In today's increasingly globalized world, these collisions are becoming increasingly common in universities- especially due to the growth of migratory students .

As the largestinternational population studying abroad in the world, Chinese students'learning experience in an intercultural environment calls for more attention.

Thisbook covers an array of problems common to Chinese students studyingabroad and explores how these students academically adjust to an intercultural environment.

It also highlights how they familiarize themselves with the education system, ranging from the types of courses, academic tasks and examinations to the structure of the education as a whole in thehost country, as they negotiate the gulf between academic expectations at home versusthose in the host university environment and communicate with domestic lecturersand students.
