As global borders and boundaries become increasingly blurred and virtual citizenship gains prominence, the ability to teach effectively across cultures and political divides becomes crucial for the sustainability of the higher education sector. This book delves into the impact of academic mobility on teaching practices, which have been shaped by academics' original cultures being adapted to align with those of their host cultures. The book is organized into three thematic sections, each exploring a different aspect of the internationalization of higher education teaching practice. It begins by examining how teaching identities are shaped by culture and geopolitical factors and concludes by exploring the emergence of the global teaching practitioner who can navigate seamlessly across borders and boundaries. The core sections include: 1. The geopolitics of teaching identities: This section explores how cultural and geopolitical factors influence teaching identities and how they shape the way academics approach their work. 2. A sense of belonging and the lived experience of the academic nomad: This section examines the experiences of academics who engage in international mobility and the challenges they face in adapting to new cultural environments. 3. Academic transition: From migration to integration: This section explores the process of academic transition, from the initial migration to the integration into a new academic environment. The book also includes practical tools and strategies for improving both students' learning experiences and academics' classroom practices. It is intended for researchers, students, practitioners from the social sciences (particularly business, management, and education), foreign language tutors, and TEFL practitioners. Human resource professionals, recruiters, and trainers responsible for recruiting, training, and developing international higher education staff will also find this book to be of interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 606g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031053382\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44289572503802,"sku":"9783031053382","price":38.42,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_822edd22-fa26-488d-bcb8-5ffda0ff7fd1.jpg?v=1687282010","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/borderlands-the-internationalisation-of-higher-education-teaching-practices-9783031053382","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
