Idea 1: redefine, rebrand and modernize the concept of “study abroad”

Idea 2: engage accrediting bodies to have them include global competencies in their rubrics

About

The theory is that if “international” is a box that institutions have to check, or a question that they have to address, as they seek accreditation, then it will naturally get the attention of senior level administrators and faculty.

Idea 3: reframe the problem as a K-20 issue and address it at all levels

About

In order to make study abroad an essential part of what it means to be educated, student and family expectations must be addressed at a much younger age. Teachers are key influencers who can help students understand the importance of global awareness early on, and inspire them to be curious about and engaged in the world.

Idea 4: use research strategically and more practically

About

There is a wide range of research available, but validity and quality of the data vary, and the research is often conducted by and for the benefit of the international education community alone. It is important to highlight the most substantive, valid data, and to look for holes in the data that can be plugged with further research.

Idea 5: engage the foreign language learning community as an ally and partner

About
