Abstract

Der zweite Tagungsband des Netzwerks bildet nicht nur vielfältige Ergebnisse der Hochschulforschung ab, sondern beschäftigt sich auch mit der Verortung dieser Forschung selbst. Er beinhaltet Beiträge aus verschiedenen Disziplinen und setzt unterschiedliche Forschungszugänge und -intentionen voraus. So werden Erkenntnisgewinn, Forschungsrelevanz und der angewandte Forschungsbezug sowie die Praxis in den Beiträgen diskutiert und dargestellt. Der Tagungsband liefert damit einen Beitrag zur aktuellen und zukünftigen (Weiter-)Entwicklung auf der System- oder Institutionenebene unter Berücksichtigung der handelnden Akteur*innen.

Abstract

This publication compiles and analyses the latest data on the international nature of studies, research and teaching in Germany and other major countries. The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the German Centre for Research on Higher Education and Science Studies (DZHW) have issued this standard reference work on international mobility in the higher education sector since 2001. The spotlights in this edition report on the retention of international students in their respective host countries, preparatory courses for university admission at Studienkollegs in Germany and the study-related international mobility of domestic students at German universities. The authors of the publication analyse and interpret developments relating to international students and researchers in Germany, the mobility patterns of students and researchers from Germany and international academic mobility worldwide. Wissenschaft weltoffen integrates the international data published by the OECD and UNESCO with the national data from the Federal Statistical Office. For over 20 years, in combination with other indicators and time series, the publication has provided a valid basis for analysing and monitoring the internationalisation of the higher education sector.

Abstract

Conservative pundits allege that the pervasive liberalism of America's colleges and universities has detrimental effects on undergraduates, most particularly right-leaning ones. Yet not enough attention has actually been paid to young conservatives to test these claims-until now. In Becoming Right, Amy Binder and Kate Wood carefully explore who conservative students are, and how their beliefs and political activism relate to their university experiences. Rich in interviews and insight, Becoming Right illustrates that the diverse conservative movement evolving among toda

Abstract

In June 2016, the Norwegian Programme for Capacity Development in Higher Education and Research for Development (Norhed) hosted a conference on the theme of 'knowledge for development' in an attempt to shift the focus of the programme towards its academic content. This book follows up on that event. The conference highlighted the usefulness of presenting the value of Norhed's different projects to the world, showing how they improve knowledge and expand access to it through co-operation. A wish for more meta-knowledge was also expressed and this gives rise to the following questions: Is this way of co-operating contributing to the growth of independent post-colonial knowledge production in the South, based on analyses of local data and experiences in ways that are relevant to our shared future? Does the growth of academic independence, as well as greater equality, and the ability to develop theories different to those imposed by the better-off parts of the world, give rise to deeper understandings and better explanations? Does it, at least, spread the ability to translate existing methodologies in ways that add meaning to observations of local context and data, and thus enhance the relevance and influence of the academic profession locally and internationally? This book, in its varied contributions, does not provide definite answers to these questions but it does show that Norhed is a step in the right direction. Norhed is an attempt to fund collaboration within and between higher education institutions. We know that both the uniqueness of this programme, and ideas of how to better utilise the learning and experience emerging from it, call for more elaboration and broader dissemination before we can offer further guidance on how to do things better. This book is a first attempt.
