The research discusses media utilization and contents for supporting the internationalization, the consistency of internationalization policies at the macro-level (Ministry), mezzo-level (Directorate General), and micro-level (Sebelas Maret University or known as UNS), and the stakeholders' insights of the internationalization of Higher Education. The data were obtained through in-depth interviews and documentation, and a descriptive-qualitative analysis technique was used. The results showed that UNS utilized various media to support internationalization, namely visual media, auditory media, audiovisual media, and other new media. Media contents include academic information, international research collaboration, and intercultural activities. Policy consistency from macro to micro levels took place only at the activity level, whereas there is no consistency in the mission, strategies, policies, and programs. The stakeholders' insights varied from understanding internationalization entirely as a goal, strategies, activities, media, and intra-cultural dimension standardized at the world level until the internationalization dimension. The implication of this research is the need to harmonize policies at all levels of the organization. Besides, the content of the media should be adjusted to the indicators of internationalization.

Internationalization In Higher Education

Internationalization in higher education seems to be an unavoidable process, albeit temporarily limited by the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease of 2019) pandemic. Specifically, internationalization of the curriculum in the context of higher education is a dimension of this internationalization that is less valued in published studies. This paper, through critical reflection, sought to contribute to a deeper understanding of internationalization of the curriculum in higher education. The methodology used consisted of a bibliographic search in international databases, and the selected documents were analyzed using the content analysis technique. This analysis allowed concluding that internationalization of the curriculum in higher education is a complex process and involves several actors, with various challenges to be considered. For this process to be successful, it involves the ability to be attentive to the cultural multiplicity that will be experienced in classes where this internationalization of the curriculum exists.

PurposeThis paper aim to argue for Cambodia to take internationalization of higher education seriously and strategically to position it for higher education development, and this starts with enhancing its buy-in among the key stakeholders, fine-tuning its conceptualization and contextualization and a government-funded comprehensive policy and investment program.Design/methodology/approachThis paper explores policies and practices of internationalization in Cambodia, using Knight's (2004, 2007) conceptualization of internationalization and Wan's (2018) list of six dimensions, by which the authors track and measure internationalization.FindingsSystematic policy implementation to position internationalization to achieve national and institutional goals is little. Given utilitarianism of internationalization, policy statement has geared more toward employing internationalization to achieve institutional building, in order of significance: mobility, research collaboration, policy formulation and quality control, and much less on networking and aligning with international instruments. Subtle differences among the four universities under investigation exist. While all focus on student and faculty mobility and exchange, some aim at research collaboration and networks; some at indigenous “international” and language programs, and some at joint degree programs. But, internationalization is not a key priority nor is it strategically positioned to achieve institutional aspirations.Practical implicationsWithout comprehensive, strategic policy guidance and implementation from the government, internationalization has taken its own course, and such is not healthy for higher education development.Originality/valueThere are few studies on internationalization in Cambodia. Clayton and Yuok (1997), Clayton (2002) and Pit and Ford (2004) examine politics or its politicization and higher education development after the end of the Eastern Bloc's support (Tek and Leng, 2017). Recent studies (Leng, 2015; Leng, 2016; Yun, 2014) underline institutional case studies to illustrate status, issues and challenges in internationalization. This article attempts to provide an overarching map of internationalization to inform policies and practices toward higher education and national development.

<p>Este artigo trata da avaliação de um expressivo programa do governo federal: Ciência sem Fronteiras. A avaliação de políticas e programas públicos tem sido apontada pela literatura como capaz de subsidiar a formulação de intervenções governamentais e o controle de sua execução. Essa experiência recente de internacionalização do ensino superior no Brasil, manifestada pelo referido programa, apesar de apresentar benefícios potenciais, também aponta deficiências que precisam ser solucionadas. Os resultados deste estudo, que não podem, obviamente, ser generalizados para todas as bolsas já distribuídas no Brasil, mostraram processos bem-sucedidos do Programa Ciência sem Fronteiras, assim como algumas falhas pontuais. Mesmo apresentando limitantes típicos de estudos de abordagem qualitativa, como o reduzido grau de reprodutibilidade, a presente pesquisa estimula a reflexão com respeito aos programas públicos de internacionalização do ensino superior no Brasil e o aprofundamento do tema.</p><p><strong>Palavras-chave</strong>: Avaliação de Programas, Políticas Públicas, Programa Governamental, Ciência Sem Fronteiras.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Evaluación de programas gubernamentales: enfoque en Ciencia sin Fronteras</strong></p><p>Este artículo trata de la evaluación de un expresivo programa del gobierno federal: Ciência sem Fronteiras.

This recent experience of the internationalization of higher education in Brazil, demonstrated by the program described herein, despite presenting potential benefits, also points out deficiencies that need to be resolved. The results of this study, which obviously cannot be generalized to all benefits already distributed in Brazil, have shown the successful processes, as well as occasional failures, of the Programa Ciência sem Fronteiras [Science without Borders Program].

<p id="docs-internal-guid-415f60c0-7fff-f978-3c47-f42704f04796" dir="ltr"><span>The digital era and internationalization of higher education has led to the emergence of novel uses of new media such as the website where new higher education discourses emerge. This study examines the realization of evaluative language in English news texts in a university official website in the context of higher education. Using the Appraisal framework, this study attempts to identify lexicogrammatical resources construing attitude and graduation in eight news texts published in the official website of UNS from January to February 2019. The selected texts cover key news topics, namely reports of achievements, events, and a feature of a university facility. The findings show that attitudinal resources and its graduation are present in the news texts to create a positive image for UNS. Appreciation as the most prevalent type of attitude works to invoke positive judgement of capacity alongside inscribed judgement and affect to relay the image of UNS as a capable university. The study found that, while still following the structure of news texts, news writers for UNS’ official websites use various attitudinal resources in a complex system of prosody-creation to develop positive judgement towards the university’s capacity.</span></p>
