Cross Cultural Education

Purpose – As universities and colleges face an increasingly global environment, internationalization is viewed as a critical aspect of education, a fact that has significant academic and economic implications for higher educational institutions worldwide which need to be current with cultural education to adapt to change. Learning from other cultures is essential and valuable for students to connect with other cultures even as they enrich their own lives. Practical processes for developing successful cross-cultural education programs merit serious attention from higher educational institutions. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – The case study explored in this paper demonstrates a practical application of internationalization of music education by examining the experience and outcomes from a cross-cultural program jointly developed by a US and a Korean university. The success of the case study under review hinged on three critical factors for developing a cross-cultural program between international academic partners: organizational commitment, teamwork, and pedagogical content. Findings – The findings support the assertion that the three key factors introduced in the framework can be applied to develop a cross-cultural program between international academic partners. Originality/value – This study proposes a practical framework for developing cross-cultural education programs among higher educational institutions.

Cross Cultural Education

Dr. Dorothy, “Dot,” Ettling was a contemplative practitioner, a spiritual leader, a scholar, and a mentor. She had the phenomenal ability to see the talents of others and enlist their aid in serving marginalized people, whether women walking miles for water in Africa or local mothers needing shelter and job skills. This learning leader recruited (or drafted) colleagues across disciplines to enable communities to build capacities through cross-cultural education and leadership development. This article will examine the work and legacy of Ettling through the lens of Learning as a Way of Leading, focusing on the task of creating community. Implications for practice from this case study of a transformative educator are identified.

Regional Partnerships

Regional, multi-actor environmental collaborations bring together diverse parties to achieve environmental protection and stewardship outcomes. Involving a range of participants helps involve alternative forms of knowledge, expertise, and perspectives; it may also present greater challenges in reaching agreements, particularly when both Indigenous and non-Indigenous parties are involved. The authors conduct a cross-case study of 39 regional partnerships involving Indigenous nations from the Great Lakes basin of North America with the aim of determining the factors that enable Indigenous partners to remain engaged in multi-actor collaborations. Six characteristics influenced Indigenous nations’ willingness to remain engaged: respect for Indigenous knowledges, control of knowledge mobilization, intergenerational involvement, self-determination, continuous cross-cultural education, and early involvement. Being attentive of these factors can help partnerships achieve their environmental goals by keeping important partners at the table.

Cross Cultural Education

Cross cultural education and cross-cultural learning are two mutually integrated and relatively independent logical systems. There are differences in purpose, motivation, path and result, and they are contradictory to each other at some times. The differences between music education and music learning in the system structure begin with motivation, and appropriateness is an important principle to effectively reconcile educational motivation and learning motivation. In the international cooperation projects among music colleges and universities in the 21st century, the appropriateness of cross-cultural education motivation is usually measured by the identity of teaching objects, the value standard of teaching content and the practical significance of teaching purpose. Based on the perspective of cross-cultural music learning, this paper examines the appropriateness of educational motivation in international cooperation projects of music colleges and universities.
