The present study investigated undergraduate Canadian music education students’ personal and professional experiences during a three-month residency in China. Participants (N=3), in this case study, were part of a SSHRC funded Canada-China Reciprocal Learning Program and were in the process of completing a Bachelor of Education degree. The participants observed classroom teaching, attended workshops/presentations at Southwest University in Chongqing, China, and gave presentations to Chinese teachers and students. They were asked a wide range of open-ended questions relating to their preconceptions of life in China, coping strategies (e.g., language, local customs, environmental context, etc.), curricular and pedagogical similarities/differences, relationships with their Chinese counterparts, and potential impact on their future educational and professional plans. The findings indicated intellectual, social, and personal growth over this three-month period. Students spoke of overcoming fear and acquiring increased personal/professional self-awareness. However, there was no solid assurance that the participants’ experiences would have a lasting positive effect on their future pedagogical practices.

Intelligence is often used as a benchmark to predict someone's success in the future. Therefore, intelligence is also often used as a reason for someone to label individuals who do not have the abilities that others want. Students of education as prospective educators in the future have a fairly central role in providing understanding about the intelligence that students have to parents, senior teachers, and students themselves. Before becoming an educator, education students are expected to have a good concept of intelligence so that the understanding given can be done precisely. This study aims to reveal the concepts of intelligence subjective to the students of prospective educators from the Javanese and Madurese tribes. The study used a qualitative research approach with a case study model that emphasized the exploration of a system that intertwined with each other. The results showed that education students who originated from Javanese and Madura tribe have a very diverse concept of intelligence. Despite the diverse concept of intelligence, the concept of the student intelligence of both tribes has a relation that complements each other. Students of both tribes also have the view that each individual has different intelligence. Therefore, most of the students from both tribes have been in line with Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences theory. The findings in this study are that interpersonal intelligence is considered to be the most prominent by the Madurese people, because the ability to connect and connect with others is very high.

On behalf of the female students; a questionnaire was designed to make an elicit data from the sample. The collected data was analyzed through t-test. Consistent indicators for low inclination towards higher education were found to be cultural issues, opposition to co-education; low socio-economic status; size of the family, early marriages, distantly situated educational institutions and low parental educational background. Moreover, lack of parental involvement and their differential attitude towards sending their daughters to co-education institutions for higher studies was inversely correlated with female students’ inclination towards higher studies.
