Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) and automation are newly impacting the governance of international students, a temporary resident category significant for both direct economic contributions and the formation of a ‘pool’ of potential future immigrants in many immigrant-dependent countries. This paper focuses on tensions within Canada’s education-migration (‘edugration’) system as new technologies intersect with migration regimes, which in turn relate to broader issues of security, administrative burdens, migration governance, and border imperialism. Using an Accidental Ethnography (AccE) approach drawing from practitioner-based legal research, we discuss three themes: (1) ‘bots at the gate’ and the guise of AI’s objectivity; (2) a murky international edu-tech industry; and (3) the administrative burdens of digitalized application systems. We suggest that researchers, particularly in education, can benefit from the insights of immigration practitioners who often become aware of potential trends before those less embedded in the everyday negotiation of migration governance.
人工智能与自动化在留学生移民治理中的应用
人工智能(AI)和自动化正在对国际学生的管理产生新的影响,国际学生是一个临时居民类别,对许多依赖移民的国家的直接经济贡献和潜在未来移民“池”的形成都具有重要意义。本文重点关注加拿大教育-移民(“教育”)体系内部的紧张关系,因为新技术与移民制度交叉,这反过来又涉及到更广泛的安全问题,行政负担,移民治理和边境帝国主义。利用基于从业者的法律研究的偶然人种学(AccE)方法,我们讨论了三个主题:(1)“门口的机器人”和人工智能客观性的伪装;(2)阴暗的国际教育科技产业;(3)数字化应用系统的管理负担。我们建议,研究人员,特别是教育方面的研究人员,可以从移民从业者的见解中受益,这些从业者通常会在那些较少参与移民治理日常谈判的人之前意识到潜在趋势。

期刊介绍: The journal publishes scholarly peer-reviewed articles on international students in tertiary education, secondary education, and other educational settings that make significant contributions to research, policy, and practice in the internationalization of education worldwide. We encourage the submission of manuscripts from researchers and practitioners around the world from a myriad of academic fields and theoretical perspectives, including international education, comparative education, human geography, global studies, linguistics, psychology, sociology, communication, international business, economics, social work, cultural studies, and other related disciplines. We are especially interested in submissions which mark a new and demonstratively significant advancement in research on international students on topics such as: Cross-cultural studies of acculturation, intergroup relations, and intercultural communication Career preparation, employability, and career outcomes of short- and long-term mobility Development of international student social networks Emerging trends related to the mobility of international students and scholars English-mediated instruction (EMI) and second language acquisition (L2) Experiences of globally mobile LGBTQ+ students and other student populations Geopolitical perspectives and policies related to international students and other immigrants seeking education Global learning involving diverse people collaboratively analyzing and addressing complex problems that transcend borders International faculty, teaching assistants, and postdoctoral researchers Multicultural, intercultural, and cross-cultural engagement New educational contexts that involve the use of emerging technologies and online learning International student experiences in transnational higher education providers and programs.
