Abstract

It is well established that international students attending higher education institutions in Australia and other parts of the world face challenges that can affect their state of well-being and connectedness. Higher education institutions have attempted to counter these issues by providing specifically designed programs with varying success. This study builds on some of the more successful programs that draw on the relationship between creativity and collaboration. The program aimed to foster international students’ well-being by teaching them how to harness their creative potential and explore through stand-up comedy the funny side of life as international student in Australia. The analysis shows that the program positively enhanced well-being by fostering a sense of connectedness and by providing a space to take risks in a safe and supportive fashion. Data also indicated that the program contributed to the development of knowledge and skills transferrable to other academic and non-academic contexts.

留学生创作喜剧促进身心健康和相互联系

众所周知，在澳大利亚和世界其他地区的高等教育机构就读的留学生面临着各种挑战，这些挑战可能会影响他们的幸福感和联系。高等教育机构试图通过提供专门设计的课程来解决这些问题，但取得的成功却不尽相同。本研究借鉴了一些利用创造力与协作关系的成功项目。该计划旨在通过教授留学生如何发挥自己的创造潜能，并通过单口相声探索留学生在澳大利亚生活的有趣一面，从而促进留学生的身心健康。分析表明，该计划培养了一种联系感，并提供了一个在安全和支持的方式下冒险的空间，从而积极提高了幸福感。数据还显示，该计划有助于发展知识和技能，并将其运用到其他学术和非学术环境中。
