Abstract

ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has had profound impacts on all facets of international education. Not only has it highlighted the inadequacy of existing care arrangements but it has also created new care needs. There is increased recognition among policy makers and education providers that they need to understand and support the wellbeing of international students more effectively – and indeed with greater care. Drawing on sociomaterial theories of care, this article considers the possibilities of care as a guiding principle for orienting the transformation of international education in more productive directions. Its central contention is that a focus on care will be vitally important for fostering the wellbeing of international students and for creating an institutional environment that more successfully attracts, retains, and supports them. Yet more than this, it will be crucial for redefining and realising the ambitious aims of international education itself. This article substantiates these claims by offering three ‘sketches’ of how a focus on care might reframe international education policy, institutional support, and point to new directions in research on international student mobility.
国际教育的关怀转型:可能性、挑战和变革
2019冠状病毒病大流行对国际教育的各个方面都产生了深刻影响。它不仅突出了现有护理安排的不足,而且还产生了新的护理需求。政策制定者和教育机构越来越认识到,他们需要更有效地了解和支持国际学生的福祉——实际上,他们需要更加谨慎。本文以社会物质关怀理论为基础,探讨了以关怀为指导原则,引导国际教育向更具生产力的方向转变的可能性。它的核心论点是,关注关怀对于促进国际学生的福祉以及创造一个更成功地吸引、留住和支持他们的制度环境至关重要。更重要的是,它对于重新定义和实现国际教育本身的宏伟目标至关重要。本文通过提供三个“草图”来证实这些说法,即关注护理如何重塑国际教育政策、机构支持,并指出国际学生流动研究的新方向。
