Abstract

First-year international tertiary students face numerous challenges, with the COVID-19 pandemic shifting many to online learning. These challenges can lead to higher than ideal stress and anxiety, negatively impacting mental health. Applying a ‘writing across curriculum’ approach this study examines whether a ‘writing in discipline’ intervention influences stress/anxiety for such students studying Tourism, Hospitality and Events in Australia. A modified DASS was administered to four cohorts during 2020 and 2021, and pre-post-tests conducted. The intervention helped buffer significant increases in stress, promoted skill development, and enhanced academic confidence. This scaffolded-learning approach is applicable at course/subject, degree, and university levels.

我们能缓冲一下吗?支持一年级国际学生的健康压力和焦虑水平
一年级国际高等教育学生面临诸多挑战,新冠肺炎疫情使许多学生转向在线学习。这些挑战会导致高于理想的压力和焦虑,对心理健康产生负面影响。本研究采用“跨课程写作”的方法,考察了“学科写作”干预是否会影响在澳大利亚学习旅游、酒店和活动的学生的压力/焦虑。在2020年和2021年期间,对四个队列进行了改良的DASS,并进行了前后测试。干预措施有助于缓解压力的显著增加,促进技能发展,增强学术信心。这种脚手架式的学习方法适用于课程/科目、学位和大学级别。
