The students’ parents expect these schools to provide a comparable education to what a student would receive in their home or passport country, but as Third Culture Kids, these students may face additional challenges compared with domestic students. This paper, focusing on one student’s lived experience, comes from a larger doctoral research project focusing on the lived experience of English speaking Third Culture Kids who attend an international school where although the language of instruction is English, the language spoken by most of the students is not. Schools need to consider how they support Third Culture Kids and what strategies would ensure the transition experience is a positive one. By talking directly to the students, this interpretative phenomenological analysis research will specifically explore how, from Third Culture Kids’ perspective, schools have supported their transition into a new international school. The paper discusses themes that international schools should consider when dealing with Third Culture Kids including managing the expectations of both the parents and the students. The paper also offers suggestions an international school could adopt that will improve the experience of a Third Culture Kid before they arrive at the school and after they begin as a student. This paper seeks to raise awareness of the negative experience encountered by Third Culture Kids through the voice of one of those students.","PeriodicalId":189595,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Technologies and Lifelong Learning","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133815441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through working with communities, they gain experience and develop skills as they contribute to the common good. This paper presents research with undergraduate students regarding the impact of engaged pedagogies on attitudes centered around a culture of democracy, particularly civic-mindedness and orientation towards the common good. The research uses a mixed-method design and combines a quantitative survey (7 level Likert Scale) with focus group discussions. Fifty-five service-learning students from the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa and 95 students practicing active-citizenship learning at Salzburg University of Teacher Education took part in the study. The analysis integrates results from the survey with qualitative data from 23 focus group discussions. Findings show that both pedagogies in the two samples significantly support a culture of democracy. The authors find that engaged pedagogies can help ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning, when student projects engage in problem-solving in collaboration with the communities.","PeriodicalId":189595,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Technologies and Lifelong Learning","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129907558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
