International Student Transitions
Author: Maureen Snow Andrade
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 152753569X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
US higher education institutions host more than a million international students, many of whom speak English as a second language (ESL). As this number is projected to grow, it is vital that new curricular and non-curricular approaches to English language development are considered, including rigorous evaluation processes. This book introduces a framework to guide institutions in examining their views and beliefs regarding language acquisition and current approaches to international student success. It makes a distinction between a philosophy of support and a philosophy of development with a focus on the latter. It provides stakeholders with theoretical and practical foundations from which they can design, develop, and implement new models for students’ linguistic and cultural growth. Application of the framework will encourage institutions to examine support models that have been in place for decades and develop effective processes for generating innovative programming and practices aimed at helping international ESL students achieve their educational goals.

Success Today
Author: Nick Nanton
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780996197816
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
Few topics have been written about as much as SUCCESS. Even among most seriously-discussed subjects like religion and politics, the concept of success plays a critical role. Something just as interesting is that success means different things to each of us. This reflects the individuality that we enjoy. In a commercial context, success is most often measured using the currency of exchange as well as the achievement of goals. Philosophically, success may even be the attainment of a mental state of satisfaction as a result of your actions or thoughts. Whichever way you look at it, success is a topic of interest to everyone. The PremierExperts(r) in this book allow you see their formulas for success, and through their experiences, offer many valuable lessons (including errors to avoid) that are particularly meaningful. Just as action is an integral part of success, mentoring means a faster rate of achievement. However, despite our changing world, we know that the basic tenets of success remain the same, no matter how fast the pace. The PremierExperts(r) in Success Today are willing to mentor you. They have lived what it is all about. . . . Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure. Confuciu

Sport in Iceland
Author: Vidar Halldorsson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 113481237X
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Iceland is a tiny Nordic nation with a population of just 330,000 and no professional sports leagues, and yet its soccer, basketball and handball teams have all qualified for major international tournaments in recent years. This fascinating study argues that team sport success is culturally produced and that in order to understand collective achievement we have to consider the socio-cultural context. Based on unparalleled access to key personnel, including top coaches, athletes and administrators, the book explores Icelandic cultural capital as a factor in sporting success, from traditions of workmanship, competitive play and teamwork to international labour migration and knowledge transfer. The first book to focus specifically on the socio-cultural aspects of a small nation’s international sporting success, this is an original and illuminating contribution to the study of the sociology of sport. Sport in Iceland: How small nations achieve international success is fascinating reading for team sport enthusiasts, coaches, managers and organisers, as well as for any student or scholar with an interest in the sociology of sport, strategic sports development, sports policy or sports administration.
