“This is a thought-provoking and timely volume about the languages, literacies, and power landscapes of international students and language learners who study at colleges and universities in the United States and international branch campuses. In many compelling and well-written chapters, the authors of this volume give voice to the educational and intercultural challenges of these students, while also providing insightful case studies, good practices, and strategies for successful learning.”—Timothy R. White, Faculty Liaison for Education Abroad, New Jersey City University “Driven by the forces of globalization, faculty in higher education institutions today are met with the challenges brought about by the forces of internationalization and diversification. This exciting new collection of teacher action research Internationalization in Action: Leveraging Diversity and Inclusion in Globalized Classrooms comprises a collection of pedagogical approaches across disciplines to integrate goals of diversity, collaboration, and internationalization into these globalized institutes of higher learning. These teacher action research studies delve into critical issues related to the internationalization of higher education and unlock potentialities in the classroom, for example, through exploring the integration of the transcultural/translingual experiences of multilingual learners in the shaping of the curriculum and through the power of pedagogical paradigm shifts, such as the integration of translanguaging in the classroom. This is a must read for educators in higher education!”—Cynthia S. Wiseman, Associate Professor, Borough of Manhattan Community College, City University of New York
