The implications of the growing migrant population and differing communication patterns in the classroom is a highly under-researched area. Cultural Journeys in Higher Education provides a unique insight into the cultural experiences of university recounted through the students' narratives and voices.This book explores the increasingly culturally diverse composition of the student body and its impact on student learning. The need to negotiate differing cultural scripts and adapting to the new cultural landscape when students arrive at university are just a few of the experiences addressed within this important text. Cultural Journeys in Higher Education navigates the issue of curriculum delivery through the eyes of those who receive the education and questions whether a new approach is needed to adapt to an increasingly culturally diverse student body. The student experience is a central focus of this book, giving researchers, practitioners and leaders in education a unique perspective that will enable them to further understand the cultural framework that underpins Higher Education. 410 0$aGreat debates in higher education. 606 $aMulticultural education 606 $aMinorities$xEducation (Higher) 606 $aEducation$xHigher$2bisacsh 606 $aHigher & further education, tertiary education$2bicssc 615 0$aMulticultural education. 615 0$aMinorities$xEducation (Higher) 615 7$aEducation$xHigher. 615 7$aHigher & further education, tertiary education. 676 $a370.117 700 $aBamford$b Jan$01809906 702 $aPollard$b Lucie 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969181603321 996 $aCultural journeys in higher education$94360924 997 $aUNINA
