Call for Papers: IIENetworker Fall 2015 Issue, "The Impact of International Education"

 

What exactly does international education accomplish? 

 

As advocates for and enablers of international education, it can be helpful for us to step back and take a fresh look at our collective work. This "show me" issue of IIENetworker magazine will collect and examine available evidence to shed new light on the relevance and impact of international education. We hope this process will also raise new questions about the role international education plays, can play, and should play in our future.

 

Article submissions should focus on a central aim of international education and present concrete evidence showing precisely how international education does or does not achieve this aim. We welcome macro- or micro-level discussions, either based on research, a case study, or a compelling story. We would like the magazine to evaluate the core aims of international education, but we also encourage out-of-the-box thinking about why we do this work.

 

Submissions can focus on either of the core aims below, as well as others: 

• Career readiness
• Multiculturalism
• Innovation and Research
• Economic growth
• Public diplomacy
• Mutual understanding
• International development and peacebuilding

If you are interested in submitting an article for the fall 2015 issue of IIENetworker, please address all inquiries to Jon Grosh at jgrosh@iie.org. Submissions are due by May 15, 2015. For more information on IIENetworker, please visit: www.iie.org/iienetworker.
