“The purposeful integration of international and
intercultural dimensions into the formal and
informal curriculum for all students within
domestic learning environments.”

Values-based reasons for
Internationalisation at Home

Numerous international studies show that international experience offers significant benefits to students, especially with regard to transferable/employability/transversal skills
(See Jones, E. (2013) Internationalization and employability: the role of intercultural experiences in the development of transferable skills Public Money and Management Vol. 33, No. 2 pp 95-104)
Pragmatic reasons for IaH

What proportion of students in your
institution have an international study,
work, volunteering experience as part of
their programme?• 0-10%
• 11-20%
• More than 20%

Transformative ‘internationalisation’ can come not only through international engagement but through encounters with cultural “otherness” of any kind.

Practice

1. Offers all students global perspectives within their
programme of study, whether or not they spend time
abroad.• IaH is not a substitute or a ‘second-best
option’
• IaH integrates global perspectives, enriching the quality of a study programme.
• Effective means of actively including diverse cohorts of students into teaching and learning processes.

![Page 15: Welcome to the opening plenary INTERNATIONALISATION AT ...f34f5799-db74-4deb-b94a-d66b1e2605… · 9. Can include virtual mobility through online working with partner universities](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050209/5f5c459b53f7836ec536f030/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
2. Moves beyond electives or specialised
programmes.
• Not merely students who may already be
interested, but the entire student cohort.
• Elements of internationalisation integrated
systematically into the compulsory curriculum.
Elspeth Jones and Tanja Reiffenrath (2018) Internationalisation at Home in Practice
![Page 16: Welcome to the opening plenary INTERNATIONALISATION AT ...f34f5799-db74-4deb-b94a-d66b1e2605… · 9. Can include virtual mobility through online working with partner universities](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050209/5f5c459b53f7836ec536f030/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
3. Involves developing international and intercultural
perspectives through internationalised learning
outcomes in the formal curriculum.
• Example 1: “Students demonstrate understanding of the basic principles of production ecology and agrosystemsmodelling and their implications for diverse cultural and location-specific contexts”
• Example 2: “In diverse teams, students are capable of debating the local as well as global impact of relevant risk management strategies.”

4. Is supported by informal (co-) curriculum
activities across the institution.
• Learning not only takes place within formal classroom settings
• More informal activities lend substantial strength to IaH and can help deliver comprehensive internationalisation:– intercultural communication workshops
– buddy programmes
– language tandems
– service learning activities
– cultural programmes

5. Makes purposeful use of cultural diversity in the
classroom for inclusive learning, teaching and assessment
practice.
• IaH is strongly learner-oriented.
• Finding ways of integrating
experiences and knowledge of
both internationally mobile
students and local students from
diverse backgrounds.

6. Creates opportunities for student engagement with
‘cultural others’ in local society.
• IaH motivates students to seek ‘the intercultural’ as well as ‘the international’
• Effects of globalisation, migration, and cultural diversity on their doorstep.
• Formal learning scenarios, such as community research projects, might go hand in hand with service learning, excursions, or class visits by community members.

7. Involves all staff, not only academics and
international officers.
• Teaching and the
curriculum are at the
heart of IaH
• However, academics
need support from
colleagues across the
universityElspeth Jones and Tanja Reiffenrath (2018) Internationalisation at Home in Practice
• Curriculum developers
• Library
• IT services
• Accommodation
• Human Resources and staff development
• Restaurants and food outlets
• Quality enhancement
• Student support– disability services, visas, counselling and advising
• Governance and management
• Finance

8. May or may not include teaching in English or
another lingua franca.
• IaH entails a shift in orientation, not merely translation of an existing curriculum.
• May be delivered either through local language or English-medium programmes.
Elspeth Jones and Tanja Reiffenrath (2018) Internationalisation at Home in Practice
But delivering the same content in a different language does not deliver
change of mindset
![Page 23: Welcome to the opening plenary INTERNATIONALISATION AT ...f34f5799-db74-4deb-b94a-d66b1e2605… · 9. Can include virtual mobility through online working with partner universities](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050209/5f5c459b53f7836ec536f030/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
9. Can include virtual mobility through online
working with partner universities.
• Virtual collaborations, shared teaching materials,
virtual guest lectures
• Expand perspectives in classroom discussions
• In more collaborative formats, enhance their
communicative and social skills.

10. Fosters purposeful engagement with
international students.
• Stimulates exchange and collaboration among students from diverse backgrounds
• Successful IaH does not depend on the presence of international students.
