And\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.idp-connect.com\/articles\/search\/all\/international-market-trends\/research-reports\">quality of learning is one of the three top factors<\/a>\u00a0international students consider when choosing a study destination.<\/p>\n<h3>Rolling back changes isn\u2019t an option<\/h3>\n<p>What was normal practice in pre-COVID education might no longer adequately prepare students for the future.<\/p>\n<p>Our lives and the world of work continue to digitalise. Education must develop the digital literacy and human-centred skills\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/digital-learning-is-real-world-learning-thats-why-blended-on-campus-and-online-study-is-best-163002\">our graduates will need<\/a>\u00a0in this world.<\/p>\n<p>The pivot to online learning exposed international students to many new study options. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>flexible online access to classes and learning materials from anywhere<\/li>\n<li>multi-modality in creating diverse content and in student assignments<\/li>\n<li>multiple platforms and communication channels for diversified feedback and dialogue<\/li>\n<li>captions for recorded videos through tech platforms such as Zoom.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, international students have faced many challenges in their online learning. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.32674\/jis.v6i3.356\">disconnectedness and anxiety<\/a><\/li>\n<li>cross-cultural issues leading to misunderstandings or even conflicts<\/li>\n<li>time-zone differences<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.32674\/jis.v8i4.227\">lack of body language and other cues<\/a>\u00a0that aid understanding<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/jehp.jehp_321_18\">varying levels of digital literacy<\/a><\/li>\n<li>varying access to internet and online platforms due to different circumstances, locations and national policies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>4 ways to keep improving digital education<\/h3>\n<p>Continuing to enhance digital education could help Australian universities to secure their future. Looking at the emerging trends and issues for digital education globally, four areas require action to better meet international students\u2019 needs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Offer flexibility and hybrid learning<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>International students will benefit from further flexibility enabled by hybrid learning. In particular, they will welcome the choice of attending online or campus-based classes. This will help them juggle their studies with jobs and other competing priorities.<\/p>\n<p>Hybrid learning, done well, also offers better access to learning materials and more opportunities for interaction. These interactions might be teacher to student, peer to peer, or peer to community. They can happen in person on campus, or online across time and space.<\/p>\n<p>The demands on universities to design flexible, authentic, active and meaningful learning, both on campus and online, are more pressing than ever. International students won\u2019t travel overseas simply to attend didactic lectures anymore.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Promote belonging and online communities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>International students always\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ojed.org\/index.php\/jis\/article\/view\/2005\">long for human connections and social relationships<\/a>\u00a0in their learning away from home. Connections built through informal and formal learning in culturally immersive environments have been vital to their academic experiences and achievements.<\/p>\n<p>The emergency remote learning over the past two years limited this opportunity. Digital learning environments usually consist of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.teqsa.gov.au\/latest-news\/publications\/foundations-good-practice-student-experience-online-learning-australian\">learning management systems with multiple communication technologies<\/a>. What they lack is the informal \u201cin-between\u201d interactions that students value on campus.<\/p>\n<p>Cultivating a sense of belonging and community online needs to be an indispensable aspect of educational design. Universities have to invest in this process. Students\u2019 own independently created and temporarily used Facebook and WhatsApp chat groups are no substitute for university experiences.<\/p>\n<p>However, universities must ensure digital safety and data privacy for their online communities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Look after student well-being<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Virtual experiences are often framed as transcending various physical and material obstacles. These experiences build on the narrative of being able to \u201cstudy anytime and anywhere\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>However, the pandemic has made us pay closer attention to our digital well-being, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/naerjournal.ua.es\/article\/view\/649\">physicality of human bodies and embodied practices in learning and teaching<\/a>. With online learning, despite the comfort of students sitting at their desk in their own home, it is taxing to sit in front of a computer all day every day.<\/p>\n<p>In the pivot to online learning, some teachers simply moved their classes online. As those class hours and interactions with computer screens and devices accumulated across days and weeks, many students struggled to focus on their studies online.<\/p>\n<p>Universities need to design more carefully for the receiving end of human bodies interacting with online programs. Online course design needs to allow for students\u2019 practical and holistic human needs, beyond academic needs. A focus on digital health and student well-being is essential for them to learn productively and healthily.<\/p>\n<p>For example, back-to-back online classes should not be timetabled for students. They will struggle to focus if required to be online for hours on end.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Internationalise learning for all students<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is crucial for curriculum content and online teaching and learning experiences to be internationalised.<\/p>\n<p>The future world of work is ever more global and digital. To prepare graduates for this highly connected world, universities must develop hybrid curriculum and learning experiences that include international and intercultural dimensions.<\/p>\n<p>By internationalising the hybrid curriculum and digital education, we engage students with both local and global issues. This will enrich learning for all while developing empathy and graduate employability.<\/p>\n<h2>The investment will be worth it<\/h2>\n<p>International students bring\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.universityworldnews.com\/post.php?story=20200820103708349#:%7E:text=International%20students%20make%20a%20vital,%2C%20transport%2C%20entertainment%20and%20retail.\">rich educational, social and economic capital<\/a>\u00a0to Australia. The revenue they provide also heavily\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/7-6-billion-and-11-of-researchers-our-estimate-of-how-much-australian-university-research-stands-to-lose-by-2024-146672\">subsidises other university activities<\/a>\u00a0such as research.<\/p>\n<p>Even though international students are returning physically, we should not downplay the role of digital education. Instead, we need to pay more attention to their needs for digital learning.<\/p>\n<p>We have the opportunity to work with these students to improve digital education practices holistically and to internationalise hybrid learning for all students. We need to create learning spaces that seamlessly dissolve the boundaries of informal and formal, digital and physical.<\/p>\n<p>Quality digital education will enhance Australia\u2019s reputation for international education.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bios:<\/strong> Chie Adachi is an Associate Professor and Director, Digital Learning and Ly Tran is Professor and ARC Future Fellow, School of Education at Deakin University<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Universities are\u00a0welcoming international students back to campuses\u00a0now Australia\u2019s borders are open.
