However, it is often unclear exactly what is meant by engagement. This book goes beyond the policy rhetoric to provide a practice-based explication of international student engagement and its enabling institutional conditions. By utilising a social practice conceptual model, the book explains the multiple dimensions of engagement that are often conflated in policy: the antecedents to engagement, the actions of engaging, and the achievements and outcomes of engagement. As a result, the book is able to address issues such as how English comes to matter in international student academic practice; the teaching and assessment approaches that promote international student engagement; and the metacognitive, cognitive and affective strategies that international students use to achieve academic and personal transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite an extended history of international education, questions persist about how to educate international students.

This book encourages us to be brave and take risks, open up to radically new learning and more plural identities, and never stop looking for common ground with ‘the other’ who is also ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e * Simon Marginson, UCL Institute of Education, UK *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is relevant in times of the hyper-marketing of international higher education around the world.
