Title: The transcultural academic: Cosmopolitanism and the imagined community of the global academy Author: Guerin, Cally; Green, Ian Abstract: The forces of globalisation and internationalisation are currently transforming the demographic of Australian universities. A significant feature of this is geographic mobility for both academic staff and students. However, while much of the research focuses on the experiences of international students, very little has been published on the academic staff who relocate from other cultures and countries to work in Australian universities. This paper reflects on the preliminary findings of a study undertaken at The University of Adelaide in South Australia which investigated the experiences of English as an Additional Language (EAL) academics. It considers the concept of cosmopolitanism in the context of the imagined community of the contemporary internationalised academy.

Title: A model of researcher education that facilitates international research collaboration and internationalization of the curriculum Author: Picard, Michelle Yvette; Richard Russell Abstract: This paper describes the development of the Integrated Bridging Program-Research (IBP-R) and its influence on other researcher education programs at the University of Adelaide. It describes how the emphasis has shifted from a remedial language program for international research students to a program that empowers students as autonomous 'ethnographers' of their practice as well as explicitly develops the generic and discipline-specific skills and competencies necessary for postgraduate study. It also demonstrates how a concurrent program that engages with the students' supervisors and embeds researcher education in institutionary practices has facilitated genuine cultural exchange. The paper further details how the program has become increasingly individualized based on the various needs of its participants. It shows how local students have been engaged and how its principles have been applied in other researcher education programs at the University. Practical tools arising from the IBP-R are also presented. Finally, the possibility of programs based on its principles are their potential for facilitating student exchange and international research collaboration are explored.

Title: Approaches to learning and student self-efficacy in Project-Based Marketing education Author: Habel, Chad Sean; Habel, Cullen Andrew Abstract: This study explores academic practice and student outcomes in three Marketing topics at an Australian university. A questionnaire collected data on approaches to learning and academic self efficacy, and data analysis sought to explore relationships between these two constructs as well as the effect of study after the topics. The research found a strong relationship between approach to learning and academic self efficacy, but surprisingly little support for work-integrated learning as a means of improving students’ self efficacy.
