Global Learning Now Podcast
Episode 2: Insights & Inspiration from Research in International Education New!
In this podcast, three NAFSA members (Melissa Whatley, PhD, Bryan McAllister-Grande, EdD, and Eduardo Contreras EdD) discuss the critical importance of research in international education, by considering key insights from: International Higher Education Research: The State of the Field (McAllister-Grande, and Whatley 2020). Together, the guests:
- discuss their own fluid identities as researchers, scholars, or some combination of both;
- review ways in which the pandemic and current state of inequity and racial discord may influence how the field is studied; and
- find inspiration in avenues for new research for both pure and applied purposes.
