Purpose: This study examines the variables associated with the likelihood of horizontal mismatch among Chilean university graduates, focusing on the role of field of study, university prestige and gender. Design/methodology/approach: A binary logistic regression model was estimated using data from a survey conducted on a representative sample of…

The global dominance of English has prompted debates on linguistic imperialism, wherein English is seen as marginalizing local languages and cultures. In postcolonial contexts, scholars like Ngugi wa Thiong'o argue that colonial languages were used to subjugate indigenous cultures. Iraq, with its history of British influence and globalization…

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to explore the perceived concept of "going gradeless" among education master's students and academics within a Hong Kong university. This study aims to explore differing perspectives on "going gradeless" and identify the key potential issues associated with its implementation in higher…

In recent decades, there has been a proliferation of neuropsychology training programmes globally, including in South Africa and other low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Almost invariably, programmes in those countries privilege colonial origins of knowledge while excluding local epistemologies. Our objective in this conceptual article is…

Despite a large earnings premium for bachelor's degree completion in general, graduates from low-income families earn substantially less than graduates from high-income families. While prior research has documented the role of college quality and major choice in explaining these gaps, we examine undermatching on a different margin: the first…

The nexus between international higher education, employment, policy, and wider society have been recognised. Increased international students are likely to create the fluctuation in labour supply in their home and host country is not a new phenomenon. Internationally, there is a myriad of programs and strategies designed to retain talents.…

Misinformation in digital media is growing at an exponential rate. The rapid growth of technologies such as social media and artificial intelligence necessitates the skills to navigate through the vast amount of digital media information. Education in digital media literacy is critical to ensure students do not fall prey to easily manipulated…

Higher education is an increasingly necessary achievement to attain employment. However, even in cases where a student has the academic skills to succeed, educational environments may not support students across all other domains necessary for education success, including social and communication needs. This is especially true for students with…

This study explored the utilization of a collaborative teaching strategy to enhance online instruction among graduate school students. Qualitative action research design was utilized to further determine possible areas for improvement of the implementation of the strategy. Thirty-eight graduate students were interviewed to assess the use of the…

International students frequently encounter cultural and language barriers abroad, which can disrupt their integration and negatively impact their academic performance, social well-being, and increase feelings of loneliness and anxiety. In an effort to explore the intricate dynamics between cultural intelligence, linguistic confidence,…

This article provides the perspectives of Chinese international graduate students about student engagement while attending a university in Canada. The prominent Western perception of student engagement in Canadian universities emphasizes student-oriented and active-participation to hopefully enhance student academic success and better social…

A critical turn in heritage studies that integrates nonexpert (including colonial) voices presents significant didactic and educational challenges. How do we teach heritage practices in an intercultural, and previously colonial, context? The project Making Bonairean Heritage Together was designed as a showcase to equip students with essential…

In collaborative learning, students may follow different trajectories that evolve over time. This study used a multilayered approach to map the temporal dynamics of online problem-based learning (PBL) and the transition of students' roles across time over a full year duration. Based on data from 135 dental students across four consecutive courses…

While the mobility patterns of first-degree students and graduates have been extensively researched, there is limited understanding of the international mobility of doctoral graduates. This article examines the early outbound mobility of UK domiciled doctoral graduates. Informed by human capital and signalling theory, we analyse the Higher…

This reflection offers a student perspective on integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) in graduate education, focusing on collaboration rather than replacement. Drawing on my experience in a doctoral seminar on the intellectual history of educational technology, I examine four key instructional practices that shaped meaningful AI use:…
