Making the Invisible Visible: Current Practices and Perceptions of Internationalization of the Curriculum
Weisova, Lucie; Johansson, Ann
Journal of Student Affairs, New York University, v18 2022
This article explores current Internationalization of the Curriculum (IoC) practices and perceptions among teaching staff at a middle-sized Swedish University. It provides information about the background and theoretical framework, explaining the main concepts and the growing importance of IoC in the last decade, touching common myths and misconceptions and introducing Leak's (2015) conceptual framework of IoC. Further, this article elaborates on enablers and blockers that local teaching staff face in their efforts to internationalize the curriculum. This work will serve as a foundation for stimulating the reflection and discussion amongst teams of teaching staff about the IoC in their disciplines and how to navigate future opportunities to further internationalize curricula.
