Using Postcolonial Scholarship to Address Equity in Transnational Higher Education
Sidhu, Ravinder
Learning and Teaching: The International Journal of Higher Education in the Social Sciences, v8 n1 p73-94 Spr 2015
This article uses postcolonial scholarship to understand the knowledge and cultural politics that underpin Australian-provided transnational higher education (TNHE) programmes in Singapore and Malaysia. A case is made for TNHE practices to develop an "engaged pedagogy" and "ethics of care" as it relates to transnational students in postcolonial spaces. Through this, the article seeks to respond to broader criticisms directed at international education's limited engagement with equity and social justice.
