2. 教育國際化的定義

教育的國際化是對全球化的反應(yīng)，是對國家獨特性的認識（奈特1999, p. 14）。這意味著它不是一個激進的潮流。也就是說，，這是全球化的自然潮流。要精確定于教育全球化就必須定義全球化。奈特（1999, p. 14）把全球化定義為各國之間的文化、技術(shù)、經(jīng)濟等方面的文化差異，由于每個國家的特點，都有不同的影響。

教育國際化的工作定義是國際教育的統(tǒng)一進程。（奈特1999, p. 16）

1. 引言——Introduction

2. 教育國際化的定義——Definition of the internationalization of education

The internationalization of education is reaction to the globalization with recognition of uniqueness of the nation (Knight 1999, p. 14). This means that it is not an aggressive flow. In other words, it is a natural flow by globalization. For precise definition of the internationalization of education, globalization also has to be defined. Knight (1999, p. 14) defines that globalization is the stream such as culture, technology and economy between countries, and each country has a different influence because of characteristic of each country.

Working definition of internationalization of education is a unify progression about international education (Knight 1999, p. 16).

3.利益與挑戰(zhàn)——Benefits and Challenges

The internationalization of higher education in Australia has led to benefits and it creates some new challenges.

3.1 利益——Benefits

The internationalization has good influences on both international student and Australian.

3.1.1 國際學(xué)生的利益——Benefits for international student

Australia's exchange rate, location and policy might be big reasons why many international students come to Australia to study (Handa 2004, p. 2). These are:

更便宜的美元——Cheaper dollar:

Expenses are one of the most important factor for international students to choose a country, because studying abroad is expended a lot of cost. Australia's exchange rate is relatively lower than the other English-speaking countries.

接近亞洲——Proximity to Asia:

Handa (2004, p.2) mentions that over 75% of international students are Asians. Australia is located to the south of Asia, so it is nearby Asia. Easy of proximity can reduce international students' time and money, such as airmail fees, aviation fees and the equation of time from Asia.

多元文化——Multi-culture:

Australia is a multicultural country. Therefore many nation communities were already formed. Students can experience many cultures of other countries, and also they can purchase their country's things easily.

3.1.2 澳大利亞的利益——Benefits for Australia

更多的外匯收入——Great foreign exchange earner:

International students spend huge amounts of money. For example, they have to pay tuition fee, visa, insurance fee, general living expenses and overseas student health cover. Moreover, international students cannot receive a scholarship, and also they cannot work over 20 hours a week because of their visa problem.

創(chuàng)造工作機會——Creation of occupation:

Internationalization of education creates many occupations, such as student agent and language school lecturer.

人力資源——Human resource:

3.2 挑戰(zhàn)——Challenges

班級的被動態(tài)度——Passive class attitude:

According to Handa (2004), many international students do not have positiveness in the class. There are two main reasons. One reason is English, because English is not their first language. They have a limitative English problem of expression and understanding, so they cannot have confidence in their speaking. The other reason is different culture background. For example, most of Asia's class style is passivity, so Asian students have been adapted to listening class.

與本地學(xué)生缺少交流——Lack of interaction with local students:
