Retracted: Higher Education Environment Monitoring and Internationalization Strategy

Model Using Big Data Analysis

The retracted paper, "Higher Education Environment Monitoring and Internationalization

Strategy Model Using Big Data Analysis," by Minxuan Zhang, explores the
internationalization of higher education and its strategy model, particularly in the context of
Chinese higher education. The research analyses the accuracy of the internationalization
strategy risk assessment, finding that the model in the paper achieves the highest accuracy
rate at 68.9%. It emphasizes the significance of big data in advancing internationalization
strategies and recommends measures to promote the application of big data in higher
education, such as training professionals and unifying data calibre. The study also discusses
the challenges and opportunities in the internationalization of higher education and
highlights the necessity of adapting to the constantly evolving international environment.
The study further examines the admission rate of business examination and the gross
enrolment rate of higher learning, reflecting the growth of higher education in China. The
paper underscores the importance of international students in measuring universities' talent
cultivation ability and compares the accuracy rates of different methods for assessing
internationalization strategy risk, with the model in the paper proving to be the most
suitable.

A Risk Management Approach for the Internationalization of Higher Education

This paper explores the use of risk assessment frameworks in higher education to assess the
risks associated with international expansion initiatives, specifically focusing on the
establishment of international branch campuses. The paper argues that borrowing risk
assessment frameworks from other disciplines, such as business, can be beneficial for higher
education institutions. It emphasizes the need for more research to develop risk
management models adapted for the higher education context.

The globalization of higher education presents challenges and opportunities for universities,
impacting their ability to attract faculty and students, conduct research, and generate
revenue. It highlights the impact of technological advances, economic globalization, and
increased mobility of people, leading to changes in societies and educational institutions.

The paper discusses the risks associated with internationalization, including the impact of
economic cycles on higher education funding, the potential for brain drain, and the
challenges of navigating cultural, political, and regulatory environments in the host country.

It explores various forms of internationalization, such as establishing international branch

campuses, and the financial risks and regulatory complexities involved. Additionally, it
discusses the need for senior leaders to consider the risks to their institution's mission,
ownership structure, investment, revenue, and regulatory compliance when expanding
internationally.

Furthermore, the paper emphasizes the importance of understanding and addressing risks
related to the academic quality, reputation, and financial sustainability of an international
branch campus. It recommends using risk analysis models borrowed from other disciplines
to guide decision-making in higher education internationalization initiatives.

In conclusion, the paper highlights the need for a comprehensive understanding of the risks
and challenges associated with international expansion and emphasizes the importance of
developing risk management models tailored for the higher education context. It provides a
framework for assessing and addressing the diverse risks inherent in establishing and
operating international branch campuses, highlighting the complexities involved in
international higher education endeavours.

Internationalization in the Higher Education Classroom: Local Policy Goals Put Into
Practice

- Introduction to Student-Centered Internationalization Implementation

The research paper explores the implementation of student-centered internationalization in
a university in Sweden by analyzing classroom interactions. It emphasizes the linkages
between policy and practice, particularly focusing on how local policy goals of
internationalization of higher education are put into practice in the classroom. The study
examines how students and a teacher carry out policy goals in and through interactions,
illustrating internationalization as social actions.
- Skills and Values in Program-Level Internationalization
The paper discusses the critical concepts of knowledge and understanding, attitudes and
values, and skills that students should gain from program-level internationalization. It
emphasizes the importance of providing an international learning experience for all
students and educating them to succeed in a globalized world and internationalized labor
market.
- Assessing Students' Intercultural Knowledge and Competence
In addition, the paper highlights the use of the VALUE rubric Intercultural Knowledge and
Competence to measure students' capacity to identify their own cultural patterns, compare
them with others, and adapt empathically to unfamiliar ways of being. The rubric assesses
students' ability to identify cultural patterns and adapt to unfamiliar ways of being across
different cultures.
- Classroom Interactions and the Goals of Internationalization
The research presents findings from classroom interactions and concludes that learning
outcomes, the composition of the reading list, and the teacher's approach are instrumental
in achieving the goals of internationalization. It suggests that opportunities for teachers to
develop strategies for encouraging, training, and assessing students in relation to
internationalization goals are essential. The study aims to contribute to understanding how
internationalization can be encouraged and practiced in classrooms as social actions and
local practices carried out by teachers and students at a certain place and time.
Internationalization Strategies of Business Schools: How Flat Is the World?

- Exploring Internationalization Strategies in Business Schools

The research paper explores the strategies and outcomes of internationalization in business
schools, particularly in the context of the United States and Europe. The paper discusses the
increasing complexity of business school strategy with respect to internationalization, the
contributions of international students to the economy, and the role of accreditation bodies
and rankings in shaping internationalization strategies.

- Challenges in Strategizing Internationalization

The paper highlights the challenges and complexities faced by business schools in
strategizing about internationalization, drawing attention to the differences between
internationalization and globalization. The authors use a comparative analysis of six case
studies to explore the engines of internationalization and how they influence the paths and
outcomes of internationalization efforts.

- Role of Accreditation and Rankings in Internationalization

The paper also examines the role of accreditation bodies and rankings in shaping
internationalization quality standards and visibility at both national and international levels.
It addresses the different perspectives on internationalization and globalization, the
diversity of strategies based on different audiences, and the varying risk profiles associated
with international and global engagement.
Additionally, the paper discusses the impact of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) on
business schools and the challenges they pose to traditional strategies of knowledge
dissemination and internationalization.
Overall, the paper sheds light on the variety of strategies used by business schools to
internationalize, the differences in engines of internationalization and globalization, and the
implications for the strategic actions of business schools in the context of
internationalization.
