  • ISANA’s guide to pastoral care success

    ISANA NZ President Lesley McDonald says the breakout sessions will equip attendees with strategies, tools and resources to enhance student support at their institutions.

    “Our breakout stream takes an evidence-driven approach to help providers develop strategies and inform investment in student support services,” says Lesley.

    “The sessions will help delegates achieve the outcomes of the Code of Practice, while keeping the student voice at the centre of everything we do.”

    The breakout sessions span international student services, advocacy, teaching and learning, and policy development, and suggest ways in which New Zealand can improve support for international students while they live and study here. 

    Highlights include workshops on supporting international student transitions, developing effective pastoral care programmes with your local community, and preparing for critical incidents.

    Other features include Distinguished Professor Paul Spoonley talking about the possible effects of international demographic trends on the flow of students to New Zealand. An ISANA panel will also explore how individuals can be agents of change in their institutions to effect internationalisation goals, including by promoting the adoption of intercultural competencies.

    ENZ has partnered with ISANA New Zealand to deliver the breakout stream at conference, with a specific focus on student experience. Find out more at www.nziec.co.nz.

  • Massey University’s virtual exchange programme a first for New Zealand

    The first virtual exchange with the University of North Georgia (UNG) began in the first semester of 2020. It focuses on Defence and Security Studies courses at both institutions. 

    “Students benefit by being able to take unique courses for no additional fees from an overseas partner while continuing their studies at their home institution,” Massey University’s Manager of Student Mobility, Greg Huff, says. “The universities benefit by being able to expand their offering of courses and subject areas, while also building linkages with other international partners.”

    Massey University worked with the Ministry of Education to create New Zealand’s first virtual exchange scheme in 2019, before the effects of COVID-19 began to be felt in the international education sector.

    Huff says the exchange began as a way to expand and enhance its students’ academic experiences. Massey expects the demand for virtual exchange opportunities to grow as tertiary providers around the globe continue responding to changes brought on by the pandemic.

    “As the demand for virtual learning opportunities increases due to COVID-19, this is a great opportunity for an institution with a proven track record in the virtual learning space to show institutions around the world what Massey and other New Zealand providers have to offer.” ENZ’s Director of Engagement in the US, DuBois Jennings.

    Other New Zealand institutions can also benefit by using the structure approved by the Ministry of Education to set up their own virtual exchanges.
