摘要

跨国教育(TNE)是指高等教育机构跨越国界,在本国之外提供教育体验。这种流动性带来了一些研究挑战,因为这些机构存在于两个世界之间。它们必须平衡母国和东道国的法律要求,驾驭母国和分支机构的行政规范,适应不同的文化和学习期望,甚至服务于不同的学生群体。要了解这种复杂性,研究人员必须采用混合方法,而目前高等教育研究中的混合方法还很有限。在本文中,我们将探讨将 TNE 作为开展研究的独特环境。我们概述了我们的设计选择,以及我们在开展 TNE 研究时所面临的挑战。本文的核心重点是,我们通过一项跨文化案例研究,采用多种方法和混合方法研究,评估劳动力市场结果在一所两国大学学生生命周期关键时刻的作用。通过纳入来自学校、校友、在校生和未来学生的观点,我们对毕业生的感知结果和实际结果进行了全面审视。这个案例生动地说明了单一方法研究的局限性。此外,它还展示了混合方法研究如何有助于在跨国教育研究中产生更有意义的成果。

Research in Transnational Higher Education: Mixed Methods, Mixed Locations, and Mixed Assumptions

Transnational education (TNE) occurs when higher education institutions traverse borders to provide educational experiences outside their home countries. Such mobility creates several research challenges, as such institutions exist between worlds. They must balance home and host country legal requirements, navigate home and branch administrative norms, adjust to differing cultural and learning expectations, and even serve different student populations. To understand this complexity, researchers must employ mixed-method approaches, which are currently limited in higher education studies. In this paper, we explore TNE as a unique setting for conducting research. We outline our design choices and the challenges we faced in conducting research on TNE institutions. For the paper’s central focus, we unpack a cross-cultural case study, which employs multi- and mixed-methods research, to assess the role of labor market outcomes at critical junctures of the student lifecycle at a binational university. By incorporating perspectives from the institution, alumni, and current and prospective students, we present a holistic view of perceived and actual graduate outcomes. This case vividly illustrates the limitations of mono-method studies. Furthermore, it demonstrates how mixed-method studies are useful for generating more meaningful outcomes in TNE research.

期刊介绍: Innovative Higher Education is a refereed scholarly journal that strives to package fresh ideas in higher education in a straightforward and readable fashion. The four main purposes of Innovative Higher Education are: (1) to present descriptions and evaluations of current innovations and provocative new ideas with relevance for action beyond the immediate context in higher education; (2) to focus on the effect of such innovations on teaching and students; (3) to be open to diverse forms of scholarship and research methods by maintaining flexibility in the selection of topics deemed appropriate for the journal; and (4) to strike a balance between practice and theory by presenting manuscripts in a readable and scholarly manner to both faculty and administrators in the academic community.
