Abstract:
This study has been an attempt to investigate the process of cross-cultural adjustment of a group of 13 international students studying at the University of British Columbia. The "u-curve" theory of adjustment was tested. It was hypothesized that foreign students would have individual patterns of cross-cultural adjustment. General self-concept, academic self-concept, attitude towards Canadians and attitude towards Canadian culture were used as indices of cross-cultural adjustment. The self-concept dimensions were defined by Ishiyama's self-validation theory (1987,1988). The relationship between all indices were explored. The adjustment patterns of groups of international students (i.e; Male/Female) were also explored. The main method of data interpretation was visual analysis, using two dimensional graphs. C-statistic tests (Tryon, 1982) were used to test the statistical significance of the curves. Three dimensional graphs were also used for data interpretation. Interviews were conducted at the end of the study. It was concluded that the u-curve theory of cross-cultural adjustment was not supported across all. subjects. General and academic self-concepts were found to be highly related. Academic performance was found to have a strong influence upon academic self-concept. No causal relationship was discovered between attitudes about Canadians and Canadian culture. Finally, female western foreign students were found to have the most succussfull adjustment. This was followed in succession by non-western females, western males and finally, eastern males.<br>Education, Faculty of<br>Educational and Counselling Psychology, and Special Education (ECPS), Department of<br>Graduate

Abstract:
American student engagement literature has identified a set of student behaviours and institutional practices shown to lead to student satisfaction, academic success, and retention to graduation among post-secondary students. However, the relevance of these behaviours and the standardized instrument used to measure them may have limited applicability for non-U.S. students. Building on existing quantitative analysis, through focus groups, this study considered how international and Canadian undergraduate students perceived the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) and select behaviours identified in the student engagement literature. This study found that international students misinterpreted key terms such as faculty members and had subtle but important differences in their perceptions of student behaviours and institutional practices compared to the perceptions of Canadian students.<br>Education, Faculty of<br>Educational Studies (EDST), Department of<br>Graduate

Abstract:
Globalization is regarded as the context and facilitating force for the increasingly enhanced internationalization of higher education around the world. As a response to globalization, the internationalization of higher education takes places in various forms and practices in different countries. In contemporary era, international student mobility is by far the main form of cross-border education in the world. In existing relevant literature, the push and pull model is employed by many researchers as the theoretical framework to investigate the motives of international students, the host countries and higher education institutions. There are approximately three million international students studying outside of their home countries (IEE, 2010). China has become the largest source country of international students among these three-million international students. Most of the study-abroad Chinese students from mainland China went to pursue overseas higher education after 1999 when the Chinese government began to enforce the university expansion policy in mainland China. However, few researchers gave attention to this unprecedented out-going heat among Chinese students in the past decade. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors inspiring a large number of Chinese students to study abroad after the 1999 reform in the Chinese higher education sector. The push and pull model was employed as the theoretical framework in this study. A semi-structure one-on-one interview was used as the research method to collect inquired information. Nine Chinese international students who are currently studying at the University of British Columbia were recruited as the research participants. The research results show that there are both shared and individual motives inspiring these nine students to decide on undertaking overseas higher education based on their personal academic, economic and social background.

Abstract:
Perceptions of the Host-National Peers in a Program Designed to Aid the Adjustment of International Students at the University of British Columbia Foreign students want and need social contact with people from the host country when they study abroad. The Counselling Psychology Department at the University of British Columbia has developed a peer program where Canadian students are paired with foreign students in an attempt to ease the feelings of loneliness and isolation which these foreign students often experience. This paper contains a review of related literature, a description of the peer program, an analysis of interviews with host-national participants and recommendations for improvements to the program. The literature review surveys the problems associated with foreign students on North American campuses, several theories of the adjustment process and programs designed to aid that adjustment. Some factors which help students adjust to a new environment are counselling and peer support. Host peers commented on how and why they became participants in the program. They revealed some of the problems associated with being a helping peer. The benefits they received from the program were many but they were able to identify several aspects of the program which could be changed to make the program more rewarding to themselves and to the foreign peers.<br>Education, Faculty of<br>Educational and Counselling Psychology, and Special Education (ECPS), Department of<br>Graduate

Abstract:
AbstractSince 1996, Columbia University and Barnard College have required that undergraduate environmental majors take “Earth’s Environmental Systems: Climate.” The class is co-taught by 2–3 professors and is offered by different teams in fall and spring semesters. As one of the longest, continuously running, required classes on climate in the world, tracing changes in the content of this class, as well as the perspectives of its professors and students, provides insight into the evolution of climate change from a component of Earth’s system, to an international crisis. This chapter discusses the experiences of teaching undergraduate students - both science majors and non-majors - about Earth’s climate system and the risks facing the planet and society. Drawing on 845 student course evaluations and 20 survey responses from co-teachers and teaching assistants, we trace how the course, students, and faculty have evolved over two decades (1996–2018) as the earth warmed, environmental and ecosystems changed, projections of future impacts became more robust, demand for adaptation strategies and mitigation actions increased, and public discourse became polarized. We reflect on how, as we adjusted to these trends, we moved beyond our scientific training to discuss decision-making and actions within an increasingly charged national discourse.

Full text
Abstract:
Almost from its inception, the Occupy movement in America was beset by criticisms alleging that liberation could not be achieved through occupation, since the latter remained inseparable from the violent history of colonial conquest. However, American history offers concrete examples of anti-colonial struggles in which activists embraced occupation as the central means of achieving their aims. In addition to cases like the Indians of All Tribes occupation of Alcatraz (1969-71) and the occupation of Columbia University by Harlem-based Civil Rights and Black Power militants (1968), closer theoretical consideration reveals that politics itself—whether carried out in the name of conquest or of liberation—both presupposes and demands occupation. Consequently, the anti-colonial critique of the Occupy movement must be carefully re-evaluated.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses organizations that are active in the field of human rights, which make distinctive contributions by focusing on abuses of rights in a particular country or locality. It describes how global organizations address violations of rights suffered by discrete segments of the population, such as gays and lesbians, indigenous peoples, women, members of racial, religious or ethnic minorities, or persons suffering from mental or physical disabilities. The chapter talks about Louis Henkin, a professor of law at Columbia University, who was long regarded as the preeminent American scholar in the human rights field. It mentions the Lawyers Committee, which enlisted hundreds of American lawyers to provide free legal representation to applicants for asylum in the United States in immigration proceedings. It also illustrates the Lawyers Committee's campaign that aid lawyers in other countries who were persecuted for defending human rights.

Abstract:
Abstract This volume, the product of a symposium on “Transparency and Consistency in International Law: Is There a Need for a Review Mechanism?” held at Columbia University on April 4, 2006, addresses a unique emerging regime that is neither the product of a single multilateral treaty nor the subject of an overreaching international institution. The international rules governing foreign direct investment (FDI) do not arise from anything resembling the enormous multi-year trade rounds that produced the World Trade Organization (WTO) and its impressive post-Uruguay Round dispute settlement system. Unlike the rules governing trade in goods, the world’s FDI rules emerge instead from some 2,500 bilateral agreements as well as an increasing number of free trade agreements that contain investment guarantees, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)’s Chapter 11. Even while WTO lawyers still debate the virtues of increased transparency—such as whether or when amici briefs from non-state entities ought to be considered by the WTO’s dispute settlers or whether the emerging WTO case law has indeed generated harmonious interpretations over time—the WTO still inspires the envy of investment lawyers.

Abstract:
We describe three Mathematics Education initiatives launched as a result of the global pandemic. (i) The Eastman-funded MathElites professional development (PD) program for K-8 teachers was offered online. Teachers were vastly more involved due to their greater autonomy. Old outcomes and those from 2020 will be compared. (ii) ETSU’s Governor’s School, which offers high school students Statistics and Biology college courses, went online too, and we used Columbia University Virology lessons and Covid19 data sets to make the courses more engaging to students. Student projects were assessed to be of a higher quality than in years past. (iii)With Niswonger Foundation support,we have launched a PD thrust for teachers in 2021, in the new areas of Epidemiology, Artificial Intelligence, and Statistics-with-R.

Abstract:
This paper describes two gas turbine related research projects in the department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia. Of the two projects described, one involves fundamental turbomachinery research while the second is a more applied project concerned with gas turbine based cogeneration systems in process industries. In the fundamental research area, both an experimental and computational study of unsteady boundary layer development on turbomachinery blading is described. The applied research program involves an engineering and economic assessment of a gas turbine based cogeneration system for sawmills. The system is designed to use wood-waste generated during the saw-milling process as a source of heat for an indirectly fired gas turbine. Studies to date indicate that such a system could result in many sawmills becoming completely energy self-sufficient.

Abstract:
Abstract In order for students to enhance their understanding of engineering concepts, hands-on experience proves to be essential. Incorporating the design component in undergraduate engineering education has been an immediate and pressing concern for educators, professional societies, industrial employers and agencies concerned with national productivity and competitiveness. It is crucial to enhance undergraduate design and research experiences to meet both societal needs and the growing job-market demands. The University of the District of Columbia (UDC), the District of Columbia’s only public institution of higher education, and a historically black college and university (HBCU), had recently modernized its undergraduate curricula in engineering to meet that need. This paper presents a case study of recent implementation of student experiential learning approach through undergraduate research experience course (MECH 302). This student group participated in the 2019 US National Aeronautics and Space Administration Revolutionary Aerospace Systems Concepts – Academic Linkages (RASC-AL) Challenge, in which they will develop concepts that may provide full or partial solutions to specific design problems and challenges currently facing human space exploration.

Abstract:
In order to meet the increasing societal and market demand for a diverse and well-trained Biomedical Engineering (BME) workforce, the University of the District of Columbia (UDC), the nation’s only urban land-grant institution, the District of Columbia’s only public institution of higher education, and a historically black college and university (HBCU), nurtures BME activities focused on exposure, training and cultivation through research and experiential learning. Undergraduate design projects and research-based learning opportunities in BME are key program ingredients. This paper presents the former (i.e., three, BME-related undergraduate senior Capstone Design projects that target devices to aid patient immobility) namely, the design of: 1) an ankle foot orthosis, 2) an upperlimb robotic hand prosthetic, and 3) a chairless chair lower limb exoskeleton. A current focus of the UDC BME program is Rehabilitation Engineering (i.e., interventions and devices aimed at aiding those with mobility impairments). We briefly discuss the necessity for rehabilitation-focused, biomedical-related undergraduate experiences and training for underrepresented minority students at UDC, in particular, undergraduate engineering education through multidisciplinary BME projects that foster hands-on creativity towards innovative designs. In addition to critical design experiences and undergraduate training in BME, devices may have the potential to develop into new commercial technologies and/or research projects that will aid and enhance the quality life of individuals suffering from a wide-range of mobility-related issues.

Abstract:
Over time, forest education has had to adapt to keep up with global changes and to accomodate the needs of students and society. While facing pressing global issues like climate change, deforestation, illegal logging and food security, the role of higher forest education has shifted away from traditional teaching approaches and practices to methods that emphasize sustainable development, community-based management and environmental conservation in forestry. In doing so, forest education has cultivated human expertise that understands the complexity of ever-changing environments, masters state of the art technologies to manage fores and natural resources, and is capable of creating, communicating and implementing related policies in global communities and societies. In this context, educational technology and online lerning enable flexible, accessible, effective, and high-quality forest education. A case study of a Sustainable Forest Management Online program led by the Faculty of Forestry, University of British Columbia (UBC) shows that appropriately integrating educational technologies into an interntionally developed and recognized high quality curriculum is an effective way to create accessible and affordable forest education in meeting the demand of evolving societal and environmental conditions.Keywords: forest education; educational technology; international collaboration, open educational resources

Abstract:
Abstract The University of the District of Columbia (UDC), the only public university in the nation’s capital and a land-grant university, has been participating in the NASA Human Exploration Rover Challenge for the past several years. The teams are asked to design and fabricate a two-person human-powered rover capable of traversing a course designed by NASA to simulate various terrain. The rover requires a significant redesign each year; therefore, these disciplinary benefits and opportunities encouraged the students to form a team in 2022. The team leveraged UDC’s new NASA-funded Center for Advanced Manufacturing in Space Technology &amp; Applied Research (CAM-STAR) and its research facilities to design the rover. This paper introduces the rover competition for 2022 and the UDC team’s new designs using advanced and additive manufacturing. Also, the skill sets learned by the diverse population of the team members are discussed, along with critical engineering techniques using various forms of engineering.
