Teaching International Students

Beyond Awareness - Video Interviews and Resources

Welcome to the Bond University Beyond Awareness video series. This video series has been designed to provide information to faculty members about best practice teaching in Bond's highly intercultural academic environment. In the videos, students and staff describe the challenges and rewards of teaching and learning in Bond's unique educational environment. The video segment titles and topic areas were derived from a 2007-2008 large-scale survey of Bond students (both domestic and international), faculty and staff. The commentary in the videos is completely unscripted - it is people speaking with their own voices about their own experiences using their own words.

We hope you enjoy the video series and that you are able to walk away with some interesting insights, useful teaching tips and heightened awareness of international students' issues. Please do take the time to watch the introductory video first; it provides an important contextual foundation for the remaining "topic-specific" videos in the series.

The primary goal of this video series is to provide information and resources to help move people beyond awareness into action. Enjoy!
