Dall’orientamento transitorio all’orientamento generativo: una sfida educativa interculturale

2022

Il contributo offre una riflessione pedagogica, a partire dalla letteratura di riferimento, sulle forme di orientamento formativo, educativo e professionale per gli adolescenti migranti inseriti nel sistema scolastico italiano. Nella nostra società attuale, in cui i contesti educativi e scolastici sono sempre più multiculturali, la capacità di sapersi orientare implica nello studente, così come nell’insegnante, la predisposizione a sviluppare competenze cognitive, emotive e relazionali, atte a sapersi relazionare con i contesti comunitari e di vita la cui trasformazione dipende non soltanto dal processo orientativo ma anche da fattori socioculturali afferenti a valori, tradizioni e culture,…

International Student Migration in Finland

2021

There is increasing attention on the retention of international students with many stakeholders desiring to keep international students for long-term economic growth. This study examines the factors affecting international students to stay in Finland five years after initial enrolment with particular focus on the role graduation plays in students staying or leaving. Tracking 11 (years) entering cohorts for five years across national (Finland) data registries, we found evidence of an inverse relationship between graduation, degree type, and the probability of staying; higher the degree level of graduation, the decrease in probability an international student stays. We conclude that while gra…

Intra-regional mobility of PhD students in the European Union : the outcomes of region-making policy?

2022

This paper examines the flow of intra-European Union (EU) students for doctoral (PhD) studies to identify reasons for differences in international student mobility and migration (ISM) among member states. Rather than conceptualising intra-EU PhD student ISM only through push–pull forces, we theorise the intra-EU PhD ISM is associated with relative levels of national resources or levels of capital. We investigate the intra-EU PhD ISM through dyadic country pairings allowing the use of Gravity models to estimate the effect of variables associated with stocks of capital ascribed to a country to the change in the number of PhD students. The findings of this study indicate while there is asymmet…
