• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Scholarly literature has informed different reasons for higher education student attrition. One major challenge most students face, especially doctoral students, is the isolation that hinders them from integrating and becoming part of the learning society. Indeed, the current learning environment in higher education may be challenging to many, especially those without social-relational skills. Globalization and internationalization in higher education have made students and academics mobile. So, students without social relationship knowledge and skills may feel overwhelmed and should be guided to overcome the situation; otherwise, they may drop out of their studies.

Therefore, the author of this book, Elizabeth, emphasizes that mastering social-relational aspects of the contextual learning community can support students in interacting with their learning agencies and beyond. The author calls for students' understanding of five SILLY but essential social relational factors crucial in opening many doors, regardless of the supervisors' abilities, resources availability, and the learning contents. Read the book to gain useful knowledge.
