Negotiating difference through research and teaching strategies in China and Australia

In the seminar, we will identify the process and challenges of conducting this research, and highlight some of the key findings. We will argue that disparate pedagogical strategies exist in China and Australia with consequences for the lecturer - student relationship in Australia, and the success or otherwise of Chinese students studying communication, media and management. If time allows, we will also work through some of the socially, culturally and educationally responsible pedagogical strategies and innovative resources devised by the project specifically to address this situation
