This volume challenges the dominant notion of international classroom and the authors approach the reality of international students and professors from several new perspectives. They show that the international student may not necessarily come from overseas and that students from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds are a rich untapped resource in our increasingly interconnected world. The authors also illustrate why abolishing the distinction between national and international classroom is vital to the future of intercultural communication and relationships and offer insights and strategies that can be valuable tools for teachers and instructors at any level.
