Description: In this chapter we seek to examine key issues for implementing successful teaching and learning methodologies for incoming on-shore international students (OIS) experiencing the transition from their home country to the Australian institutional, social and educational cultures. The chapter explores educational methodologies considered particularly from the student perspective. We claim that internationalization of teaching and learning is currently at a critical stage, which calls for systematic examination of our academic practices if we are to maintain our position as national providers of future international education offerings.
