Moving toward the Internationalization of an Academic Society: Twenty-First Century Perspectives and Collaborations
Block, Betty Ann; Tietjen-Smith, Tara M.
International Journal of Kinesiology in Higher Education, v5 n2 p45-55 2021
International perspectives and collaborations are critical to the health of the kinesiology discipline during this supercomplex age. To that end, the National Association for Kinesiology in Higher Education (NAKHE) has adopted internationalization goals that support international faculty, joining forces with other academic societies across the world to promote innovation in programming, and to create international scholar leaders. Ideas related to specific internationalization virtues within kinesiology that were developed with international colleagues in Montreal, Canada at the PHE Canada Research Council Forum (May 2019) and at the Association Internationale des Écoles Supérieures d'Éducation Physique (AISEP, International Association for Physical Education in Higher Education) Conference at Adelphi University, Garden City, New York (June 2019) will be discussed. Themes coalesced into specific virtues including Collaboration, Valuing Diversity, Openness to Interdisciplinarity, Innovation, and Leadership. These themes will be discussed and put into the context of NAKHE's internationalization efforts.
