Higher education : the learning developed by masters and doctoral students in Education during the internationalization process

Abstract

In the current situation it is considered necessary to develop practices and initiatives related to internationalization during the educational process of Higher Education, intending to prepare students to act and live in a globalized world. Thus, it becomes relevant that higher education institutions seek to promote activities that provide internationalization to students, covering issues such as academic mobility, interaction with international researchers, participation, and presentation of scientific studies at international events, development of comparative research based on global problems, among others. In this sense, the present study aims to analyze the learning developed by Postgraduate students in Education, through experiences developed in the internationalization process, during their academic. The study is characterized as a qualitative research, with data collection carried out through an online questionnaire, containing multiple answers and dissertative questions, applied to master and doctoral students. The collected data were analyzed using the Discursive Textual Analysis (DTA). The theoretical foundation of this study is developed in the light of authors such as Marília Costa Morosini, Luciane Stallivieri, Jos Beelen, Jane Knight, Betty Leask, among others. In this study, it was possible to realize the relevance of internationalization for graduate students, providing opportunities for the development of international, intercultural knowledge, skills, and values, aligned with the current demands to live and work in an increasingly interconnected world.
