| Abstract: | This issue of "Mapping Community Colleges Around the World: Comparative Perspectives and Collaborative Pathways" turns to partnerships and collaborations within the global college sector: How to get started, what it takes to sustain and grow joint activities, and the (often profound) impact such relationships have on students, faculty, staff, and entire communities. Similar to previous installments, the articles presented here are written from a wide range of perspectives and include detailed case examples as well as lessons learned to inform practice. Scaffolding the case studies, this installment also features articles that explore the philosophical underpinnings of global partnerships and provide a step-by-step guide to creating the campus conditions needed for sustained global engagement. Articles in this issue include: (1) Cultivating Wonder: Curriculum, Context, and Connection (Wojciech (Voytek) Wloch); (2) Cloud Forest Collaboration: Linn-Benton Community College's Costa Rica Exchange Partnership (Lisa Avery and Katie Winder); (3) An Enduring Relational Partnership: A 30-Year Global Collaboration between McLennan Community College and Masaryk University (Amy Antoninka and Johnette McKown); (4) Impactful Collaborations: Using Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) to facilitate meaningful connections across borders at the Alamo Colleges District (Lindsey Kline); (5) Mapping Global Partnerships: The Case of Symbiosis Skills Universities and Aalen University (Swati Mujumdar); (6) Building Strategic Partnerships for Global Education at Monroe Community College: A Case Study with Cornell University's Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies (Christina Heyon Lee); and (7) Establishing Dynamics for Successful Growth of Global Engagement Partnerships: A Step-by-Step Approach (Stacye Fraser Thompson). |
