“…By utilising language learning technology, instructors can assist students in becoming better equipped for action (Boix Mansilla & Jackson, 2011). Mobile devices offer a wide variety of language learning applications and have a substantial impact on college students' vocabulary and grammar understanding (Alkhezzi, 2016;Dange, 2018). One Chinese institution found that WeChat, a well-known social media platform, was very helpful in teaching students English as a second language (Shi et al, 2017).…”

PurposeThe purpose of the current chapter is to give an overview of the theoretical framework of internationalisation at Home in higher education institutions (heis), as well as its mechanisms and achievements. To this end, several learning theories evoked within literature are explained in relation to the relatively newly coined concept. The chapter also highlights the different competences, individual actions, and institutional actions necessary for internationalisation at Home. Study design/methodology/approachFirst, I explore the different factors that made the need for internationalisation in hei s urgent. Second, I enumerate the challenges that affect the efficient and smooth implementation of internationalisation especially with the constantly changing national, regional, and global contexts in which h e i s are operating. Third, I suggest internationalisation at home as a substitute or complete internationalisation. Therefore, I explain several learning theories relating to the concept. I also highlight the different individuals and institutions involved in internationalisation at Home. Findings Internationalisation at Home should be adopted as an alternative to regular internationalisation in times of crisis. Otherwise, it can be employed as a complementary individual and institutional action within the overall strategy of h e i s internationalisation. Originality/valueResearching internationalisation at Home is a potential area of research that needs further interest. This chapter paves the way for different avenues of research within the realm of i a h. The Need for Internationalisation in hei sThis need to implement internationalisation in h e is is a direct consequence of global factors. The following are some of the critical reasons Internationalisation at Home: The Theoretical Framework 15 that made internationalising higher education an urgent necessity, not a mere commodity. The Workplace Metamorphosis into MulticulturalThe drastic change in the workplace has been the result of progress in communication, transportation technologies, and international mobility. The global labour market is becoming more and more multicultural, and new identities have emerged from the worldwide waves of immigration (Sairambekovna Assanova & Ho Kim, 2014; Simons & Krols, 2010). More and more international business and cooperation are happening, and the lack of an i c c may cause disasters for businesses (Marcel, 2011; Sairambekovna Assanova & Ho Kim, 2014). Therefore, the company that recognises the need for ic c and tries seriously to develop this competence in its employees will attain a strong competitive rank (Marcel, 2011). Thus, graduates who are adequately trained in i c c are urgently needed in the global business market. In fact, this particular competence may be a key factor in business students' future employability. They should be knowledgeable (i.e., culture and business knowledge) and skilled (i.e., language and business skills) (Liu, 2011). The ideal employee or employer, as described by Marcel (2011)...

“…Instructors can help students become more prepared to take action by making use of technologies that facilitate language learning (Boix Mansilla & Jackson, 2011). Mobile devices supply numerous language learning applications and significantly impact college students in areas such as comprehension of vocabulary and grammar (Alkhezzi, 2016;Dange, 2018). One university in China found the popular social media WeChat to be highly effective at helping students learn English as a second language (Shi, Luo, & He, 2017).…”

The advancement of mobile communication technology has contributed to an increasingly interconnected world; however, these devices are not being used as effectively as they could be to improve global challenges. One challenging issue is the lack of preparation college graduates receive to positively contribute to the needs of an interdependent global society. Organizations such as UNESCO, NAFSA, and the OECD have recently declared the critical need for the rising generation to strengthen their global competence, the capacity to examine societal issues and work alongside those of various backgrounds to make a change. School instructors are crucial to preparing students to thrive in multicultural societies and address present day issues. With a staggeringly high rate of cellular device ownership among college students, mobile devices could be optimally positioned as a multi-functional tool ready to assist students in gaining these skills. This paper proposes that, while mobile devices may have contributed to a growing need for globally competent individuals, they can also be used to expand these capacities within university students. The PISA global competency framework developed by the OECD is used to propose how instructors can use mobile technology and research grounded practices to strengthen global competence in students.
