dc.description.abstract | This research examines the experiences of Afghan female undergraduate students in transitioning from Afghanistan to Bangladesh, specifically focusing on Exploring Educational Transitions and Cultural Adaptations.
Data collection utilized a qualitative research approach with individual interviews both virtual and in-person conducted with a total of 15 participants. The outcomes of this investigation uncover that the educational background of these participants in Afghanistan was characterized by traditional teaching methods and a teacher-centered approach. Upon enrolling in Bangladeshi universities, Afghan students encountered a new teaching-learning environment and faced some challenges, including teaching methodologies, educational practices such as critical thinking, collaboration work, research, and language barriers. Additionally, they faced non-academic obstacles related to social, cultural, food, weather, and environmental adjustments, further complicating their academic pursuits in Bangladesh.
Based on these findings, a set of recommendations is proposed for organizers of study-abroad programs in Bangladesh. These recommendations aim to provide support services tailored to the needs of Afghan female students, thereby enhancing their chances of academic success during their studies. | en_US |
