Abstract
Higher Education Regionalization in the Northern Triangle of Central America: Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras."This article is a timely one that examines the types and depth of collaboration between HEIs within the Northern Triangle and examines how future collaborations might be fostered.The Winter Special Issue 2019 theme is Integrating International Students in Local (Student) Communities: A Theory-to-Practice Perspective.JCIHE is honored to have Christof VanMol (Tilburg University) as the guest editor.This Special Issue includes articles that collectively explore various forms of academic and social integration experiences of international students while abroad in their host institutions.In unpacking the factors that can explain the integration process of international students, the articles in this issue find that social support (articles by Cong and Glass; Nilsson), campus climate (article by Cong and Glass), socialization process in different cultures (article by Wang and Moskal) and institutionalized support services (articles by Asada; Ballo, Mathies and Wiemer; Cong and Glass; and Sin and Tavares) are central to student success.A sub-theme found in the special issue articles is how student voices can build student agency by exposing stereotypes that they encounter that may not be familiar with college administration.Finally, each article includes practical recommendations to practitioners based on best practices grounded by theoretical and empirical research.The articles in the 2019 JCIHE Winter Special issue include: Anduena Ballo (University of Jyvä skylä ), Charles Mathies (University of Jyvä skylä ), and Leasa Weimer (University of Jyvä skylä ) show that international students are not a homogenous group and as such need tailored student services.They use Student Development Theories (SDT) to show how students develop holistically and environmental conditions can facilitate their development.Cong Cong (Old Dominion University) and Chris Glass (Old Dominion University) use quantitative analysis to show that international student services (academic advising, writing support services, immigration advising, etc.) are very important in student social adjustment.In using this information in practice, they find a need to facilitate positive faculty-student relationships and international student -local student relationships.Per Nilsson (meå University) focuses on one type of interaction, that of the buddy program that uses both institutional reports to organize the program and social support in terms of program activities.Yet, research shows that while social integration with local students appears, it is limited to only those in the buddy program.Sarah Asada (Kyoritsu University) shows the importance of institutional services in terms of curricular design, on-site administrative staff, and creating an atmosphere that promotes students' independence as leading to integration of international students with local students.A historical analysis of short-term Japanese program from 1960s to 2010s shows that the diversity of the students leads to different experiences as international students.Sihui Wang (University of Glasgow) and Marta Moskal (Durham University) present a micro-focus study that examines interactions within the classroom and tensions that can arise from the level of socialization of the international students.Particular attention is place on the time in-country and on the situation that defines how

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
