Academic research is an activity which transcends geographical borders and is built upon international expertise, resources, mobility, and collaborations. The objective of this article is to examine how professors from research-intensive universities in five Canadian provinces perceive the influence of internationalization on the production research. A survey to which 1,045 professors responded, followed by descriptive analyzes, paired sample tests and an ANOVA, reveal that internationalization is perceived to have a positive influence on research. International research collaborations, recruitment of international faculty and graduate students, as well as international research funding are considered to have a stronger influence than the recruitment of international undergraduate students and institutional partnerships.

Instructional planning is a core professional competence of teachers. Studies illustrated the evolution of beliefs about instructional planning during their training. This paper offers another perspective by positioning teachers’ beliefs during their training in comparison with teacher educators and experienced peers. The results describe the lexicon used by the different groups and its modification during the training. This allows offering implications for teacher training and research on teaching.

AbstractThe events of 9/11 and afterwards appear to reinforce realism as the dominant theory of international relations. 9/11 demonstrated the continuing dangers of anarchic international society, realists believe, and showed that sovereign states must continue to guard their own interests, using military force as an essential means to maintain security. Post-realists agree that realism's cognitive simplicity fits the perceived crisis of 9/11. At the same time, post-realism suggests that political action is more complex and dynamic than realism believes. The attack from Al Qaeda did not come from another state, and the military responses in Afghanistan and Irak did not demonstrably weaken it. Post-realism emphasizes the importance of multiple perspectives, interpretations, and meanings – realist and non-realist – for developing a critical understanding of international relations. As one example, this paper includes an account of us imperialism, identifiable through discursive analysis as a distinctive cultural formation. Though the single, simple viewpoint of realism may seem compelling, post-realism suggests that seeing the world through multiple frames is likely to produce more prudent strategies in world politics.
