- W3136361801 abstract "According to the most recent data from Statistics Canada, international student enrollment inCanadian universities is on the rise (Statistics Canada, 2016). International students made upeleven percent of the total student population at Canadian universities in 2014, increasing fromseven percent a decade prior. International students contribute significantly to the Canadianeconomy (OECD, 2013), which is one of the reasons why many post-secondary institutionsstrive to recruit students from abroad (Fama, 2011). One method of recruiting internationalstudents is though offering English language learning programs at the tertiary level in Canada(Chen, 2017). While enrolled in these programs, international students contribute to Canada in avariety of meaningful ways. Upon returning to their home country after their studies in Canada,these students can take on the reverse role as ambassadors of their host country (Jamaludin, Sam,& Sandal, 2018), serving as sources of information about studying in Canada in their peergroups. As much as Canadian schools endeavor to attract and retain international students thereis little that can be done to access these students’ informal evaluations of their experiences intheir host country once they have returned home and are telling their peers about their time spentabroad. Since word-of-mouth referrals factor into the decision to study abroad (Mazzarol &Soutar, 2002), it is important to know what students returning from language programs inCanada have to say about their experiences. At present, much research on international studentsin Canadian language programs has focused on the experiences of Chinese students whereaslittle is known about Korean university students participating in language programs in Canada.This study employs a qualitative research approach using a a basic interpretive design and tookplace in Kongju, South Korea. It involved a small, purposive sampling of five university-agedKorean students who had recently returned from studying English in short-term languageprograms in various regions in Canada. Data were collected through in-depth, semi-structuredinterviews, guided by this study’s research questions. This study found that English languagelearning programs which include social aspects are more likely to engender a positive word-of-mouthresponse from their participants." @default.
