I am interested in how overseas\nstudents' learner and customer identities are constructed and reconstructed in the\nprocess of negotiating entrepreneurialism and its interrelated and competing\ndiscourses, such as such as OSs as learners, OSs as customers, OSs as change\nagents and OSs as ambassadors.\nMy empirical research is carried out as qualitative research drawing on\nethnographic approaches, and conducted in four UK universities. I interviewed\nmore than 50 postgraduate overseas students and 22 university staff at different\nlevels across universities. My analytical scope is influenced both by interactionism\nand poststructural concepts of discourses and ideas, emphasising the micro/macro\nlinks, rather than posing a dichotomy between micro/macro analytical levels.\nMy central argument is that the ways in which university staff negotiate the notions\nof 'learner' and 'customer' influence overseas students' identity constructions. The\nhidden debates on overseas students' learner and customer identities were latently\nentwined with the construction of overseas students as victims, as problems and\nas beneficiaries of the marketisation of higher education. These hidden debates\nilluminate challenges which overseas students have to overcome, when they resist\nand negotiate their learner and customer identities. My research should\ncounterbalance the one-sided and distorted perspective of overseas students,\nparticularly made by the media, which portrays them as sources of income as well\nas sources of problems for the UK universities."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/date> "2010" . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/document/560751> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/Document> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/org/ext-f7a1daa52fb5147cdb3e13be8766ab00> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Organization> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/org/ext-f7a1daa52fb5147cdb3e13be8766ab00> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name> "Institute of Education, University of London"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/issuer> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/org/ext-f7a1daa52fb5147cdb3e13be8766ab00> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/status> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/status/unpublished> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/creator> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-cc8c41b25b5d4c9fa89ce22333cc084d> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://purl.org/ontology/bibo/authorList> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493#authors> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493#authors> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#_1> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-cc8c41b25b5d4c9fa89ce22333cc084d> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-cc8c41b25b5d4c9fa89ce22333cc084d> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-cc8c41b25b5d4c9fa89ce22333cc084d> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/givenName> "Yu-Ching"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-cc8c41b25b5d4c9fa89ce22333cc084d> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/familyName> "Kuo"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/person/ext-cc8c41b25b5d4c9fa89ce22333cc084d> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name> "Yu-Ching Kuo"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://eprints.org/ontology/EPrint> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://eprints.org/ontology/ThesisEPrint> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/isPartOf> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/repository> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10006493> <http://eprints.org/ontology/hasDocument> <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/document/560751> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/document/560751> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://eprints.org/ontology/Document> . <https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/document/560751> <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label> "Learner, customer or ambassador?
