Short-term student exchanges can offer valuable opportunities for intercultural learning and to engage in intercultural communication using English (the language focus in this Element). However, research and educational practices often assume that the most effective intercultural learning occurs through interactions with local individuals in 'target' culture learning and adherence to standard English language norms. These assumptions overlook important learning opportunities from interactions in culturally and linguistically diverse settings as features of many international exchange experiences. This Element proposes a perspective in student exchange research and practice that reflects this diversity and encompasses the intercultural learning model of intercultural awareness, intercultural citizenship education, and Global Englishes.

1. Introduction and conceptual orientation; 2. Intercultural learning on short-term student exchanges; 3. Intercultural and global englishes education; 4. Case study: connecting the themes in the Japanese HE context; 5. Recommendations and conclusion; 6. References.
