Abstract

This chapter examines learning as a lived and evolving process shaped by experience, reflection, and intercultural engagement within a transnational higher education context at Wenzhou Kean University. Drawing on student narratives and established learning theories, it explores how moments of uncertainty, cultural encounter, and everyday interaction become sites of meaning making. The chapter traces a movement from initial disorientation toward expanded self-awareness, empathy, and ethical understanding, showing how learning extends beyond classrooms into daily life. Situated within Sino foreign higher education, it highlights dialogue, reciprocity, and relational connection as central to learning across difference, portraying education as an ongoing process of becoming grounded in openness and reflective awareness.
