Abstract: With the continued increase of internationalisation in higher education, more international students are arriving at North American higher education institutions, especially from China. Concurrently, among the various teaching approaches, experiential learning has become one of the vital pedagogical methods in business education in North American higher education. To enhance the effectiveness of the experiential learning pedagogy, identifying and designing appropriate learning spaces for international students is extremely important, especially for Asian students who have been studying in very different types of learning spaces in their home countries. This exploratory study utilised a qualitative paradigm design through the Kolb learning space model to investigate the preferred experiential learning (EL) spaces for Chinese students studying at North American universities. The study's outcome indicates that well-developed experiential learning spaces could enhance Chinese students' experiential learning outcomes when studying at universities in North America.
