The Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) Framework provides a structured and effective approach for designing collaborative projects that connect students and faculty from two geographically diverse higher education institutions. COIL projects foster students’ intercultural competence, through global learning experiences integrated in an online course. During this session, participants will understand COIL’s purpose and its core components and explore strategies for identifying and collaborating with a COIL partner. By the end of the session, participants will have the knowledge needed to begin planning a COIL experience, and the tools to help them fully implement it.
