Collaborative Online International Learning​

COIL is a pedagogical method that promotes intercultural exchange by virtual mobility. Using internet-based tools, students and staff connect across borders in a class or educational project which is part of the curriculum. By working together from geographically distant locations and different linguacultural backgrounds, students acquire intercultural competencies and experiences across shared learning environments. COIL involves a structured cooperation between faculty members and students of similar or related disciplines. COIL projects can take place completely online or be supplemented by physical exchanges (blended programme).
