A Campus Conversation: Technology Enabled Collaboration

 

International Collaboration through an Online Course: Queens College in Vietnam
Students in remote parts of the world are eager to learn English from native speakers. How can we service those who need access and are not able to relocate? Queens College, partnering with a government organization in Vietnam, created and launched a 10-week online course using the Epsilen platform, connecting students in Vietnam with students and a teacher in New York City. Challenges in international collaboration, design and implementation discussed. Participants encouraged to share experiences.
