We live in a multicultural society where we can identify several cultural groups and feminine realities. But, do we recognize and understand the cultural differences? Do we engage and interact with others? Here is where we start talking about interculturalism which helps us have a better understanding and respect for other cultures. That is, we can learn from one another, enjoy the experiences, and grow together.
This COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning) experience is a teaching and learning methodology developed by Jon Rubin at the State University of New York (SUNY).
COIL combines the four essential dimensions of virtual mobility: (1) it is a collaborative exercise between teachers and students; (2) makes use of technology and online interaction; (3) it has international dimensions; and (4) it is integrated into the learning process.
