COIL: internationalization from home to online upper secondary

Abstract

Dr. Osvaldo Succi Junior is a leading expert in Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL). He serves as the Virtual Exchange Coordinator at Centro Paula Souza (FATEC - CESU) in Brazil. In 2014, his team received the Santander Bank-Guia do Estudante Award for Best Academic Partnership for a COIL-Virtual Exchange collaboration developed with the State University of New York at Ulster. He was the first international professor awarded the Lenna Visiting Professorship by Saint Bonaventure University. In this short video, he encourages us to reflect on integrating COIL into online upper secondary education as a vehicle for connecting students with other cultures.
