Abstract |
Experts in multimedia, cultural studies, and distance education will develop a certificate in Intercultural Educational Technology within Ph.D. programs of six partner universities. The components of the certificate are: comparative study of educational technology systems, policies, and applications; language and cultural learning activities; project work and/or internships that require application of theories and technological skills to real life challenges; and an intensive international course. Thirty students and twelve staff will study and teach abroad and collaborate with many more in the project's innovative web-based learning environments, supported by professional communities and commercial experts. The project will broaden the impact of the EC and US cooperation by 'training the trainers' of faculty involved in open and distance learning. |
