An Experiential Digital Global Engagement (EDGE) Exercise

Keywords: Experiential, Digital, Global

Abstract: This interactive session explores the ways we use internet-based communication tools to cultivate global aptitude in our students. Sophisticated web conferencing and learning management systems enable students to access technologically facilitated global learning. Creatively collaborating with partnered institutions across the world through technology, I design a high-impact experiential learning environment for students, engaging them in internationalization while recognizing and respecting their local contexts. Students are involved in conducting joint assignments that engage them in real life global work environments and challenges. I invite faculty at all levels to join us in this conversation.
