Characteristics of a COIL course

COLLABORATIVE WORK BETWEEN PROFESSORS

Before the course, both professors work together planning the objectives and designing the actitivies that will be carried out by students within the course.

VIRTUAL FORMAT

Even though the UDD course can be virtual or on-campus, synchronous sessiones together with the foreign university are conducted online.

4 TO 12 WEEKS

The duration of the collaboration will be between 4 and 12 weeks. This is to ensure that students have enough time to develop cultural competences during the experience.

TWO SYNCHRONOUS SESSIONS

Students will mostly work in an asynchronous way, however, the collaboration should have an opening and closing session.
