| Description | The presentation introduces a COIL-based course in Primary Education realized by teachers and students from Faculty of Education at Masaryk University and Karel de Grote University of Applied Sciences & Arts. Both universities relate to a similar vision of internationalisation (INT@HOME) and see the course as a meaningful and purposeful way to fulfil the vision. One of the main objectives of the course is to create for the students opportunities for approaching and understanding a problem or situation relating to primary education from multiple cultural perspectives. The course consists of 6 online sessions and includes a physical, reciprocal visit of students in Antwerp and Brno, which we consider as an added, useful, and effective value of the students’ virtual mobility. In the presentation we will outline the purpose and the objectives of the course, its organization and content, as well as the participants’ individual outcomes and assessment of the course. We will further share with you the positive experience, as well as the limits and challenges defined by the teachers and students. The presentation concludes with the plans for future collaboration in virtual and blended mobility. |
