Professors continue to work hard to provide students with opportunities and curriculum that delivers meaningful experiences and provides a framework for students to grow their skills and knowledge as global citizens. More and more technology can break down old barriers to connecting students and faculty with international curricula and experts. Because of Webster University’s unique global campuses, faculty have more access to partner with international faculty across the curriculum and work together to deliver these experiences to students across the network, from Webster Groves to Florida to Geneva and back again. Come and participate in a guided discussion with two faculty members who have capitalized on delivery methods that can remove old barriers to this kind of collaboration. You will hear not only ways in which they were successful at delivery, but also about new challenges that arise when taking advantage of these opportunities. We will also be joined by a member of the Global Program Development office to talk about ways that faculty can maximize their experience and success if applying for abroad teaching opportunities, as well as a member of the Online Learning Center who will speak to how technology is often vital to the success of these endeavors.

Feb. 12, 11 am-12 pm
