Students on many international programs tend not to have access to the
same level of informational and technological resources that are available
on the University of Washington campus. This presentation discusses how
one university program used online tools to increase opportunities for
research and communication for its students studying abroad. It addresses
the benefits and challenges of integrating technology into the unique
environment of an overseas program.
This presentation demonstrates the digital tools used during
the program, shows sample assignments and student work, provides tips for
adapting a curriculum to incorporate technology, and shares the results of
a research study that examined the benefits and challenges of using
technology in this environment. |
