Abstract
This project describes the process of design, development, and conclusion of the Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) project, ‘Nurturing Global Citizenship through English,’ conducted from September 18th to December 20th between Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) and Universidad Autónoma de Baja California (UABC). The project aimed to foster global citizenship among students through the medium of English, integrating intercultural exchange and collaborative learning. The framework for collaboration, course objectives, and activities are presented.
The enhancement of English language skills, promotion of cultural understanding, and encouragement of global citizenship were developed using global issues as topics. The course design involved a mix of synchronous and asynchronous activities, leveraging digital platforms to facilitate real-time interactions and discussions. Reflections on the process and challenges are presented at the end, along with suggestions for improving pedagogical design.
