The Community
We are a group of higher education professionals looking to build an online learning community focused on the challenges of international learning and teaching.
The community was founded in 2021 as a part of Mitigating COVID Together ERASMUS KA2+ project.
The Aim
We want to be the virtual home of a learning community.
For us, this means creating a space for an informal community of academics, teachers, administrators, and students born out of curiosity, professional growth, and joy. There is common alignment towards professional growth and explicit understanding that it is best fostered via sharing and reflection. Central to any healthy community are trust, safety, respect, and relationships.
In our community, you can discuss topics around international education, inclusion, pedagogy, didactics, online learning and anything else the community finds relevant in informal and fun ways. You can learn from other members’ experiences and get to share their best practices. You can get feedback and ideas from your peers.
What you can find and How to get involved.
What you can find:
We produce podcasts and webinars as well as print content and organise in-person and online events.
We also share other events and resources of interest to our community.
