20 January, 2021 hora: 10:30 am - 22 January, 2021 hora: 1:00 pm
In the framework of The Sustainable and Inclusive Internationalization Virtual Conference, UNESCO IESALC will participate in the interactive poster presentation on Virtual Student Mobility in Higher Education during and after COVID-19. Recordings of the poster presentations will be available on the Conference Platform throughout the duration of the event as indicated below. The authors of the research will be available for questions and answers from the public during the presentations at the times and dates specified below.
Student mobility has traditionally been understood as the physical flow of students between countries and has been called the ‘gold standard’ of internationalization. However, with the onset of COVID-19, borders and campuses have been closed on a global scale and virtual student mobility has rapidly risen to prominence as an alternative way to promote internationalization and knowledge exchange. Join the session to learn more about virtual student mobility, how it is being used during the pandemic, and what steps are being taken to expand access and assure quality in virtual student mobility programs.
