Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL)

Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) is an educational approach that connects students from different countries through online collaboration. It enables them to work together on projects, share perspectives, and learn about diverse cultures while developing global skills. COIL enhances intercultural understanding and communication by integrating international experiences into regular coursework, often facilitated through virtual platforms. This method broadens students’ horizons, fosters cooperation across borders, and prepares them for a more interconnected world—all without the need for physical travel.
