The COIL theme for 2022/23: COLLABORATIVE ENGAGEMENT ACROSS BORDERS

This course connects learning communities of Providence College and UQAM using the COIL model as a platform for student engagement and leadership, global education, and human development. The cohort of students from the École de langues (UQAM) and the Global Studies Program (Providence College) will reflect on knowledge creation, framing interculturality through storytelling, and essential questions relating to global issues. Students will engage in a collaborative process of blog-format reflections, a community voices project, and will facilitate intercultural dialogues on topics aligned with the United Nation Global Goals, language plurality, translanguaging and belonging.

This collaboration is situated in the context of The CLIC Project.

Course facilitators:
Nuria Alonso García (Providence College), Jaime Demperio (UQAM) & Martyna Kozlowska (UQAM)
