2022 COLLABORATIVE ONLINE INTERCULTURAL LEARNING - VIRTUAL EXCHANGE (COIL-VE)
THE COIL-VE PROJECT
Over a 4-week period, students from Langara College in Canada and Athens University of Economics and Business in Greece will work on a COIL-VE project where they will explore branding, and more specifically the topic of personal branding as it relates to career development.
Throughout the project, they will examine how these issues present themselves differently in a Canadian and Greek context. Students will also consider technology, the global work space, and the United Nations SDGs in their research and final projects.
Students will start the project by getting to know each other, developing these relationships, and focusing on team development before launching into the remainder of the project.
