In this interactive workshop, participants will explore opportunities and challenges in collaborative international teaching, including formats such as Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) and Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs). Through reflection and discussion, participants will consider the competences needed by both teachers and students, and identify the conditions, support, and resources that enable successful collaboration across institutions.
