Carpes – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
Internationalization in higher education is essential, and although active learning methodologies are increasing and allow students to develop transversal skills, most still have a very local scope. In this context, the Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) methodology is an interesting approach to benefit the students' development.…

Hlavac, Jim – Interpreter and Translator Trainer, 2023
Aptitude is a hypernym used in training and practice-based contexts to refer to a person's natural or acquired ability to do something. It tends to be an attribute that is 'forward-looking', i.e. referring to a person's probability of achieving success in the future. This paper adopts a retrospective perspective in looking at the 'success…

Sponseller, Aaron C. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Conventional folk wisdom insists study abroad is an inherently valuable educational experience for young people.

Problematically, evidence is mounting…

One of the best signs of mastering a language is the ability to understand the cultural elements and the…

O'Rourke, Breffni; Stickler, Ursula – Language Learning in Higher Education, 2017
We propose a definition of synchronous communication based on joint attention, noting that in certain mediated communication settings joint attention is a matter of perception rather than determinable fact. The most salient properties of synchronous computer-mediated communication (SCMC) are real-time pressure to communicate and a greater degree…

Chwialkowska, Agnieszka – Journal of Studies in International Education, 2020
