Type: article

Abstract: Academic institutions of higher education, and especially Jesuit institutions, face the challenge of educating students who often face unique financial challenges.These challenges can have an impact on access to quality education and experience.Given our globalized environment, among these challenges is the opportunity for students to participate in a study-abroad experience while at the university.Today, through the use of technology it is possible for institutions of higher education to offer these collaborative learning experiences to those students who may not be able to travel.This paper will detail a pedagogical approach which emphasizes using collaborative online international engagement.
