Empowered Learning Through International Virtual Exchange: Removing Barriers and Building Bridges in Higher Education
Editat de Ethan Trinh, Yali Zhao, Anthony F. Lemieuxen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 aug 2026
International Virtue Exchange (IVE) offers a powerful alternative to traditional forms of international exchange by leveraging technology to connect individuals and institutions across the globe, providing more accessible and sustainable opportunities for cross-cultural engagement. Using authentic examples from higher education, this edited volume delves into the transformative and concrete impacts of virtual exchange in fostering global connections, removing barriers, and building bridges across cultures and nations. By highlighting successful models, identifying common challenges, and depicting real-world collaborations, these chapters aim to advance the field of IVE and inspire global institutions to adopt and support such initiatives in their own contexts.
Researchers, educators, designers and technologists, and policymakers will find a wealth of replicable experiences from Australia, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Japan, Tunisia, the United States, and elsewhere.

Recenzii
"This book checks all the right boxes! For practitioners, the shared successes and challenges of multi-disciplinary VE projects, along with the innovative technology used, provides strong evidence that the learning and teaching outcomes are more than worth the investment. For researchers, the VE studies significantly contribute to the body of knowledge while guiding future investigations. Additionally, a compelling case is made to administrators that VE’s power to impact internationalization of curricula requires support with an emphasis on sustainability. Most importantly, this seminal work fosters connectiveness and respect at a time when strengthening cross-cultural ties is sorely needed. The editors and authors are to be commended for creating an outstanding resource for global learning in higher education."

"SUNY COIL Center enthusiastically endorses Empowered Learning through International Virtual Exchange: Removing Barriers and Building Bridges in Higher Education. At a time when misinformation too often shapes perceptions across borders, this powerful volume affirms the need to double down on authentic human connection. COIL/VE creates spaces where students engage directly, challenge assumptions, and move beyond media-driven narratives. We are proud to see so many colleagues and friends in these pages doing the hard work of articulating their practices. This publication reflects the power of community, the spirit of Ubuntu: “I am because we are”, and offers a compelling roadmap for more truthful, empathetic, equitable and inclusive global engagement."
