From the Office of the Provost:

Are you interested in creating impactful global learning for your students? Do you want to connect with faculty across national borders? The Office of the Provost at Queens College is pleased to announce the **2021-2022 Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) Faculty Fellowships.** In keeping with the international goals of Queens College (QC) and working closely with the Center for Teaching and Learning, the workshops will provide faculty support in the development of COIL into their courses. The aim of the COIL Faculty Fellowships is to offer select faculty the opportunity to learn about Collaborative Online International Learning, develop strategies for incorporating it into their courses, advance research with international colleagues, and expand QC’s global presence. Adding a COIL component to your course offers your students an opportunity to interact globally through virtual exchange without additional costs associated with physical mobility. While the COIL component takes place solely online, your course may be face-to-face, hybrid or fully online. Courses may be existing courses or new courses. Interested Queens College faculty from all disciplines are invited to learn more about COIL here: https://coil.qc.cuny.edu/ **The application deadline to be part of the 2021-2022 cohort with a $500 stipend is October 4th by 5pm via form: https://shorturl.at/nrsGY ** For more information on the COIL Faculty Fellowship structure, eligibility, and application: http://ctl.qc.cuny.edu/coil-at-qc/ Please direct any questions to COIL Coordinator, Prof. Schiro Withanachchi: schiro.withanachchi@qc.cuny.edu
