Study and training for two faculty cohorts to produce 12 globally-focused humanities courses with international partnerships.

Howard Community College's (HCC) proposed project will deepen and internationalize humanities learning throughout its student body by infusing collaborative online international learning (COIL) into humanities courses within the college’s general education core. In collaboration with colleagues at partner institutions in Denmark, Ghana, Mexico, and Thailand, HCC faculty members will develop project-based assignments through which HCC students and their peers on a partner campus collaboratively explore topics pertaining to the overarching theme of globalization. The project will support course development by two consecutive cohorts of six HCC faculty members, and will feature a semester-long faculty seminar that explores key topics in the global humanities as well as strategies for effective use of the COIL model in humanities teaching.
