Video for International Education Conference October 5-7

INDIANAPOLIS – Interactive Video places an international education within reach of all students and staff without the need for taking a step off campus. It has unlimited potential for the preparation of students as global citizens, for deep learning, and for the internationalization of curricula and campuses. However, the use of videoconferencing for international education must be contextualized and understood fully, e.g., in terms of pedagogy, instructional design, intercultural communication, partnerships, as well as the embedded issues of access, international relations, sociolinguistics, and globalization.

The IVIE Conference will have experts in international education, interactive video, and curriculum design broadly training and preparing faculty and administrators to integrate interactive video as means of international education in their own institutions, schools, and departments.

IVIE is funded by the U.S. Department of State through a grant from the Collaborative Training Grants Program of NAFSA: Association of International Educators and support from IUPUI’s Office of International Affairs, Center for Teaching and Learning, and University Information Technology Services.

Extended registration is available for IUPUI participants. Call 274-2199 after September 30.
