  • Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) Hub Launches in Japan

    Submitted by admin on Fri, 12/05/2014 - 13:55

    The COIL Center's Global Partner Network member, Kansai University is launching a new COIL Hub in Japan via a Symposium (http://www.kansai-u.ac.jp/Kokusai/coil/index.html) this weekend. More details can be read in the SUNY press release.

    We are grateful to the leadership of Kansai University, particularly their GPN Coordinator Keiko Ikeda for their efforts to create the Hub and to create a venue for discourse and dialogue around COIL in Japan. We hope this will be the first of many COIL Hubs to develop around the world in the coming years. That development is also at the heart of this year’s COIL Conference entitled - The Expanding Landscape of COIL Practitioners, Networks, and Hubs: What’s Next?
