The ISTE Global Collaboration PLN webinar that we presented tonight was a HUGE success. After Anne Mirtshin introduced us, David Stoloff and I began the webinar at 7:00 pm CST with a single member of the audience. The purpose of this webinar was to explore how Global Collaboration is and can be used in higher education. I provided the introduction and shared some of the experiences I have had in teaching students from around the world and having them collaborate with learners on the other side of the globe.
Dr. Stoloff shared the many global collaboration projects that he has been doing over the years and provided an introduction to the Connecticut-Taiwan connection that he is presently doing with his undergraduate teacher education students.
David has been working with a professor in Taiwan, Julie Chen. His intention was for them to to share their experiences as a team, but he has been unable to contact Julie for a couple of weeks and didn't plan on her joining him for the event. HOOORAY!!!! About half way through, Julie arrived in our ZoomRoom and they were able to share their experiences and discoveries. As the evening progressed, our audience increased and it was a great experience for all.
Enjoy the recording of the presentation above and you can review the slideshows below. The website used for Dr. Chen's presentation is the dCCU-ECSU global connections website. Please contact us if you have any questions.

This was a really interesting presentation and it is great to know that global collaboration is active in the tertiary sector. It was really exciting when Julie Chen joined us as she was able to relate how her students viewed the collaboration and the challenges they faced. It was a great session, so thanks for organising this, Leigh.
