In February 2020, Senior Dean Derek Stockley, Stephanie Byer and Rebecca Fitzgerald presented at the Community Colleges for International Development (CCID) conference held annually in the United States. The presentation focused on implementing virtual mobility strategies for global engagement including COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning). In response to the rapid shift to virtual mobility models, the May 2020 edition of CCID’s Horizon’s Magazine featured a spotlight on the Virtual Pivot in International Education including an article on the Faculty of Social and Community Services’ recent COIL project. The Humber-USIL project was co-developed by FSCS faculty members Linda Hill and Christine McKenzie with USIL colleagues and implemented in the Fall 2019 semester. The article focuses on the importance of virtual mobility opportunities to promote global engagement for both students and faculty.
