The CoCo Telecollaborative Project: Internationalisation at Home to Foster Global Citizenship Competences

Abstract

This chapter provides a description of the CoCo (Coventry Colmar) telecollaborative course. It illustrates the tasks designed and/or adopted for it, such as the Cultura Quizzes. It discusses how CoCo was fully integrated into the curriculum and assessment of both institutions involved and how students practised critical digital literacies for global citi- zenship though active learning with the creation of a group Intercultural Digital Learning Project (IDLP). It describes the materials and instru- ments used including more details about the politeness frameworks adopted and it illustrates how the analysis was performed. The chapter includes relevant figures and tables that help to illustrate the telecollabora- tive project structure, the politeness framework used to analyse the data and the breakdown of the relevant strategies.
