Unpacking Internationalisation: a roadmap to teaching glocally

Description

In an increasingly uncertain global context, academics and lecturers need to address the challenges
of the “glocal” classroom and be able to teach a wide variety of students from diverse cultural and
linguistic backgrounds. This four-week online introductory programme (equivalent to a 30-hour
course) is jointly organised by UMONS (Université de Mons, Mons, Belgium) and UFCSPA
(Universidade Federal de Ciências da Saúde, Porto Alegre, Brazil) and will introduce you to different
aspects of internationalisation and teaching in English. Throughout the course, we will debunk the
myths usually associated with EMI (English Medium of Instruction) and internationalisation, and
reflect on the concerns or questions that you might face as part of your future teaching activities in
the multicultural and multilingual university. We will also look at practical tips on how to better
prepare for your (online) classes in English and make it a positive experience for both you and your
students.
