Abstract

OLIVOS ROSSINI, Mariella; RINCON, Sandra  and  RUTKOWSKI, Anne-Francoise. The Link Class Project: Collaborative virtual teams between Peru and The Netherlands. Journal of Economics, Finance and Administrative Science [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.39, pp.137-140. ISSN 2077-1886.

The Link Class Project presented in this article provides an example of established collaborative group activities to negotiate and build a report together in virtual teams composed of students at Universidad ESAN, Lima (Peru) and Tilburg University, Tilburg (Netherlands). It further analyzes the effects of a campus based internationalization strategy supported by the use of technology. Based on previous experiences with virtual classrooms, the authors adhere to the ancient Chinese philosopher’s, Lao Tzu, quote: «If you tell me, I will listen; if you show me, I will see; but if you let me experience, I will learn».

Keywords : Internationalization; Virtual classroom; Virtual mobility; Intercultural competence; Information and communication technologies.
