Bridging the Learning Gap: Cross-Cultural Learning and Teaching through Distance
Mullings, Delores V.
World Journal of Education, v5 n2 p1-9 2015
This project engaged students, practitioners, and educators from University of Labor and Social Affairs, Cau Giay District, Hanoi and Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, in a cross-cultural distance learning and teaching collaboration. Two groups met simultaneously through Skype videoconferencing to discuss and learn about field supervision and about social policy that supports women who experience family violence. This collaboration strongly demonstrates the usefulness of technology in bridging the learning divide and achieving meaningful cross-cultural educational exchanges from a distance.
