Large-scale multi-country experiential learning projects in IB/IM education: challenges and best practices for enhancing teaching and research

Abstract

Using the X-Culture project as an example, the panel session will review challenges and best practices of using large-scale multi-country collaborative exercises and simulations to enhance learning in IB/IM courses and provide a platform for high-quality research. A total of over a thousand students from over two dozen countries participate in the project every semester. The project is administered by the instructors on a voluntary basis and participation in the project is complete free for the students and their institutions.
