Joint Online Course

IARU education technology directors discuss the trends, opportunities and challenges that IARU members are facing in identifying, selecting and using information, communication and video technologies for effective pedagogy.

The main objectives of the network are to:

  • bring IARU educators, directors and managers from the IARU institutions who are involved or interested in education technologies to meet and interact, with the aim of creating a collaborative network that can lead to future IARU education technology projects for member institutions.
  • share ideas, initiatives, innovations, experiments, pedagogical challenges and possibilities in education technologies among IARU members.

The network fruitful exchange lead to the creation of the first IARU Joint Online Course. Five IARU partners agreed to develop a joint curriculum that would showcase the academic strength of the IARU alliance.

Activities

  • Joint Online Course

    The IARU joint program focuses on State Fragility and Peacemaking through a joint effort of faculties from four institutions members of IARU: University of California Berkeley, University of Cambridge, National University of Singapore, and University of Tokyo.

    Through a hybrid of joint teaching and individual teaching, the classes take place in each of the four campuses, and are included in the academic calendar as credit-giving courses, starting from September 2016. Through the use of jointly developed course materials as well as transnational assignments and classes, this course is expected to provide students the fruit of the cross-national teaching based on the IARU network.
