Purpose
The Office of International Affairs, the Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning and the Office of Technology and Digital Innovation are sponsoring the third faculty grant competition to develop internationally focused learning and cultural exchanges at Ohio State, using a variety of platforms and mediums.
We embrace a broad definition of “Global Learning” that includes many processes of diverse people collaboratively learning, analyzing, and addressing complex problems that transcend borders. Proposals are sought for initiating new and inclusive global teaching to internationalize the learning experiences and impact students beyond the traditional classroom or study abroad. Research findings show that having such experiences “at home” are great motivators to studying, interning, or working around the world.
