The EQUiiP programme (from the EQUiiP platform)
The summer school consists of the following four EQUiiP modules.
- Introduction to the International Classroom
- Internationalising Course Design
- Intercultural Group Dynamics
- The Role of Language
These four modules are supported by the module on Feedback & Reflective Processes, which is integrated into the other four modules and addressed in an optional portfolio assignment. Participants have the option to transfer their learning during the modules to a learning portfolio (in which they take notes) and after the end of the programme, they produce a presentation portfolio which is assessed for certification processes. This will provide the opportunity for participants to make their learning explicit and receive a digital proof of their Continuing Professional Development activities (digital badge certificate) which they will be able to add to their CV. A badge comes with information about the higher education institution that has issued it, the learning outcomes, and assessment that has been applied so that learners can demonstrate their competences.
Participants are given preparatory assignments and will receive a link to a survey they are able to share with their students to include a student perspective on inclusion and diversity that will be discussed during the summer school.
