Project Summary:
The Erasmus Mundus Association is excited to be a full partner in the GO-DIJIP project "Integrating Digital Collaborative Environments into Joint Programmes". EMA will contribute with the our large network of students and alumni and support Communication and Dissemination Activities.
What is the GO-DIJIP Project?
EMA is part of the GO-DIJIP, Key Action 2 project on “Integrating Digital Collaborative Environments into Joint Programmes”. This two year project is coordinated by the University of Padua – Padova, Italy. University of Bergen, AgroParisTech and UNICollaboration, as well as EMA are the full project partners.
Representative from the European Association for International Education (EAIE), Coimbra Group, ARQUS European University Alliance and tje Association for the Promotion and the Development of Joint International Programmes in higher education (ProDeJIP) are amongst the Associate Project Partners.
This Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership project focuses on the introduction of digital elements in Joint Programmes and we count on our EMA members, students and alumni to contribute!
GO-DIJIP aims to develop a digitalized, innovative, collaborative and quality-oriented Higher Education, providing instruments to sustainably mainstream new forms of virtual teaching and learning.
Within the project, the GO-DIJIP AMPLIFIER Platform will be developed and is intended as an open access, collaborative platform designed to expose and amplify sustainable practices of digital teaching, learning and assessment as well as intercultural and networking activities within Joint Programmes.
We will share more details and insights in the coming weeks and months, and also share the project website with you!
More information about the project can also be found on the coordinators project page or watch the following video.
The GO-DIJIP AMPLIFIER Platform is live!
What is the AMPLIFIER Platform?
An open platform, a community and a meeting place for staff and students involved or interested in integrated curricula offered jointly by universities in two or more countries. Its specific ambition is to foreground and share examples of how digital interaction is introduced in a variety of programmes and courses.
This platform remains available to the public, even after the project formally finishes.
How can you use it?
-
TO DISSEMINATE the best practices implemented within your Joint Programme - write a post!
-
TO BE AWARE OF and TAKE INSPIRATION FROM what's up in other International Joint Programmes reading the posts collected in the blog section!
-
TO COMMUNICATE with the wider community of people involved in International Joint Programmes adding comments to the posts.
How can you contribute?
Examples and case studies are welcome!
What makes a world of difference in your programme may have the potential to do so in other programmes. This is why we invite academics, administrators, students and alumni to share their best practice examples in short and informal blog posts.
