University of Cebu congratulates 242 finishers of the FRIENDS (Furthering International Relations Capacities and Intercultural Engagement to Nurture Campus Diversity and to Support Internationalization at Home) IACD MOOC (Intercultural Awareness and Cultural Diversity Massive Open Online Course) that started last April 6, 2020 and ended on May 17, 2020.
The FRIENDS IACD MOOC is one way for the University to integrate internationalization and intercultural components into the curriculum to maximize students learning through international and intercultural theories and experiences.
The 242 finishers shared their international and intercultural knowledge, ability, and experiences as they submitted their 3-minute Digital Stories. The top 4 winners will flock to Bulgaria and participate an all-expense paid 8-week Boot camp.
The mettle of higher education institutions is being tested by the current COVID-19 pandemic, and this IACD MOOC proves timely opportunity for our students to still beef up their knowledge stores and intercultural skill sets.
