Session
Being able to study at several institutions across several borders in a single semester lets students profit from Virtual Exchange to the fullest extent possible. The high level of internationality and intercultural communication this scenario provides however also poses greater challenges to all those involved. This workshop invites participants to work on translating shared experiences into lessons learned and joint recommendations.
