ABSTRACT
An innovative Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) program is developed in a quantitative business core course. Students from Salem State University are paired with students from Lanzhou University of Finance and Economics to work on a course project over a five-week period. Without traveling abroad, students have meaningful and valuable engagement with peers in another country. COIL is a practical way to prepare students for diversity and multicultural while still helps fulfill academic program goals in their home universities. Additionally, COIL helps faculty leverage the utility of online learning technologies and structure the course in support of the social and emotional well-being of students during and post the COVID-19 pandemic. This COIL effort also has potential to show promising progress and fruitful results in business courses redesign beyond the pandemic.
