About Our Blog

​

This blog was conceived in spring of 2023 at a Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) facilitation workshop. COIL is a unique opportunity for students (and educators!) to learn more about another culture while improving their online collaboration skills via a shared project with students from another country. In a world with rapidly advancing  technology, and declining rates of mental wellness, people skills are more valuable than ever before.

​

We thought students should have a chance to pay forward the wisdom they have gained in their lives thus far; maybe through opportunities like these we can make the world a better place.

​

We hope you have enjoyed browsing this blog as much as we enjoyed developing it together.
