Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) offers an opportunity to traverse boundaries and make the \u201cclassroom learning\u201d experience globally connected. Using various online communication technologies, students from different countries complete shared assignments and projects, with faculty members from each country co-teaching and managing coursework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UW faculty interested in embedding COIL into their courses are invited to join an annual cohort of COIL Fellows. Fellows participate in community of practice meetings to deepen learning and facilitate the sharing of ideas, resources and strategies, and submit written documentation of their partnership. Participants are awarded a stipend for course development and implementation. The program is conducted entirely online and facilitated by a tri-campus team of global office staff, instructional designers, and previous COIL Fellows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fellow expectations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Actively participate in seven online COIL Fellows community of practice workshops.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Schedule at least one 1:1 consultation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Complete several asynchronous assignments:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Deepen understanding of COIL pedagogy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Begin applying COIL to their own course<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Exchange ideas with other Fellows<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Start working with an international partner to plan the COIL module.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attend additional community meetings (one or two per quarter) during the second year for:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sharing progress<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Troubleshooting challenges<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;regular&#8221; COIL Fellows program with trainings in Winter and Spring will not be offered in 2026. Applications for a 2026 Summer Intensive COIL Fellows program will solicited through the UW Global Innovation Fund. Applications will be due in late January.

Perspectives and tips from previous COIL Fellows are integrated into asynchronous materials in Canvas and some community of practice meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, COIL Fellows receive a $1,200 stipend paid out as a salary supplement in two installments: the first $600 upon completion of the course development stage, which includes active participation in the community of practice, COIL partnership worksheet and course syllabus; the second $600 during the quarter that the COIL course is taught. Funds can be used for professional development and\/or travel expenses related to the COIL collaboration (for self or international partner).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-purple-300-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-a93ef5bff11ee774fb00426cacd29c2d\">Contact us<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Please contact us if you have any questions about the COIL Fellows program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>UW Bothell: <\/strong>Natalia Dyba (nataliak@uw.edu), Director of Global Initiatives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>UW Tacoma: <\/strong>Vanessa de Veritch Woodside (vdw@uw.edu), Executive Director, Office of Global Affairs; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tacoma.uw.edu\/oga\/coil\">UW Tacoma COIL site<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>UW Seattle: <\/strong>Office of Global Affairs; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washington.edu\/globalaffairs\/uw-coil-fellows\/\">UW Seattle COIL site<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Past Cohorts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supporting Faculty in Developing International Course Collaborations I really appreciate the well-planned workshops!
