This presentation explores the ways that UK universities are increasingly placing internationalisation at the heart of their curriculum and the importance of having an internationally diverse student body to achieving this goal.
Virtual mobility: an alternative for or a complement to physical mobility?Ilse Op de Beeck
This document discusses virtual mobility as an alternative or complement to physical student mobility. It defines virtual mobility as technology-supported international collaborative learning experiences. Virtual mobility can support physical exchanges through online orientation, language learning, and alumni networks. It can also internationalize courses through virtual internships, joint projects, and blended learning. Successful implementation requires consideration of technology, pedagogy, and organization. Virtual mobility is not a replacement for physical mobility but offers new ways to experience international learning.

The Global OER Graduate Network (GO-GN): Engaging Doctoral Research with Open...Robert Farrow
This workshop was led by the Global OER Graduate Network (GO-GN) team (http://go-gn.net/). GO-GN is a network of PhD candidates around the world whose research projects include a focus on open education. These doctoral researchers are at the core of the network while around them, experts, supervisors, mentors and interested parties connect to form a community of practice. Considering the growth of open research and the commitment of research funders to follow this approach, there is a need to understand what open research practices imply. This involves understanding the benefits and challenges of making research more visible to increase impact and opportunities for collaboration with other researchers when doing a PhD and when pursuing a career in academia.
The workshop will focus on introducing the network possibilities for PhD students, including worldwide support to those researching in the different areas of open education. We will expose the values of the network promoting equity and inclusion in the field of open education research and introduce the different types of events we host such as an annual face-to-face workshop and online events. As well, we will discuss the support for alumni and members with a funded fellowship scheme and the acknowledgement of our members’ achievements through our annual awards. At the second part of the workshop, we will have a practical exercise with the audience to promote the co-authoring of research publications with our members. Two examples of those which will be disclosed are the research methods handbook, awarded with the 2020 Open Education Award for Excellence Winner, and the Research Review Summer 2020.

The project seeks to advance quality and inclusion in digital education across Europe.
The challenges of leading an international branch campus: the ‘lived experien...University of Limerick
In recent years, an increasing number of major universities have set up international branch campuses (IBCs). There are now over 200 IBCs, with more under development. Little is known about the unique challenges that face IBC managers, who are normally seconded from the home university to set up and operate the satellite campus in a new and alien environment. At the same time, there are significant financial and reputational risks for the home university should an IBC fail. This presentation reports the results of a qualitative study into the ‘lived experiences’ of IBC managers working in the three largest host markets for IBCs – China, Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates. It finds that the fundamental challenge for managers is balancing the competing demands of a range of internal and external stakeholders and concludes that universities need to do more to prepare and support IBC managers.

Editor's Notes
Now that we have been able to gain an initial overview of FernUni and got to know each other a little, we can move on to the next item on the agenda. This will focus on internationalization. I would like to start with a presentation on the internationalization of the FernUniversität, after which Uninettuno will present its reflections on a new mobility project. We will then round off the slot with an interactive world café, where everyone can contribute their ideas and input on this topic.
Forschung durch internationale Erkenntnisse
Neues Wissen generieren
Studierende qualifizieren für den (globalen) Arbeitsmarkt
International die klügsten Köpfe rekrutieren
Anschluss an internationale Entwicklung halten
Synergieeffekte aus Kooperationen nutzen
Globalisierungsprozess mitgestalten
Internationale Reputation stärken
Zukunftsfähig werden und bleiben
…
First of all, why do we pursue internationalization activities, why is it important for our institution? As a modern European university, the FernUnisees internationalization as a quality feature of all its areas of activity - studies, teaching, research and administration. Openness to the world, a mutual understanding of cultures and respectful interaction are a basic prerequisite for this.
In general, science is global and if you want to be a successful and reputable university you cannot just keep you focus on a local or national level.
So, how international are we? Here I would like to show you a few facts and figures regarding our internationalization. We have about 71.000 students of which about 7% live abroad. The majority of them lives in Austria, Switzerland, but we have students living in more than 100 countries in the world.
Regarding the nationality
About the internationalization of our curriculum and study offers: we do not offer degrees in english language
In the following I would like to outline our key activities in each of these fields
Here you can see an overview of our strategic partners. Mostly based in Europe, mostly other distance teaching univerities. You will recognize them, as many of our group today are colleagues from one of these institutions.
Darüber hinaus pflegt die FernUniversität zu einigen europäischen Fernuniversitäten zentrale Partnerschaften:
Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED)
Universidade Aberta (UAb)
Hellenic Open University
Telematic University UNINETTUNO
When it comes to cooperations one of our most important partners is the EADTU.
EADTU European Association of Distance Teaching Universities
I guess I do not need to introduce it in detail again. there are other people here today that
Current projects: MCE, ADMIT
So what do we do to support our university in this field?
Studying at the FernUniversität can be international in many ways. Internationalization at Home means that we offer students who are less mobile due to their life situation several options for international experiences during their studies as an alternative to a physical stay abroad. These include, for example, summer schools and internationally oriented, collaborative modules or virtual mobility.
Research is often international, professors collaborate with colleagues around the world, visit conferences in other countries

In order to implement internationalization activities at our university it is a must to increase international and intercultural competences among staff in the administration and service units, because the International Office cannot do it all alone. It is necessary to continuously increase the understanding for the need of internationalization. It should not be seen as a time-consuming „nice to have“ but as a necessity for a university of the future.
Also we want to improve the welcoming culture.
