Classle is challenging the paradigm that quality education remains in the hands of few by providing a global platform for teachers to develop and share courses. They need innovative, passionate teachers with a global mindset to develop academic and skill-based courses at various levels. Teachers would own their course content and share revenue from paid courses, while Classle provides the technology platform and global reach to learners. Developing a course would be intellectually rewarding for teachers and financially beneficial through a revenue sharing model.

De plus en plus d’étudiants prennent part à des projets de mobilité internationale. Les universités les accompagnent dans leurs démarchent d’échange, mais passent beaucoup plus de temps à préparer l’étudiant au départ qu’au retour, alors que les étudiants vivent un plus grand choc culturel lorsqu’ils reviennent. Plus encore, les ateliers et formations qui sont mis en place pour l’accompagnement au retour mettent l’emphase sur la fin de l’échange et le retour à la normale. On peut se demander quel est l’objectif de partir si on vise le retour à la normale au retour.

L'externalisation des systèmes de soutien pour les étudiants internationaux e...Patrick Arsenault, RCIC 🍁
These slides summarize the initial steps of my doctoral research at Université Laval in Québec City (Canada). In my research, I hope to look at how international students navigate a complex ecosystem of external support services in Corner Brook (Newfoundland and Labrador).
In this presentation, I will present the easy 5-step model I personally use with my clients to start the conversation about career planning. Sometimes, I meet people that have already started the process (or even completed it several times already). Other times, I meet people who have never really spent much time thinking about their career plan.
This presentation by Patrick Arsenault is based on the Grenfell Campus International Student Barometer results from 2015 and 2017. They are focused on teaching and learning with international students.
This presentation aims at preparing new international students about to move to Canada. It touches on main things to know and provides information to new students before they arrive.
Welcome to Grenfell Campus, Memorial University of Newfoundland (Winter 2019)Patrick Arsenault, RCIC 🍁
This presentation was created by Patrick Arsenault to provide key information to new international students coming to Grenfell Campus, Memorial University of Newfoundland in January 2019.
We hope to use these results to improve what we do and to ultimately provide a better experience for our international students. We recognize that increased diversity on campus is important and we value the contribution of our international students. They bring different perspectives and ideas, which improves the learning experience of everyone.

Patrick Arsenault presented on aromanticsm and amatonormativity at the BTtoP National Conference | The Whole Student: Intersectionality and Well-Being in Chicago in 2017. She shared his experiences dealing with amatonormativity in the academy and received positive feedback from attendees from all over the United States and beyond.
This presentation, from Patrick Arsenault, is about having the right mindset when it comes to assisting others. It takes into consideration respect and differences by recognizing that one size does not fit all. It empowers participants to draw on their unique expertise to help others, but to also make sure to develop the soft skills needed to serve others. One of the final recommendations is to encourage students to engage in service based education and community involvement.
