Project Description
This project brings together students and faculty from Universitat de Vic-Universitat Central de Catalunya (Catalonia, Spain) and Fontys University of Applied Sciences (The Netherlands). More specifically students and faculty staff from the degree in Psychology in both institutions collaborate online and in person for the solving of a real case related to language use at the different institutions when welcoming international students. The goals of the project are:
a) to learn how to collaborate in an international setting,
b) to learn how to develop an international online project, and
c) to learn about psychology (language and cognition) to solve problems in an international setting. The project includes an in-person presentation of the case in both sites.
