Internationalization by Innovative Technologies
Start date: Oct 15, 2015, End date: Oct 14, 2018 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Internationalization in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) utilizes policies and practices targeted to achieve academic benefits in teaching, learning, research, and industrial-societal cooperation. TEMPUS IRIS project successfully accomplished the goals of introducing and establishing the foundations for internationalization in Israeli state-funded colleges, thus improving their academic quality and competitiveness. IN2IT project builds on those solid foundations to bring internationalization to realization by modern operational initiatives. IN2IT aims to promote implementation of internationalization by developing innovative technological platforms to facilitate: (1) development and delivery of international curriculum by virtual teaching and learning; (2) utilization of interactive international hubs for communities of practice (CoP) of researchers; and (3) employment of global academy-industry/community cooperation.The collaboration of Israeli Colleges and EU Universities in IN2IT allows the Israeli partners to offer their knowledge in innovative technology and for the EU partners to contribute their experience in international academic activities.IN2IT outputs are: a framework to assess internationalization capability maturity level; ICT-based international academic programs including curriculum and supporting teaching materials; an interactive platform for CoPs; guidelines and pilot activities of international academy-industry cooperation; on-site and on-line seminars and conferences to disseminate the project results; training programs and user guides for application of technologies in academic international activities. Outcomes: developing internationalization capacity in the colleges; advancing accessibility to education in partner institutions; improving the quality and innovation of teaching, learning, research, and training in the colleges; increasing ties between Israeli and EU HEIs; enhancing the positioning of colleges in the HE arena.
