Intercultural telecollaboration between master students: a focus on the LMS

Abstract

[EN] Studying abroad implies a good opportunity to learn not only the language of the country where the academic institution is located, but primarily to acquire knowledge and other searching and teaching methodologies. Therefore, in our universities, it can be easy to find courses with multicultural students. These students must adapt to the new culture and to the new academic context. The Learning Management System (LMS) or learning platforms are part of this scenario, as they are essential in the universities¿ life. The present work describes a task driven at a master¿s degree course with a multicultural attendance, which focused on telecollaborative interaction in order to better know the differences and similarities between universities and their learning tools.
