Virtual exchange facilitates communication between individuals from different geographical and cultural backgrounds through technology. At KIT, there are two main exchanges: one with University of Mons (UMONs) in Belgium and the other with University of Mindanao in the Philippines. The UMONs exchange pairs students of architecture from both institutions, working collaboratively on design projects, communicating in English, and using tools like Zoom, Miro, Flipgrid, and Padlet to enhance their digital skills. These projects are evaluated by professors from both universities. The Mindanao program focuses on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with students collaborating to address global challenges. Teachers play a supporting role, preparing platforms and tasks ahead of the exchange. Multiple educators are often involved, depending on the content, and different platforms like Articulate 360 and Moodle support these exchanges. Virtual exchange offers students a multicultural learning experience, helping them acquire crucial skills for their futures. It's an alternative to traditional travel-based exchanges, offering a more accessible option for many. The hope is to expand such programs in the future.
