Dr. Amy Parziale Presents VE Outcomes at EAIE Conference

Dr. Amy Parziale, Instructional Assistant Professor in the Warrington College of Business, traveled to Glasgow, Scotland, this month to present at the annual European Association for International Education (EAIE) conference. Her poster presentation highlighted the outcomes of a COIL/virtual exchange project that she has implemented multiple times with partners at Universidade do Vale do Itajaí (Univali) in Brazil. The project connects her graduate course on professional writing with students in an intercultural communication course at Univali, allowing them to explore professional communication from an intercultural lens. Her findings demonstrate that the project builds global awareness and adaptability while offering students a chance to practice their professional communication skills in a real-world setting.
