Connectivism for writing pedagogy: Strategic networked approaches to promote international collaborations and intercultural learning

Learning today is supported and made complex by ubiquitous technologies. To prepare students for global workforce and intercultural exchange, writing pedagogy must incorporate strategic networked learning approaches.

Through assessing student projects and reviewing student and instructor feedback, we demonstrate the uses and implications of connectivism for writing pedagogy.
