global
Supplement study
abroad with web
by Michelle Zayed
staff writer
Instead of spending thousands of
dollars on a study abroad program,
many students at East Carolina
University are experiencing foreign
culture inside the classroom.
The Global Understanding
Program was created in 2003 to
help students who are not able to
travel abroad. The program allows
students to video chat with people
in different parts of the world
and continue the correspondence
through e-mail.
The program has increased in
popularity since its start and thou-
sands of students are now enrolled
in its courses.
Rosina Chia, assistant vice
chancellor for global academic
initiatives and co-creator of the
program, said that the program is
an inexpensive way to experience a
different culture.
“In these days, it is very difficult
to study abroad because of terror-
ism and the economy,” Chia said.
“However, the world is becoming
more global, and we want to give
our students a cheaper and safer
alternative.”
At ECU 1 to 2 percent of stu-
dents study abroad, said James
Gehlhar, associate vice chancellor
for international affairs at ECU.
More students choose to enroll
in the program so that they can
interact with other college stu-
dents from more than 22 different
campuses and 18 different coun-
tries, said Elmer Poe, assistant vice
chancellor for emerging academic
initiatives and co-creator of the
program.
The objective of the course is
to use simple technology, such as
e-mail and video chat, inside the
classroom to interact with stu-
dents in another country and, more
importantly, learn and understand
their culture, Poe said.
The program has had a positive
reaction from ECU students and
has grown in universities around
the world that connect with ECU,
Gehlhar said.
In order to be a global partner
with ECU, students must be able
to speak English and universities
must be able to provide simple
technology for the class to take
place.
These two prerequisites are
sometimes difficult to obtain
because many campuses don’t have
technology like broadband Internet
or adequate computers, Poe said.
The program helps them acquire
the equipment in hopes of creating
a partnership, Chia and Poe said.
“All of the students come out
winners and the campuses do
too, because its students are more
aware of what is going on in the
world from other points of view,”
Gehlhar said.
Bob Miles, associate dean
for UNC Study Abroad and
International Exchanges, said that
UNC does not have a program
similar to Global Understanding,
and most of the classrooms that
hold video conferences are at the
graduate level.
“The focus of this office is to
send students abroad,” Miles said.
“The college remains very commit-
ted to keep doing that.”
