| Sumario: | This article describes the main challenges that the university is facing in a global context, marked, in great measure, by competitiveness and the use of information technolog.It also describes the Internationalization Strategy adopted since 2010 by the Escuela de Ciencias de la Comunicación Colectiva of the University of Costa Rica, under an inclusive and constructivist framework. Participants in this project have been coordinating efforts with communication schools from different regions of the world by implementing activities such: teleconferences, videoconferences, collaborative development projects, teacher exchange, and the development of joint research and extension projects.In order to achieve this, different types of digital technology have been used, for example: Facebook, video streaming (live stream), Skype, e-mail, Google Docs, Dropbox, and Pbworks. These tools have shown to have very positive and effective results.Additionally, this initiative has improved the students “output profile”, and has also increased teachers’ abilities.In the near future, the goal is to develop a permanent and systematic process where students in this major will be able to accumulate sufficient understanding and experiences regarding internationalization, so they can obtain a formal recognition on behalf of the university. |
