Handbook of Using Virtual Exchange Across Disciplines

This handbook addresses a critical gap in global higher education by showcasing how disciplinary learning is enriched through virtual exchange using a new paradigm called the Global Collboration Framework. As traditional geo-spatial study abroad programs and cross-border partnerships face mounting barriers, this volume offers 64 chapters from scholars across five continents, with 37% from the Global South featuring 40 subject areas organized in 14 thematic sections. This collection of research illustrates how faculty-led subject matter experts, engage learners with content-rich virtual collaborations that foster disciplinary global learning and deepen subject mastery for praxis. Designed for educators, scholars, and academic leaders, this research-driven collection equips institutions to expand access to global learning and cultivate the intercultural, inclusive mindsets required in an interconnected world.The chapters  "Teacher Development Through the Learning Science Principles and Teacher Actions Framework in a US–South Africa Virtual Exchange", "Sustainable Systems Leadership in Water Challenges: A Virtual Exchange between students from Morocco and USA", "Learning Justice Across Borders: Virtual Exchange and Disciplinary Learning in Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Law", and "Introduction" are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/bync-nd/4.0/).
