Abstract

In a joint collaboration, four universities in the US, South Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda are establishing distance learning materials and frameworks of interaction in a course entitled, Local to Global: Collaborations for International Environmental Education. The collaboration innovates with mobile learning technologies to adapt and develop distance-learning courses across universities, international borders and mobile networks. The paper describes a networked model of pedagogy that is a re-thinking of the distance learning paradigm, and describes the development of the collaboration, the technical implementations, and participation outcomes of an iterative design process.
