The Global Classroom Project unites graduate and undergraduate students and professors from around the world to explore issues in cross-cultural, digital communication. The Global Classroom Project (GCP), piloted in spring 2000, provides experiential learning forums, currently, for students and professors in St Petersburg Russia, Volgograd Russia, Karlskrona Sweden, and Atlanta, Georgia USA.

Students work collaboratively across cultural, temporal, technological, and digital boundaries to develop analytical projects that expand their understanding of each others' cultures, communication styles, linguistic similarities and differences, and rhetorical strategies.

The GCP demands a high level of international person-to-person communication and interaction that centers on the challenges of real-life contextual communication. Students explore issues in this area, analyze them, and report the results of your research, experience, and analysis.

 


Both graduate and undergraduate GCP students have produced articles published in current books on web-based communication, graduate theses, and other specially focused scholarly projects.
