Abstract
The article discusses Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) as a solution to barriers faced by low-income students in traditional study-abroad programs. COIL allows students to engage in intercultural exchange and collaboration with peers from different countries through online projects. The article highlights a successful COIL project between healthcare studies students in the USA and Mexico, emphasizing the positive impact on student engagement and cross-cultural understanding. Lessons learned include the importance of student participation, alignment with collaborating faculty, and awareness of cultural differences. COIL is presented as a valuable and cost-effective alternative to traditional study abroad programs, offering students academic benefits without the need to travel. [Extracted from the article]
