iCamp: A Cross-Cultural Research Approach For a Cross-Cultural Learning Design

Although the Internet offers worldwide data exchange possibilities, e-learning experiences so far have been to a large extent carried out locally, regionally and nationally. The technical infrastructure available today holds a variety of means to support international collaboration. However, cross-cultural learning experiences spanning over national borders are still rather few. In this paper we will present the design approach that a European research group is following in a joint project on cross-national e-learning in higher education.
