Through Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) participants have gained dynamic applicable skills, knowledge and new collaborations on aquaculture practices. Dalhousie University, Faculty of Agriculture will provide three examples where COIL opportunities have amplified learning experiences at both partnering institutions: Rhodes University, South Africa- Ecology in South Africa Course; PWANI and RIAT Universities, Kenya- Certificate in International Aquatic Rearing Practices; Topical Aquaculture in Philippines (MMSU) and Aquaculture in Atlantic Canada course. T he focus lies on understanding the impact of COIL on enhancing students’ knowledge, skills, and global perspectives in the field of aquaculture. By leveraging digital platforms and virtual collaboration tools, COIL initiatives facilitate interactions between students from different regions, fostering diverse perspectives and cross-cultural understanding. Innovative pedagogical approaches have allowed direct sharing of knowledge which in turn transpired to immediate applications within the classrooms and industry practices.
