Digital storytelling in the internationalization context: towards English learning

Abstract

Telecollaboration refers to online encounters between students from different geographical locations (O'DOWD, 2021), which can foster Internationalization at Home (IaH) (LUNA, 2018a). This study sought to investigate narratives about a digital storytelling activity in the IaH context. For the analysis, data from experience reports, semi-structured interviews, and reflective diaries were conducted. The results indicated that the activity allowed: 1. opportunities for transformation and overcoming challenges, and 2. socialization in the remote context.
