GSL Classroom is an initiative of the Vice-Rectory for International Affairs that aims to link an Educational Unit of Tecnológico de Monterrey with a course from an international partner university, through an international element, using technological tools to connect students, foster collaboration and facilitate learning in multicultural environments.
This international component is included in the course of each of the participating universities, partially or totally, and its length can be extended throughout the course or applied to a specific module or topic with a minimum duration of four weeks.
Professors can decide on elements such as the type of partner they consider suitable for the collaboration, the total length of the experience, the type of interaction (synchronous or asynchronous), the kind of activities, and the evaluation rubric, among other academic elements.
The participating professors work together to design three main activities focused on interaction and cultural exchange between students in digital environments, collaborative work in multicultural teams to achieve a common goal and reflection on differences and similarities with their peers during collaboration.

It is a fundamental requirement to fulfill every one of the commitments to participate in GSL Classroom. In case you don't, The professor will not be able to earn the certificate of internationalization. Issued by the Vice-Rectory for International Affairs. The Educational Unit would lose the GLGC attribute, so the students would not have the opportunity to participate in the international experience, and consequently, they would not receive their digital badge.
If the application is not selected, the professor is invited to apply in a new call in the next school term.
In case of cancellation of the postulated Educational Unit or for some reason beyond the professor it is not possible to give the experience, the Global Shared Learning: Classroom Coordination must be informed of the reasons for the non-opening of the Educational Unit through the check tecglobalclassroom@itesm.mx. If this happens, if the professor has an alternative Educational Unit, the possibility of implementing GSL Classroom in said Educational Unit will be analyzed, as long as it is viable for collaboration. If you already have an international partner, it is important to notify them of the situation.
For those professors new to the GSL Classroom model who have applied for more than one Educational Unit and are selected, only the application that represents the greatest impact on the number of benefited students and whose theme facilitates the search for an international partner will be considered. Those professors who have previously implemented GSL Classroom and want to apply for two or more Educational Units are recommended to contact their Experience Coordinator to analyze the situation and make the most convenient decision.
It is possible to collaborate by integrating two or more groups that are taught during the same period (block/subject), either by the same professor or together with another Tec colleague. The groups can be from the same Educational Unit, similar or complementary.
Yes. It is possible to collaborate with several institutions and/or professors. It is suggested that there be only two institutions (Tec de Monterrey + international partner university) for easier coordination. The more institutions participate, the degree of complexity increases; however, it is possible to collaborate taking care of the balance in the number of students from the different institutions for the formation of multicultural teams.
Yes. All the professors involved in the Educational Units must be aware of and agree with the application. Only one application would be submitted. In the registration of the application, information will be requested from all of them.

These commitments are expressed in the section "Global Shared Learning Guidelines: Classroom" of this call, as well as in the Collaboration commitment letter that requires the signature of each professor as part of their application.
It is a fundamental requirement to fulfill every one of the commitments to participate in GSL Classroom. In case you don't, The professor will not be able to earn the certificate of internationalization. Issued by the Vice-Rectory for International Affairs. The Educational Unit would lose the GLGC attribute, so the students would not have the opportunity to participate in the international experience, and consequently, they would not receive their digital badge.
If the application is not selected, the professor is invited to apply in a new call in the next school term.
In case of cancellation of the postulated Educational Unit or for some reason beyond the professor it is not possible to give the experience, the Global Shared Learning: Classroom Coordination must be informed of the reasons for the non-opening of the Educational Unit through the check tecglobalclassroom@itesm.mx. If this happens, if the professor has an alternative Educational Unit, the possibility of implementing GSL Classroom in said Educational Unit will be analyzed, as long as it is viable for collaboration. If you already have an international partner, it is important to notify them of the situation.
For those professors new to the GSL Classroom model who have applied for more than one Educational Unit and are selected, only the application that represents the greatest impact on the number of benefited students and whose theme facilitates the search for an international partner will be considered. Those professors who have previously implemented GSL Classroom and want to apply for two or more Educational Units are recommended to contact their Experience Coordinator to analyze the situation and make the most convenient decision.
It is possible to collaborate by integrating two or more groups that are taught during the same period (block/subject), either by the same professor or together with another Tec colleague. The groups can be from the same Educational Unit, similar or complementary.
Yes. It is possible to collaborate with several institutions and/or professors. It is suggested that there be only two institutions (Tec de Monterrey + international partner university) for easier coordination. The more institutions participate, the degree of complexity increases; however, it is possible to collaborate taking care of the balance in the number of students from the different institutions for the formation of multicultural teams.
Yes. All the professors involved in the Educational Units must be aware of and agree with the application. Only one application would be submitted. In the registration of the application, information will be requested from all of them. The requirements mentioned in this call apply to all professors involved (training course "Guide for the design and implementation of GSL Classroom", Collaboration Commitment Letter, among others). Please review the requirements of this call.
A: Professors who have 4 or more certificates of internationalization will not be able to apply in this call. We invite you to stay tuned as you will receive information soon.
