Abstract

International Online Collaboration Competencies (IOCCs) are considered essential for global virtual teams, yet no consensus exists on what experts consider as IOCCs and which competencies are involved. To develop a framework to support higher education in designing learning tasks and evaluation instruments for the acquisition of IOCCs, a three-round consensus study was conducted among a purposive sample of academic and field experts in international online collaboration. The final IOCCs framework includes a definition of IOC and 34 IOCCs within six competency domains: (1) information and communication technology, (2) international and intercultural, (3) communication and language, (4) collaboration, (5) management and organization, and (6) domain-specific. The framework may be a benchmark for program development for Internationalization of the Curriculum (IoC), evaluation, and continuous professional development. Further research is needed to evaluate how this IOCCs framework can be integrated into higher education settings to teach and evaluate IOCCs.

迈向国际在线协作能力框架——一项共识研究

国际在线协作能力（IOCC）被认为对全球虚拟团队至关重要，但对于专家认为什么是IOCC以及涉及哪些能力，还没有达成共识。为了制定一个框架，支持高等教育设计用于获得IOCC的学习任务和评估工具，在国际在线合作的学术和领域专家中进行了一项三轮共识研究。最终的IOCC框架包括IOC和六个能力领域内的34个IOCC的定义：（1）信息和通信技术，（2）国际和跨文化，（3）沟通和语言，（4）协作，（5）管理和组织，以及（6）特定领域。该框架可能是课程国际化（IoC）、评估和持续专业发展的项目开发基准。需要进一步的研究来评估如何将IOCC框架整合到高等教育环境中，以教授和评估IOCC。
