Manyinstructors from the No-COIL and COIL+ programs felt fully supported in their in-house andinternational partnerships. However, both groups also emphasized the need for more consistentcommunication. This relates to [11]’s literature communication is key from all parties involved tohave a successful program. A few instructors from each group offered recommendations toimprove the program and address these barriers. These findings may be attributed to the varyingexperience levels among instructors. Challenges may arise from managing global collaborationswith students and international partners.Teaching Global Learning Exchange (GLE)/Virtual Global

specifies eight different mathematical competencies, and defines amathematical competency as “a well-informed readiness to act appropriately in situationsinvolving a certain type of mathematical challenge” [11, p. 49, italics in original]. Thesecompetencies cover two broader capabilities: 1) asking and answering mathematical questionsand 2) working and communicating with mathematical language and tools. While competenciescan overlap in that one competency may be needed to achieve other(s), each competency isindividually distinct from the others. Table 1 provides the working definitions of eachcompetency, redefined based on the authors’ interpretation. Table 1: KOM Competencies and Definitions Competency Definition

They were alsoimpressed with how well the water rockets they built were able to fly. For the orbits category,some main recurring themes were that it was amazing how fast low Earth satellite orbits aretraveling (7.8 km/s), and how that there is still gravity in space
