Through a global, international provider network of contentmodules and the use of modern technology, for example MOOCs, it could become possible tocreate a highly customizable system that leads to professional registration and recognition as, forlack of a better term, Global Engineering Educator and at the same time allows to personalize ortailor the program content

The way this framework has been used todesign learning activities as well as its usefulness for staff training and development areoutlined. The author proposes potential applications of this framework to other areas ofengineering curricula as a way to embrace complexity in learning and teaching and avoidoversimplifying complicated problems.IntroductionGlobalisation, diversification, community engagement, socially responsible, these are all termthat appear often when talking about modern engineering practice.

synchronized, because we would like to have interactions between UGA and NTU students for at least 4 weeks. However in practice, this plan imposed lots of strains on the NTU students, thus by week 3 for the NTU students (early March 2012), we knew that we had to treat this course as two independent implementations of the same instructional materials. 2. The second challenge was to find appropriate instructional technologies to perform classroom capture (on the UGA side) and to deliver effectively those class recordings to NTU students asynchronously and on demand. For several years, UGA had been using Camtasia Studio to capture and process classroom recordings
