International education and the results of Brasil-Germany cooperation at Unicentro

Abstract:

The silent revolution of international education requires a reform that affects all the levels of education. In Brazil, while we send students abroad, we also face enormous challenges regarding the public offer of education "at home". Therefore, the assessment of international mobility, beyond any routine, implies the ethical dimension of its social relevance, particularly regarding the development of cooperation actions and their impact upon undergraduate and graduate programs. The establishment of partnerships by means of research and mobility projects is an efficient strategy at the early stages of internationalization, but not every program allows for cooperation actions. This paper considers the results of a constructivist approach for the internationalization of UNICENTRO's Forestry Program with the support of the government agencies CAPES (Brazil) and DAAD (Germany).

Key words:
Mobility; Interactivity; Culture
