Internacionalização do Ensino Superior, Internacionalização Virtual, Tecnologias da Informação e da Comunicação, Collaborative Online International Learning, Internacionalização HíbridaResumo
The use of information and communication technologies (TICs) supported the transition from face-to-face to digital learning environments as a response to the pandemic moment, fostering the development of Virtual Internationalization (VI). This research aims to investigate what actions the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC) took to avoid the interruption of internationalization activities by the development of
Virtual Internationalization. It is a case study with a descriptive objective, using bibliographic and documental research. The results indicated three axes of institutional actions inducing Virtual Internationalization: i. campus internationalization based on online courses offered in foreign languages; ii. curriculum internationalization guidelines for developing Collaborative Online International Learning programs; iii. online foreign
language capacity-building programs to set the internationalization for all. The research highlights the need to establish policies and institutional plans for Virtual Internationalization with the same relevance as other management plans.
