 This
Spring, MPICT will pilot a scenario-based learning, capstone
project course, as a collaboration between City College of San
Francisco, Ohlone College, Foothill College, Santa Rosa Junior
College, Cabrillo College, Truckee Meadows Community College
and
Centre des Formations Industrielles (CFI) - Gambetta in
Paris, France, which is San Francisco's Digital Sister City.
Twenty-four U.S. students and their French counterparts will
work together in teams across distance, time zones and
cultures to solve real world-like challenges, using online
collaboration and communication tools, CCC Confer, NETLAB and
Packet Tracer.
Twelve U.S. students will travel to Paris for 12 days, where
they will present final projects, visit industry sites and
shadow their colleagues in their jobs. CFI is like an American
community college, except it is managed by the
Paris equivalent of the Chamber of Commerce, and students
rotate between the classroom and workplace internships.
