“…Many formats use projects and PjBL where one of the goals is the interdisciplinary, intercultural and international (3 x "i") mix of student teams. Cross-border projects are conducted using realistic cases and scenarios, also in cooperation with industry partners, which is also researched and evaluated [7]. In the past years, the virtual, online collaboration and education gained significant relevance, so the cooperating Master's programmes are called a "virtual cross-border Master School".…”

“…These projects are very relevant for the international Master's programmes in project management, IT and engineering which we are conducting within the "European Partnership for Project and Innovation Management (EuroPIM)" [6]. While doing such projects [7] we found that there is a lack of methodology for selecting project cases and forming the student teams with respect to the intended learning outcomes, especially regarding the soft skills which are trained by doing the projects. In this contribution we present the underlying concepts for the forming of soft skills in projects based on a literature review.…”

Project-based learning in higher education becomes more relevant and job-field-related if it is done in real, or at least realistic, project settings, e.g. including specific team situations or case studies from companies. Such projects are specifically valuable if they are conducted by internationally mixed student teams, best case in interdisciplinary teams. Online participation can be both more realistic and helpful in case physical mobility is not possible. Therefore, we are conducting virtual projects with cross-border student teams. Selecting the right projects and matching the right students with the relevant company cases is very important for an effective and efficient competence delivery. The project selection based on the desired competence gain, the development of a meaningful sequence of projects in order to implement an individual competence development path, the estimation of the contribution of the projects to the desired competence profile of the student, and the implementation of the projects need to be supported by digital tools and a virtual environment. This allows access to projects and company cases from different countries and an international, cross-border learning experience -best case in realistic interdisciplinary teams. This paper describes the concepts and tools for this approach and their experimental analysis.

“…o An introduction to the concept of agile cross-border projects [1] will be provided, including results of the ongoing research from students' and trainers'/lecturers' perspectives. During the session, participants get familiar with the course concept including the intended learning outcomes and the learning activity plan.…”
