Abstract

Within an international context, the role Online Learning Environments (OLEs) play in offering students opportunities to engage with other students to co-create positive experiences is complex. This paper examines the engagement facilitated by an OLE between students at a UK university and its Chinese partner. Findings show that OLEs can facilitate international student-to-student engagement and provide opportunities to co-create positive student experiences when the value offerings are engaged with (i.e. the OLE is used as intended). It is through students’ active engagement, or non-and negative engagement (i.e. intentional or accidental misuse), with the OLE that ultimately affects their student experiences.
