Abstract

Learning mobility enhances employability and expands career networks. Despite easy access to global knowledge and skills through online and short-term learning mobility programs, learning fragmentation and incoherence have become issues. This research proposes a new scheme called Inxignia, which aims to enable learners to achieve coherent learning continuity within or outside of School on the Internet Asia (SOI Asia), an inter-university network in Southeast Asia and Japan, and increase a sense of community. Inxignia integrates the three modes, namely (1) Engagement: Engaging with Communities of Practices within or connected to SOI Asia; (2) Imagination: reflecting on experiences and small-scale learning achievements in SOI Asia; and (3) Alignment: Coordinating with SOI Asia stakeholders to achieve the desired learning and career path. A micro-credentialing e-portfolio platform supports enhancing each mode such as a feature to support reflection and plan learning from a bird’s eye view and open badges to visualize past journeys and future potential. The implementation results indicated that Inxignia supported Imagination and Alignment modes for SOI Asia Learners and the importance of including young faculty to make the scheme autonomous and sustainable.
