Introducing Multicultural Experiences through Virtual Partnerships
Journal of Education for Business, v97 n4 p261-269 2022
The interconnected modern world requires business professionals to adopt a global mindset and function effectively in multicultural environments. The authors introduced multicultural experiences to their students through virtual partnerships, in which online technologies are used to virtually connect classrooms across borders. The students internalized experiences gained through such partnerships and developed multicultural awareness and competence during the process of conducting a series of joint assignments. This paper describes our use of these assignments and discusses how the virtual partnership could be improved by using a new theoretical model of Multicultural Experiences.
