Integrated Collaborative E-Learning for the Global Management Education in the 21st Century
Son, Barbara W. K.
International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Association for Development of the Information Society (IADIS) International Conference on Cognition and Exploratory Learning in Digital Age (14th, Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal, Oct 18-20, 2017)
Rapidly growing information and communications technology and a more interconnected global world offer benefits and challenges to global business organizations. While exploring benefits from global workforce and global production, they must successfully adapt to their local market conditions and manage their multicultural resources. How can we teach these rising complex global management challenges effectively in the 21st century global management classrooms? We need to pursue a new learning paradigm to foster active learners with innovative and critical global management thinking. Global management curricula should be designed to constantly draw forth active learning feedback to facilitate innovative learner-centered interactive classrooms. We closely examined the interactive learning models at the previous AACE Conferences (Son & Goldstone, 2012; Son & Simonian, 2014; Son, 2016). At the current Conference, we will discuss how integrated collaborative e-learning should be designed to improve these models using the example of a global online MBA course at Anaheim University. Using innovation and entrepreneurship as the subject matter, we closely examine the three pillars for global management education: leadership education, responsible education, and experiential education.
