Abstract

This article provides an in-depth analysis of the evolving landscape of business and marketing education, accentuated by technological advancements, globalization, and the emergence of digital competitors. I underscore the challenges confronting traditional educational institutions arising from tech giants like Google and innovative e-learning platforms such as Udemy. The exacerbation of these issues in the post-pandemic environment is marked by escalating mental health concerns, a deficiency in practical skills acquisition, shifting student preferences, and debates surrounding the value proposition of college tuitions and business qualifications. Despite efforts to integrate immersive technologies and experiential learning strategies, a noticeable absence of pragmatic skills and learner-centric pedagogies persists within higher education paradigms. I introduce MECCDAL—a holistic, execution-oriented seven-pillar framework tailored to navigate contemporary challenges within an AI-infused, mental wellness-aware post-pandemic context. MECCDAL is an acronym derived from Latin terminologies: M ens (mind), E xecutio (execution), C or (heart), C orpus (body), D igitus (digital), A nima (soul), and L ingua (language). Through a detailed case study conducted at the American Institute of Business Experience Design, I illustrate MECCDAL's efficacy in augmenting business and marketing educational delivery mechanisms while fostering both collective and individual well-being alongside enhanced innovation and implementation competencies among students.
革新商业和营销教育:美国商业体验设计学院的 MECCDAL 模型和案例研究
本文深入分析了因技术进步、全球化和数字化竞争者的出现而不断演变的商业和营销教育格局。我强调了谷歌等科技巨头和 Udemy 等创新电子学习平台给传统教育机构带来的挑战。这些问题在大流行后的环境中愈演愈烈,表现为心理健康问题的升级、实践技能学习的不足、学生偏好的转变,以及围绕大学学费和商业资格价值主张的争论。尽管我们努力整合沉浸式技术和体验式学习策略,但在高等教育范式中,仍然明显缺乏实用技能和以学习者为中心的教学法。我介绍了MECCDAL--一个以执行为导向的整体性七支柱框架,该框架专为应对人工智能注入、心理健康意识觉醒的后流行病背景下的当代挑战而量身定制。MECCDAL 是拉丁语术语的缩写:M ens(心智)、E xecutio(执行)、C or(心脏)、C orpus(身体)、D igitus(数字)、A nima(灵魂)和 L ingua(语言)。通过在美国商业体验设计学院(American Institute of Business Experience Design)进行的详细案例研究,我说明了 MECCDAL 在增强商业和市场营销教育机制方面的功效,同时在增强学生的创新和执行能力的同时,还促进了集体和个人的福祉。
