This manuscript discusses a pedagogical exercise students have undertaken that is both broad and integrated and as a result expands not only their global mindset but also a broader perspective about self, others, and the world they live in. The exercise in undergraduate marketing and international business courses is innovative, engaging, impactful, and fun. Survey results and student reflections suggest that the exercise enhanced the global mindset of students and broadened their perspective. Further, students through critical reflection appear to have expanded their perspective, empathy, and self-knowledge.","PeriodicalId":45098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Teaching in International Business","volume":"31 1","pages":"130 - 153"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2020-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08975930.2020.1796894","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44008144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study fills this gap with a survey of undergraduate business students, revealing how resentment toward offshoring differs by student political views and global exposure. Furthermore, multi-group analysis shows how the antecedents and consequences of such disparate offshoring attitudes also differ depending on political views, global exposure, and gender. The findings thus shed light on the range of potential student offshoring biases, indicating that educators must help students critically process the confounding benefits and detriments of offshoring. We therefore close with a stakeholder analysis exercise to teach diverse offshoring perspectives.","PeriodicalId":45098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Teaching in International Business","volume":"31 1","pages":"106 - 129"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2020-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08975930.2020.1802636","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45017398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research also examines how the personality trait of openness to experience influences the change in the degree of global openness achieved by the students. Findings show that taking IB significantly increases students’ degree of global openness in both online and face-to-face methods; however, the increase is greater with face-to-face students than online. By dividing the sample into both high versus low openness to experience and online versus face-to-face, findings show differences between the high and low openness to experience groups in both online and face-to-face courses. In face-to-face classes, the results showed that the low openness students increased their degree of global openness more than the high openness to experience students. The increase is not found to be significant with the online high openness group indicating that online IB education is less effective with high openness to experience students. The overall results suggest face-to-face teaching is more effective in making attitudinal changes than online teaching.","PeriodicalId":45098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Teaching in International Business","volume":"31 1","pages":"27 - 7"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08975930.2020.1729293","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43047085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aggarwal, Yinglu Wu","doi":"10.1080/08975930.2020.1738755","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/08975930.2020.1738755","url":null,"abstract":"Higher education, including that in International Business (IB), faces a number of challenges. One of the primary challenges is its cost that is rising at a much faster pace than any other costs except medical costs. We now have skyrocketing and debilitating student debt problem in the US. These rising costs also limit access to higher education. Unlike most modern industries that have been disrupted to varying degrees by new technologies, higher education does not seem to have undergone such disruption. Many critics are pointing to online education as a less expensive alternative. How would online education impact IB education? We address the question here in this issue. Online education offers many advantages. Many geographically dispersed students can take advantage of such education. In many cases, online education can also be asynchronous so that students can attend classes at times convenient to them. At the same time, professors can record their lessons at times convenient for them. These freedoms of time and place in learning can dramatically expand the size and diversity of a class and the range of teaching and learning pedagogies used. Given the advantages of time and place, online education has expanded dramatically in popularity over the last decade. According to the data by the National Center for Education Statistics, between 2007 and 2017, the percentage of US undergraduate students who participated in online or distance education at degree-granting institutions increased from 20.6% to 32.9%, and the percent of undergraduate enrollment that took online education exclusively rose from a mere 3.8% to 13.3%. Accompanying the rapid growth in the demand and offering of online education is the increased attention to the quality and effectiveness of online education. For example, according to Arbaugh, Formicary, and Hwang (2016), of the top 100 most cited business management education research from 1974 to 2014, almost a quarter are related to the topic of distance education and online teaching and learning. Geographic and cultural diversity is particularly important in international business (IB) education. The Internet allows for greater exposure to foreign cultures. Web content, such as videos and blogs, enables students to learn about other countries and cultures in a rich and engaging manner without","PeriodicalId":45098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Teaching in International Business","volume":"31 1","pages":"1 - 6"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08975930.2020.1738755","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48291904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study is to evidence that some students seem to be getting unfairly penalized for nonattendance. To address this issue, we provide alternative assessment solutions taking into account the different profiles of the students. This study is based on the performance in online tests undertaken in a subject of Financial Accounting taught in English in two groups at Valencia University (from Spain). This subject is especially important for International Business (IB) as managers make decisions based on financial information. In this course, students learn about the legal accounting framework, from a national and IB perspective (i.e., national standards and International Financial Reporting Standards). Difficulty of course contents, students’ study time, students’ university access mark, age, and class-attendance are determining factors of the mark obtained in online tests if we take into account all the students. However, for the students whose marks are the best and second best grades, only the difficulty of course contents, study time, age and parents’ studies are significant factors. Evidence is found that attendance improves online test performance significantly for the whole group of students, yet this factor is not significant considering only the best performing students. Our findings justify that the continuous assessment system should only require a specific level of attendance if the online test performance drops below a certain grade (for instance the second best grade). That way, these students would have an extra motivation to attend classes but better performing students who are keeping best and second grades in their online tests will not get penalized if classes are missed as long as they keep performing well.","PeriodicalId":45098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Teaching in International Business","volume":"31 1","pages":"75 - 97"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08975930.2019.1698394","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47572969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
