International Business Pedagogy Workshop: Technology in IB Teaching
10.30 – 18.00, 1 April 2020, Glasgow
The preference of Generation Z students and Millennials for how, when and with what to engage in learning, along with the digital transformation of business itself, has far reaching implications for international business educators. In this new teaching reality, how can we best connect and communicate with students on their own terms in order to ensure effective learning and how can we leverage what today’s technology can offer in order to make the study of international business more stimulating and inspiring? At this workshop we will consider a variety new technologies and digital developments that have the potential to significantly enhance the pedagogy of international business. We will also learn from practitioners who are already applying new and innovative teaching methods for IB in their classrooms and beyond.
