Welcome to the 2018 International Business Pedagogy Workshops!

This annual event, designed for those of us who have a passion for teaching
international business, is now a great tradition sponsored by a consortium of CIBERs –
federally designated centers of excellence in international business. We gather each
year to inspire each other about teaching, learn about latest classroom innovations, and
update our pedagogical toolbox. As always, we have assembled world-class educators
who will share with us their expertise on: (i) the content; (ii) pedagogy; and (iii)
resources for teaching international business.

This year, we welcome back Dr. Laura Carruth, a GSU cognitive learning scientist, who
will lead a plenary session on teaching effectiveness. Other plenaries include a session
with a select group of master teachers, a session on instructional technology for
teaching, and one on designing and teaching the introductory IB course. The poster
session, where participants showcase their classroom innovations and experiences,
continues.
I take this opportunity to extend my special thanks to:

 This year’s keynote speaker, Peter Buckley, Professor of International Business,
Founder Director of the Centre for International Business and the Business
Confucius Institute at the University of Leeds.

 Our partners in the CIBER Consortium for Minority Serving Institutions: Brigham
Young University, The George Washington University, Indiana University,
Michigan State University, Temple University, Texas A&M University, University of
Colorado-Denver, University of Maryland, University of Miami, and University of
Texas-Austin;

 A talented Georgia State University CIBER team whose skills and effort are
unmatched – Thank you Farrah Bernardino, Jamaica Villegas, Paula Huntley, our
doctoral students in IB, and student assistants!

We hope that you fully take advantage of this professional development opportunity.
