Welcome to the 2017 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, plenary sessions include a workshop on teaching effectiveness led by Dr.
Laura Carruth, a cognitive learning scientist. Other plenaries include a session with a
select group of master teachers, a session on instructional technology, and one on
teaching the introductory IB course. The poster session, where participants showcase
their classroom innovations and experiences, continues.

We are very pleased by the addition of a new thematic workshop on International
Entrepreneurship to be taught by two renowned educators – Patricia McDougall and
Manuel Serapio. Welcome to the team!

I take this opportunity to extend my special thanks to:
 This year’s keynote speakers: Dr. Timothy Duvall, Senior Program Officer at the
U.S. Department of Education and Ahmet Bozer, President International, The
Coca-Cola Co. (ret);
 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, Dr. Ilke Kardes, Jamaica Villegas,

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