TY  - CPAPER
AB  - As
international
teams
become
more
dominant
in
work
places,
universities
need
to
adapt
educational
opportunities
to
prepare
students.

As
part
of
an
NSF
grant
to
study
global,
virtual
engineering
teams,
a
backpack
course
designed
to
teach
cross‐cultural
competencies
and
virtual
communication
skills
to
engineering
students
was
created.

The
course
is
taught
concurrently
to
students
participating
in
a
global,
virtual,
engineering
capstone
team
experience.

This
educational
experience
mixes
practical
hands‐on
experience
of
working
on
a
global
virtual
team
with
instruction
designed
to
help
facilitate
global
virtual
team
interactions.

This
paper
will
discuss
the
creation,
implementation
and
revisions
of
this
course’s
first
year
of
implementation.

It
will
highlight
course
content
as
well
as
practical
considerations
in
teaching
such
a
course.



Keywords: Cross-cultural competence, virtual communication, global virtual teams,international education.
