In fact,with the advance in technology, emails, video and phone conferencing have becomeincreasingly in practice over the conventional face-to-face meetings; they have oftenappeared as the new norm.Now a new wage of technology is sweeping into business; that is the development ofvirtual worlds. Virtual worlds have been rising in success just as the www revolution wasin the late 1990’s. One of the most prominent is Second Life®.Second Life® is 3-D virtual world that simulates an area about the size of Washington,D.C. [10]. Since its creation by Linden Lab in 2003, it has grown tremendously and as ofApril 2008 was inhabited by 13,448,143 residents from around the globe.Second Life® is often described as a game, in the broad

These areskills that are not taught in most engineering curriculums prior to the capstone course(s). Ourobservations are consistent with the observations by other researchers who have studied thedesign process. Wilson et. al 2 highlighted how students in the capstone course setting strugglewith setting milestones and soliciting feedback at the right times. Developing and effectivelycommunicating the project plan and status are critical to the success of the project. As noted byYildirim3, there is a need for understanding the relationships between design activities

Individuals were identified for the survey by workingwith Career Services and the Alumni Offices’ databases. Additionally, Six Sigma agents whowere not captured using the Institutional databases received a personal communication from theauthor.With the target population identified, each potential participant received an email invitationrequesting their participation in the study. If the email recipient was not an active Six Sigmapractitioner, they were asked to forward the email to the appropriate person(s) within

However, when the bubbleburst many firms quickly abandoned their corporate venturing units. Today, corporate venturingis enjoying a renaissance as firms seek to create value through innovation around the world andalso seek to retain ownership in the value they are creating. This course will focus on the newform of corporate venturing, with an emphasis on

The ASEM EM BoK had a rating systemto qualify the reviewers. Requirements are similar to those used for accreditation and Promotionand Tenure decisions.Criteria include the following: - PhD in the subject field - Professor or at least Associate Professor level - Tenure Status - Refereed articles in field - Text(s) in the field - Funded research in the field - Practical experience at the executive levelOverall ratings were excellent and will be published in a journal article on this topic.Future Plans to Use EM BoKThere a number of other activities that is based on the approved
