Are all these questions OK to ask? Are they offending anyone?’ Or would it be depleting this entire organization’s resources and money to hold this scavenger hunt and give away all these big monetary prizes?’ (701, 48)Ethics experiences beyond coursework and extracurricular activities included a range ofinfrequently identified, but substantially elaborated issues—often sensitive ones.

As a result of participating in IC, students gained a variety of technical andbusiness-related skills they likely would not have gained elsewhere, including how tobuild a website, how to build an app, how to write a business plan, how to make a movie,how to talk in front of people, how to pitch something, how to convince people to buysomething.

However, this system has often proven to developadversarial relationships among the project participants, majorly attributed to the lack ofcontractor's input in the design process, leading to change orders. Since the design process iscompleted with no contractor input, the probability of disputes deriving from behavioral andtechnical problems is significantly high. As for DB, the owner hires one single entity that servesas both the contractor and designer, allowing a single point of responsibility, contractor’s earlyinvolvement in design, and faster delivery [2, 3].

Further, student decisions toengage in global activities after returning from a global experience can increase the long-terminfluence of the global program on their attitudes and career plans [9]. These studies suggest thatalthough the structure and components of global programs can influence program outcomes,there can still be different pathways for students who have the same experience. As argued byStreitwieser and Light, global education research has often focused only on aggregate programoutcomes and not individual student experiences, but

As instructors, specific pedagogies can be used toinfluence whether students adopt a mastery orientation in the classroom. Some of these practicesinclude focusing attention on students’ effort and strategy use, not on abilities or intelligence;teaching adaptive learning strategies (e.g. planning, monitoring, and evaluating their progress inlearning); encouraging student involvement and a sense of personal responsibility; de-emphasizing the negative consequence of making errors

After executing the study, the researchers were surprised to find quite a negative bent in students’ responses to the course in the data. They recognized that students’ expectations and perceived experiences were quite different from the instructor’s expectations and intended experiences for his students. Therefore, the study was extended for a second year.
