For instance, there may be a volley of answersfor Q3 if it is assumed to be of the highest priority at a certain time during the process oflectures/seminars. It is more effective to timely enhance dynamics between learners andteaching staff by making the usage of shared space mobile Q/A integration.

Accreditation bodies and universitiesrecognize that the preparation of lifelong globally competent engineers begins during theundergraduate degree [3]. However, incorporating international experiences into a packedundergraduate curriculum in a meaningful but affordable manner is difficult for courseadministrators and instructors. Furthermore, little is known about the effectiveness ofexisting efforts. This paper addresses the need to better understand how course instructorscan effectively internationalize their learning materials in an engineering classroom.The course used as a qualitative case study in

isachieved by the synthesis of inverted, interactive, and international learning in networkedclassrooms on distributed campuses, while learning technologies are used strategically to enablethe new pedagogy to enrich the learning experiences and outcomes of all domestic andinternational students on local and remote campuses at multiple universities. Such a different, ifnot unique, pedagogy is developed based on three basic premises: (1) contextual understanding isbest achieved via direct engagements (as opposed to linear lecturing), hence the "inverted"learning, (2) what students learn depends on with whom they learn (instead of from whom theylearn), hence the "interactive" learning, and (3) diversity increases learning opportunity foreveryone, hence

leading to increasing strategic value of the application ofdesign in businesses (see Figure 1), the ‘Design Ladder’ model (DDC (2003)) highlights the value of design forcompetitiveness. Typically, companies’ design maturity, exhibited by their attitude towards design, is reflectedin how they integrate design thinking as part of their innovation process. In the first step of the ladder, design is anegligible part of their business. When design is applied as ‘style’, it is typically seen as an appearance attribute,relating to the final physical form of the product, which may be the responsibility of a designer or someone elsewithin the company. In the third step, design is not the result, but a method, which is integrated into the

From thisinterconnectedness, the appearance of the “micro-multinational” or small to medium-sizedcompany that operates internationally has become a major contender. Given the highlyinternational level of economic activity now seen1, engineering graduates will likely be calledupon to navigate effectively in the global economy.In response to economic needs, post-secondary institutions have begun to address ways thatglobal competency can be integrated into engineering programs.
