The study focused on 405 expatriate employees with international experience. Theauthors concluded that intercultural competence is a precondition for cultural diversitymanagement, but development of cross-cultural competencies can improve employees’performance and enhance organizational competitiveness.

Follow-up interviews were completed with a sub-set of 11 faculty members as part oftheir involvement in the larger study to examine their courses and co-curricular activities in moredetail (the interview protocol is included in Appendix B). These 11 in-depth [26], semi-structured [27] follow-up interviews were conducted in-person or over Skype and lasted 30-70minutes. The interviews were audio recorded and transcribed verbatim. The participants wereassigned a pseudonym using a random name generator to protect their confidentiality [28].

A: Throughout my design process, I feel like I may have spent too much time in my research phase. I think that I could have spent a lot more time trying to be creative with my solution. I also feel as though I could have spent more time trying to relate my problem solution to Thermodynamics and use more equations and formulas to backup my knowledge. Q: What is your Action Plan for continuous improvement? A: Next time I take the CIOPS exam, I plan to monitor my learning. I would like to keep track of how much time I am

, basically the difference between Pre- scoreand Post- score for each student is used. However, there were three different ways of identifyingsuch difference as: a) raw score increase (decrease) b) percentage improvement c) tier indicator of becoming top-scorer.Each one of these measurements have value per se, and can be used in different situations tomeasure the improvement shown by the students. The more direct measurement is the firstoption, raw score, which is basically the Post-score minus the Pre-score; this is a valid indicatorhowever it might misrepresent the actual improvement since a student with low score in the Pre-test has more room to get a high increase, which does not imply automatically that it is at thelevel of

In the simulation, theparticipant sees through the headset a virtual environment of a workstation, and is able to interactwith the objects in the virtual environment, e.g. pick up a LEGO piece, using the wireless controllerin hand. In this craft production simulation, the participant is first presented with a set of instructionson craft production as well as on how to use the virtual environment.

This isencouraging behavior because the stronger students are on-line and perhaps can provide betterguidance for others.Data showed that very highly active students had initial grades ranging from very low F to highA. Data also showed that those with the highest levels of activity ended up increasing theirperformance. Of the 22 students with activity levels greater than 10, 18 increased their gradesand only 4 decreased. This indicates that there is a benefit to activity.

students quickly learned how to identify theappropriate ASTM standard for 3D modeling of 3D printed testing coupons. ASTM D638(Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Plastics) was followed by the students for the3D modeling of coupons and identifying the exact testing procedure, including load rate andtesting data processing procedure. The created 3D coupon model was used during the 3Dprinting process, as shown in Figure 3 (a). Students printed pristine testing coupon using pristinePLA and ABS filaments purchased online and in-house prepared nanocomposite filament.
