nutritional requirements. b. (10 points). Our university keeps an IT phone service line (2002) for use by all students, faculty, and staff. During working hours an operator must be available to answer the phone and schedule the technicians if a service is required. Mr. T, the director of the IT line, oversees the operation. It is now the beginning of the fall semester, and Mr. T is confronted with the problem of assigning different working hours to his operators. Because all the operators are currently enrolled in classes, they are available to work only limited number of hours each day, as shown in the following table. Page 25.159.12

For the entire population, a Pearson r = 0.533 was determined, still exhibiting apositive association. When segmented by delivery method, the correlation coefficients showedFTF = 0.512 and DE = 0.611. These results are in-line with the results of Table 2, anddemonstrate a decreased association attributed to the variances afore mentioned.Table 2.

One of the open planningissues is for a student and faculty evaluation of the classroom exchanges. It is hoped thatstudents from all three universities’ will gain an appreciation for their peers across borders. Itmay be that the insights learned from planning and development of the international classroomseries could provide a valuable lesson in international project management.Bibliography1 McDonough III, Edward F., Kenneth B.

Knowles' concept of andragogy has beenwidely adopted by educators from various disciplines around the world.
