Dr. S. Tamer Cavusgil and Dr. Gary Knight are pleased to offer a teaching workshop on teaching international marketing & business on June 26, 2014 as part of the CIMaR 2014 Conference. The CIMaR Conference paper submission deadline is March 17, 2014. Please submit your paper to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. The conference<http://www.uvic.ca/gustavson/research/research/conferences/call-for-papers.php> website is: www.uvic.ca/gustavson/cimar.php<http://www.uvic.ca/gustavson/cimar.php>.

The practice of international marketing and business continues to evolve in this rapidly globalizing economy. For international business educators, the changing environment of cross-border business implies new and novel approaches to educating tomorrow's managers.  Among other things, business educators need to reflect new realities including the growing importance of emerging markets and a prolonged recession.

At the same time, our teaching has to be relevant, engaging, and innovative.  A new generation of students, both undergraduate and graduate, provides new challenges for the instructor. How can we share the excitement of international markets with our students? How can we best connect and communicate with them via such pedagogical approaches as: experiential exercises and projects; web-based learning; videos; and cases and exercises?

This interactive session will focus on: (a) "what" - content; (b) "how" -- pedagogy; and (c) "resources" - for teaching international marketing and business. The presenters will share experience and teaching tools that have been especially developed for IB educators.  The intent is also to engage participants in an interactive discussion designed to search for excellence in the teaching of international business.
