Abstract

This study investigated gains in global perspective after students completed an in-class, experiential learning activity, designed for cultural awareness. Students were enrolled in a 200-level, one credit-hour, seminar in business at (removed) in the management department. Significant gains were found for the cognitive and interpersonal domains on the global perspective inventory (GPI). This asserts that even short, in-class, activities can increase global perspective.
