摘要

本文描述了15年来全球在自给市场中虚拟沉浸式实践的经验教训,并探讨了疫情后世界国际商业教学的启示。全球虚拟沉浸指的是自下而上的学习体验,通常是在与我们熟悉的环境截然不同的环境中,而不是在特定的地理位置。“自下而上”的学习意味着从实际的地面现实中学习,而不是相反,“自上而下”的依赖于先前的知识。全球虚拟沉浸的目的是让学习者从同情——一种最自然的人类对贫困和苦难的情感——转变为知情的同理心,通过各种方式培养对不同国家生存市场的理解。因此,学生拓宽了他们的全球视野,为额外的学习铺平了道路,也许在可能的情况下,真正的沉浸其中。这一进程尤其重要,因为全球情况如此多样化,往往无法一概而论,在收入水平较低的地区更是如此。这种“自下而上”的理解生存市场的方法能够更好地理解环境现实、社会背景、市场层面的交换系统以及生存消费者和企业家的个人行为,为跨地域的国际商业教育提供了一种特别重要的学习方法。

Global Virtual Immersion in a Post-Covid World: Lessons Learned in Moving from Sympathy to Informed Empathy in Subsistence Marketplaces
ABSTRACT We describe lessons learned from one-and-a-half decades of global virtual immersion practices in subsistence marketplaces, and explore implications for international business teaching and learning in the post-pandemic world. Global virtual immersion refers to bottom-up learning experiences, typically in contexts much different than what we may be familiar with, without being physically present in a specific geographic location. “Bottom-up” learning connotes learning from actual ground-level reality rather than the opposite, “top-down” reliance on prior knowledge. The aim of global virtual immersion is to move learners from sympathy – a most natural human emotion in response to poverty and suffering, to informed empathy, developing an understanding of subsistence marketplaces in different countries through a variety of means. Students, thus, broaden their global horizons, paving the way for additional learning and perhaps actual immersion, where possible. This process is particularly relevant as global contexts are so diverse and often elude generalities, and more so at lower income levels. This “bottom-up” approach for understanding subsistence marketplaces enables a better appreciation of the environmental realities, social contexts, market-level exchange systems, and individual behaviors of subsistence consumers and entrepreneurs, providing a particularly important learning approach for international business education across geographically diverse settings.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Teaching in International Business instructs international business educators, curriculum developers, and institutions of higher education worldwide on methods and techniques for better teaching to ensure optimum, cost-effective learning on the part of students of international business. It is generally assumed that the teaching of international business is universal, but that the application of teaching methods, processes, and techniques in varying socioeconomic and cultural environments is unique. The journal offers insights and perspectives to international business educators and practitioners to share concerns, problems, opportunities, and solutions to the teaching and learning of international business subjects.
