Two Models for International Real-time Common Class Using a Computer Network

This study shows how an international computer network can be utilized to have real-time class discussions internationally among students. Two models are experimented : an international business negotiation simulation, and an international economic conference simulation. In the international business negotiation simulation, two teams, one grouped by business-major students at the Inha University and some local businessmen in Korea and the other team grouped by students in the University of Maryland, USA and a group of American businessmen, negotiate on how to set up a Korea-US joint venture company in Korea. In the international economic conference simulation, Korean, Japanes, and American students discuss current international economic issues via a real-time computer network. The results of this study show that firstly, there is no technical problem to have a real-time international class via computer network, and secondly, because of this technical success, real-time common classes among universities can be devised internationally. This new method of inrernational exchange of educarion may open a new horizon for international cultural exchanges among universities.
