Abstract

The aim of the study was to find ways to embrace the current realities of a global society and use it to build the intellectual capital of students from elementary school through college then into the work environment. This took a concerted effort examining the literature in regards to globalization, the intellectual capital needed for globalized work environments, and the implications for globalized teaching and training for adapting to current economies. This chapter is designed to help you begin your own examination of these issues with an eye toward educational solutions at all levels. A pilot study was conducted of international college students at a small midwestern university, to serve as a model for conducting your own needs analysis. The analysis should help you to begin thinking differently about the educational needs for globalized classrooms and work environments while building the needed intellectual capital to survive and thrive under changing conditions.
