Guest Speakers: Synchronous Global Engagement through Use of the HyFlex Modality in an International Business Course
Journal of Education for Business, v99 n4 p274-282 2024
The introduction of the HyFlex modality provides students with increased flexibility to choose how they participate in a course. This flexibility extends to guest speakers allowing for synchronous interaction with students to occur across long distances. The following article outlines how instructors can incorporate international guest speakers into an international business course taught using HyFlex. Emphasis is placed on experiential learning exercise design, scheduling speakers, student assignments, and speaker follow-up. Both students and speakers describe the exercise positively and its duplication in other courses may help more students engage in the global marketplace.
