q2 · i? · qualitative · r2
Interview finding from the case study. Students noted courses focused on U.S. examples and felt some cases were difficult to apply to their countries; they commended one course balancing local and global cases, which also helped U.S. students understand other cultures.
"Several of the Chinese students mentioned that they would like to see more close relationships between the case analyses and practical issues faced by their companies."
