This year’s convention theme is Learning in the Age of Globalization. Global citizens “must be able to competently negotiate cultural differences, manage multiple identities, comfortably interact with people from different cultures, and confidently move across cultures as well as the virtual and physical worlds” (Zhao, 2007). Converging web, mobile, and social technologies have generated a level of communication and interaction never before possible. In the Age of Globalization, how are these tools being used to enhance learning and prepare students and their organizations to succeed in a global society?
