Guest Blogger: Paul Barnhart The X-culture project was a fun an informative project. The project helped me understand other cultures a little better and I hoped it helped them understand mine. My teammates were very cooperative and always willing to communicate whether it be through email or Facebook or Skype. Over the course of the project our ideas were flowing…

Guest Blogger: David Johannessen When we look back on the things we have done we always look for the good things.  This project was a success on multiple fronts.  Our group learned how to effectively communicate over great distances and different time zones.  We worked together in order to let everyone do what they do well.  If we had a good…

Guest Blogger: Michael Gomez I remember sitting there in class. Professor Muth had just let the class know that a major portion of our grade was based on a group project. I tried to get a feel for how the class felt about this, and for the most part we were all in agreement.  This project would likely be one…

Guest Blogger: Brooke Smith The X-Culture project was an overall unique and challenging experience. Not only is doing group work a challenge but when your group is located all over the world, things get a lot more interesting.

Guest Blogger: Robert Moroney III The X-Culture project to me, was a very different experience.  I was something I had never done before, and overall was somewhat interesting.  I liked how there were people grouped together from around the world in pursuit of the same thing, but the unfortunate part was how much people started to care after the first…

Luckily I was in a group of smart and motivated students. I would recommend this project to anyone taking an International Business course because it…
