Full Session Description (as long as you would like):

Students of this era need to be educated on the changing global corporate life and multicultural issues. Every country has a unique corporate culture and in the case of India, its diverse work culture offers lot of scope for learning Indian corporate life and its impact on environment, to new generations. There is a necessity for teachers across the globe to foster an understanding of cultural aspects among students and here multimedia tasks would come to teachers' rescue. It is worthwhile to mention that the inputs presented even in online magazines could be used for designing multimedia tasks. While the multimedia files give an exposure to the corporate scenario and culture of a particular country, they further help teachers to provide simulation of situations of working in different countries to students. In this presentation, the presenter would discuss a few sample multimedia tasks designed (by her) by using online Indian business magazines, to highlight the way those tasks create awareness of Indian corporate culture and its impact on environmental consciousness.
