Universities are now operating in a post-globalized world. They need to be locally engaged while globally visible for continued success. Specific strategies include 1) unbundling education using fractal modules approach to facilitate more flexible and customized learning expectations of net generation of students; 2) open-source software and hardware platforms to facilitate collaborations around a short or multi-year, multidisciplinary brain stretching projects motivated by the real world challenges; 3) new courses on innovation and entrepreneurship to nurture experience seeking and enterprising mindset of students; 4) cross-border university- public- private partnerships for developing solutions specific to the local needs and can be scalable for the world; and 5) encouraging faculty members with glocal mindset.

오늘날 정보통신기술의 발달로 스마트폰을 활용한 스마트러닝의 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하지만 부정적인 시각도 높아 긍정적인 학습효과를 제시하기 위해 많은 연구가 시도되고 있지만 대부분의 기존 연구에서는 이론적인 학습효과만을 제시하고 있어 긍정적인 학습효과를 증명하기에는 많은 부족함이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 뇌파를 이용한 과학적인 근거를 제시하기 위하여 Mindset 장비를 이용하여 학습자의 Attention과 Meditation에 관한 뇌파를 분석하였다. 실험은 스마트폰을 활용한 학습과 기존의 종이를 활용한 학습으로 두 집단 간의 뇌파를 비교 분석 하였다. 실험 결과 스마트폰을 활용한 집단이 기존의 종이를 활용한 집단 보다 Meditation 뇌파가 지속적으로 높게 나타났으며 학습 시간이 지남에 따라 스마트폰을 활용한 집단의 Attention 뇌파가 높게 나타나 스마트폰을 활용한 학습이 학습자를 더욱 집중하게 만든다고 볼 수 있었다.

This paper focuses on historical instances of iconoclasm after the Reformation to reveal how iconoclasm had greatly contributed to the formation of the Protestant mindset in the early modern times. During the English civil war, when iconoclastic campaigns and movements were in full tide, the paper argues that the notions of novelty and progress were more positively accepted among radical religious groups. To put it in another way, the paper suggests a different way of looking the formation of Protestant habitus by giving accounts of how iconoclastic impulses spurred diverse religious groups during the civil war to break the mold of conservative thinking and to revolutionize the print culture hitherto based on patronage and served as a buttress for status-quo. From this analysis, then, we are ledto the different portrait of the protestant in the seventeenth century, whose mindset was not quite as solitary and guilt ridden as Max Weber would have us believe.

Many global business failures have been ascribed to a lack of intercultural competence, especially to a lack of an adequate conceptualization and definition of intercultural competence, focusing instead on the knowledge, skills, and attributes that appear to be its antecedents. Intercultural competence should be perceived as multifaceted important components of global management capabilities. Depending on the related concepts of intercultural competence, such as global mindset, intercultural sensitivity, and cultural intelligence, dynamic aspects of intercultural competence as learning process are suggested. Also, the domain of intercultural competence in the context of global management or business comprised three dimensions - perception management, relationship management, and self management. Each dimension is characterized by facets that further delineate aspects of intercultural competence. With respect to the domain of intercultural competence, appropriateintercultural training methods should be designed. In practice, human resource managers may benefit from gaining knowledge about which measures to use for identifying employee's weakness in intercultural competence in order to create appropriate training programs.

Since creativity has been emphasized and creative problem solving has also been a big topic recently, various kinds of research works have proceeded. Among them, this paper focuses on abstract thinking and growth mindset, which affect on problem solving. Also, this paper analyzes what kinds of relationships time perspectives and smart-phone addiction have with the two factors and how they influence on them. In order to do so, we survey on 441 primary, middle, high school, and college students. Our analysis results cover the relationships among the two factors, smart-phone addiction level, present-hedonic perspective, and future time perspective. In addition, we analyze the relationship among the factors with a structural equation model. By doing these, we propose educational alternatives in terms of time and plan to improve our adolescent's abstract thinking level, which helps their problem solving skills and their academic achievement.

In the era of industry 4.0 with the robust digital transformation, especially under the trigger of the Covid-19 pandemic, the process of transforming businesses to achieve the desired business performance depends much on the mindset transformation of each member of the organization, beginning with the thoughts of leadership and stakeholders. This study will evaluate the relationship between leadership's strategic reasoning perspectives on employee engagement or commitment and the company's reputation, thereby directly or indirectly affecting organizational performance. The study examines data from 382 companies out of 500 samples in typical industries in Vietnam using the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) techniques. The results show that holistic thinking is closely related to employee retention and corporate reputation, thereby increasing the business outcomes of the organization, whereas there was no evidence to support analytical thinking in this study. As a consequence, transforming the business to achieve the desired business performance is heavily reliant on changing the mindset of each member of the organization, beginning with the top leaders and influencers of the business. This will assist Vietnamese leaders in gaining a comprehensive understanding of corporate governance and controlling the relationships between organizational constructs.
