language for Specific Purposes as stipulated by the existing Syllabi, require purposed efforts for the formation of intercultural business communication competencies. This research, conducted successively in the USA and Ukraine combining observational and experimental methodology, aimed at studying the influence of team learning on the development of intercultural business competencies and skills highly desired and valued by employers, such as team building and teamwork, critical thinking, decision making, conflict prevention, and resolution, etc. The results were processed by combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Spanning in time from 2013 to 2020, the study proved the effectiveness of project work in learning teams for the development of intercultural competence and business communication skills. Team learning in virtual teams based on andragogical principles and methodology adapted by the authors to the needs of Ukrainian engineering students resulted in developing team building, teamwork, leadership, goal setting, planning, decision making, time management, creative and critical thinking, problem solving, conflict prevention and resolution, interpersonal and group communication and collaboration skills and competences, necessary for successful integration into the global workforce marketplace. Besides significant enhancement of intercultural business communication competencies, team learning resulted in raising Ukrainian undergraduate engineering students’ motivation towards learning ESP, engagement in group and classwork, persistence towards successful graduation and gainful employment, and overall positive learning experiences.  \nKeywords: intercultural business competence; andragogy; team learning; ESP; post-pandemic employability; student motivation and persistence.  \nIntroduction  \nOne of the newest tendencies in the world centrеs of scientific and technical progress, including Silicon Valley high tech companies, is the transfer to the organisation of their production processes such as teamwork. The reason is the need to obtain promptly the cutting-edge results and to maintain competitiveness in tough market conditions. Therefore, in selecting their workforce, advanced companies attribute a great significance to teamwork, as well as other non-technical (communication) abilities and skills of prospective candidates (Blom and Saeki, 2011; Kassim and Ali, 2010; Matveev and Milter, 2004; Swartz et al., 2019; Irani, 2018) .  \nThis is why, the latest two decades saw the transformation of schools’ of engineering, business, economics, applied science, etc. curricula to develop students’ business communication skills, in particular, their ability to learn and work in teams, both on-site and online modalities. This is embedded in an andragogical approach to adult education (Loeng, 2018; McCauley et al., 2017; McGrath, 2009) and has resulted in the graduates’ gainful employment, more successful careers and promotion, better work/life balance.  \nIn the light of the newest developments of 2020 such as the COVID-19 global pandemic with extensive business closures and increasing transition of jobs to remote/online modes, the new challenge for higher education is not only to manage the processes of effective acquisition of f","cbCaiqJMmZOZ1yI1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqJMmZOZ1yI1","pdf",609220,17,"English","# Introduction\n## Team learning and engineering curricula\n## Post-pandemic online business communication needs","[{\"question\":\"What is the main objective of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To examine how team learning affects the development of intercultural business communication competencies and related skills valued by employers.\"},{\"question\":\"Where and how was the research conducted?\",\"answer\":\"The research was conducted successively in the USA and Ukraine, combining observational and experimental methodology, with results analyzed using qualitative and quantitative approaches.\"},{\"question\":\"What time period did the study cover?\",\"answer\":\"The study spans 2013 to 2020.\"}]","DEVELOPING INTERCULTURAL BUSINESS COMPETENCE VIA TEAM LEARNING IN POST-PANDEMIC ERA | PDF",1792066434,43]
