  abstract =     "The IS '97 Model Curriculum reaffirmed the need to
                 prepare information technology students to work
                 effectively in an international environment. Yet, as
                 computer science educators, we face a never-ending
                 struggle to stay current in our field. How can we
                 incorporate yet another educational goal in the
                 curriculum? What is ``internationalization''? What form
                 might ``internationalization'' take in our courses?
                 This seminar will answer some basic questions about
                 internationalizing our courses. In addition, the
                 seminar will provide practical suggestions, examples
                 and resources to help you easily infuse an
                 international perspective in your courses. As
                 participants in a global economy and society, exposure
                 to international perspectives can help us build,
                 maintain and support global information systems and
                 technology. Computer science and information systems
                 bring to the world technologies that advance global
                 interaction. Information technology workers are
                 building systems that will be used by people from many
                 different backgrounds and experiences. In the United
                 States, the work force is becoming more diverse. And
                 with the growing focus on collaboration, teamwork and
                 virtual offices, projects will often involve working
                 closely with people around the world. In such an
                 environment, an awareness of other peoples and cultures
                 becomes increasingly important. There have been a
                 number of initiatives in government, education and
                 information technology that emphasize the need for
                 increasing our knowledge of other countries, nations
                 and cultures. This session will endeavor to help
                 participants become acquainted with the move to
                 ``internationalize'' curriculum and suggest some
                 practical ways to implement ``internationalization'' in
                 computer science and information systems.",
