Abstract

There is a projected need for 2 to 4 million of business translators who are not only experts in their business disciplines but also conversant and familiar with the use and limitations of business analytics. Preparing business students to step into the business translator role requires a general introductory analytics course. This paper presents a multi-component learning assessment to evaluate the depth of learning from such a course. This learning assessment is novel in a sense that it uses four distinct tools, both quantitative and qualitative ones, to measure students’ improvements in a comprehensive manner.
