    in innovative and forward-thinking perspectives. Proposed topics should be

    include but are not limited to the following:
    The role of technological innovations such as those based in Internet
    technologies and other new media, distance learning, the role of virtual
    learning communities, simulations and virtual reality applications,

    of organizations; international and intercultural perspectives on trends in
    management education; emotional and cognitive perspectives; service
    learning; corporate universities, emerging visions of management education;
    ethical and spiritual perspectives; consulting, internships and field
    experiences; faculty externships; assessment and accreditation of management
    education; comparative studies of curriculum development; film and fiction
    as learning media; and critical, postmodern approaches.

    Interested chapter contributors should first contact the Series Editors
    Charles Wankel <wankelc@stjohns.edu> and Robert DeFillippi
    <rdefilli@suffolk.edu> with a brief one-page outline of their proposed
    chapter topic, including how their chapter will contribute to innovative
    rethinking of current management education theory or practice. Please
    include a brief summary of your qualifications for authoring the proposed
    chapter. Once your topic is accepted, we will work with you on developing a
    more detailed plan for your chapter. Final revised manuscripts should be
    delivered to the Series editors by April 15, 2001, in order to be included
    in the volume for August 2001 publication.
