  • Online Seminar As Creative Learning Methodology in E-Training
    Online Seminar as Creative Learning Methodology in E-training Ariel N. Valerio AMA Education System 59 Panay Avenue, Quezon City, Philippines Tel. 373-3901 loc. 266 Fax 371-1661 [email protected] Abstract In a period of fast-paced technological transformations, the new global knowledge economy is witnessing the rise of corporate universities (or learning institutions established by big corporations for the training and development needs of their employees) and the corresponding corporatization of traditional universities (or learning institutions that streamline their human and material resources for efficient, economic and effective operations). This development has led to the advent of virtual classrooms where students or employees undergo the learning process in the comfort of their homes or inside their offices. This mode of learning also challenges the traditional "chalk and talk” system of education where the teacher considers the student or trainee as receptacle of information. E-learning provides every opportunity for the learner to compress time and maximize the benefits of technology in education. In the Philippines, only a few universities are engaged in e-learning: University of the Philippines (Open University), Philippine Women’s University, and Polytechnic University of the Philippines where courses can be taken in full through “distance education”; De La Salle University, Ateneo de Manila University, and the AMA Computer University, meanwhile, offer online content as part of “blended learning”. This paper takes off from the AMA experience in e-learning as a corporate university and therefore discusses the online seminar as a component of e-learning for both students and employees. While e-learning is meant for the academic community, e-training at AMAES focuses on the non-academic employees.

  • Do Employers Value Return Migrants? an Experiment on the Returns to Foreign Experience
    Do Employers Value Return Migrants? An Experiment on the Returns to Foreign Experience Paolo Abarcar1 University of Michigan April 8, 2015 ***PRELIMINARY: PLEASE DO NOT CITE*** Abstract—Return migration is a potentially important channel through which migrant-sending countries stand to benefit from international migration. Yet to date, its consequences for return migrants and domestic labor markets remain poorly understood. What is the value of return migrants, and the foreign work experience they bring, to domestic employers? I conduct an audit study in the Philippines, sending over 8,000 fictitious resumes in response to online job postings across multiple occupations. Resumes describe typical Filipino job seekers except I randomly assign some to possess varying lengths of foreign work experience. I record callback rates for interviews. I find that employers appear to disfavor return migrants: workers with foreign experience receive 12 percent less callbacks than never-migrants, with callback rates declining for every year spent abroad instead of at home. By varying various aspects of resume job applications, I provide evidence against negative signaling, high expectations for wages, overqualification, and high job turnover rates as primary explanations. Instead, I provide evidence of the importance of location-specific human capital and suggest that its value possibly deteriorates as a worker spends time away from the domestic economy. JEL: O15, F22, J61 1 735 S. State St., Ann Arbor, MI 48109. Email: [email protected]. I am especially grateful to Dean Yang for his advice. I also thank Brian Jacob, Achyuta Adhvaryu, Jeff Smith, Prachi Jain, Michael Clemens and seminar participants at PacDev 2015 and the University of Michigan’s Development Seminar for helpful comments.
