Exploring Misunderstanding in Collaborative Research Between a World Power and a Developing Country

Abstract

This phenomenological study explored what principal investigators from the United States and Mexico experienced when engaging in cross-cultural collaborative research projects. Participants were asked to articulate their understanding of collaboration. While the principal investigators did not vary on how they defined quality of research; their perceptions of collaboration varied. An agreement of understanding how effective collaboration is operationalized is pertinent to the improvement of student learning.
