...self regulating e-learning framework that provides solutions to the problems discussed. It is based on a Continuous Improvement Model as proposed by Deming who was instrumental for introducing TQM, a quality management concept in USA and Japan in the post war world. The Model facilitates faculties to design and deploy their course content in an e-learning website. Provisions are given to collect and analyze feedbacks from the learners. The feedback received from students and automatic collection of learner behavior patterns helps faculties or course administrators to resort to redesigning and improving the web content to suit the needs of the students. The tools used for content creation, faculty student interactions and site usage pattern analysis are Google Sites [31], Google Docs [32], and Google Analytics [22]. A. Continuous Improvement Model Fig. 1 shows a Continuous Improvement Model known as PDCA (“Plan” “Do” “Check” “Act”) cycle. W. Edward Deming made it famous in 1980s. PDCA has become the fundamental tenet of quality improvement. It is a closed loop Engineering application, or a feedback diagram for the quality process. Every step in quality leads to performance improvement. Increased quality leads to rising customer expectations, which in turn drives further product and process improvement [17]. The self regulating e-learning framework is based on this model. B. Ecommerce Vs E-Learning Many of the ideas and tools used in this study are based on concepts and best practices...

...Conditions in Russia and Their Effect . . . . Kouznetsov and Jones CONDITIONS IN RUSSIA AND THEIR EFFECTS ON ENTRY MODE DECISIONS OF MULTINATIONAL MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISES: A QUALITATIVE STUDY IDENTIFYING ISSUES FOR FURTHER RESEARCH IN THE AREA OF COUNTRY CONDITIONS AND THEIR IMPACT ON ENTRY MODE ALEX KOUZNETSOV, Melbourne Institute of Technology ASHELEY JONES, Melbourne Institute of Technology This study examines entry modes employed by foreign multinational manufacturing enterprises (MMEs) when entering Russia. This exploratory study focuses on country-specific conditions associated with the chosen entry mode - an important component in the consideration of overall entry strategy. Information from field studies representing 18 manufacturers – 10 directly manufacturing in Russia and 8 selling their products in Russia via representative/sales offices – was obtained by means of personal interviews with senior management in Moscow and constituted the primary qualitative data. Research questions are posed for further examination of conditions in Russia and the effects of such conditions on the entry mode decisions of MMEs. The study finds economic conditions to be the only important determinant of entry modes for large multinational manufacturing companies investing in Russia with other country factors playing no role in their choices.

...are an important venue for firms to grow. For this reason, scholars and policymakers intensely debate the determinants of firms’ international expansion. There is a growing consensus that firms’ corporate governance influences their ability to export. In recent editorials on the costs and benefits of family firms, The Economist (2012, 2013) mentions the successful experience of German and Northern European family firms in international markets, arguing that these firms have led the export boom of their countries. According to The Economist, a key benefit of family owners is their long-termism, that is, their ability to internalize the long-run benefits of expanding abroad. In line with these arguments, Ward (2006) reports the results of a survey conducted among 300 executives: 43% of the executives of non-family firms acknowledged that their companies under-invested in long-term...
