Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to present a cognitive analysis of virtual leaning experiences based on engaging interactions and collaborative work to enhance business skills in graduate programs. The experiences include virtual learning scenarios, autonomous learning, virtual learning technologies, and collaborative work that enable the learners to enhance business skills required for the modern world. Ten virtual learning environments are sampled to analyze cognitive processes for the learners to enhance four main business skills: leadership, entrepreneurship, sustainability, and problem solving. Based on the analysis, the authors discuss the opportunities for improvement and recommend the implementation of activities in which learners investigate and respond to an authentic, engaging, and complex problem or challenge through collaborative work. This initiative provides more possibilities for learner interactivity and cognitive processes development and fosters the implementation of engaging virtual learning environments for learners skills to solve real-life situations.
