Conclusion and Directions for Future Research
The findings of this cross-case analysis revealed many of the often unspoken barriers to
cross-cultural design. The acknowledgement and acceptance of the need for cross-cultural
learner analysis is one of the most significant steps toward improving cross-cultural analysis, and this study revealed the strong sense of inclusivity among the designers, which was
limited largely by organizational and procedural barriers that, although present, are not
insurmountable.
