Description
This session discusses the Global Learning Curriculum Model, a program where students exchange knowledge and build relationships with their international counterparts through technology, in order to develop ethical 21st century leadership skills and values necessary for effective global participation. Components of the Global Learning Curriculum program are explained with special emphasis on the development of the knowledge, attitudes, and skills of ethical global leaders. The presenters, with experience in designing and implementing successful K-12 global learning curriculum, demonstrate the use of their model template and website. Participants are encouraged to exchange global learning ideas, initiatives, and programs.
