Program
Overview:
What is global education? Where is it in the larger landscape of K-12 education? Where is global education is your teaching practice?
This spring we began a dialogue on global education that included over fifty educators serving K-12 education in the Puget Sound region. To continue and carry forward what emerged from these dialogues, Global Source has organized a two-day experience of critical inquiry, engaging discourse, and professional learning community around this crucial area of K-12 education.
- Explore the place of global education as it is being defined and practiced in K-12 education, and in your teaching practice.
- Examine how scholars, policy makers, and educators are researching and defining global education across the wider landscape of K-12 and teacher education.
- Discuss how to find balance with teacher beliefs and professional responsibility, professional discretion and structural constraints, and pedagogy and practice.
- Strengthen your own definition and rationale for global education
