How do we get our students to develop a global perspective? A global education approach to learning focuses on the students’ place in the world community. This focus enriches the student experience by connecting curriculum to real life, by helping students manage conflict appropriately, and by fostering an understanding of the connections among peoples, cultures and environments. Participants will explore how teaching and learning can support an internationalized curriculum and international students.
