Develop global criteria to evaluate curricula
How can we formalize and systemize how we ground curricula around global orientations through the cyclical review process?
Infuse global literature
What resources and analytical frameworks could we use to enrich our global perspectives?
Utilize global pedagogy
What instructional approaches and resources lead students toward global orientations?
Making global connections through technology
How can we connect with students across the world? What skills do we need to teach our students to be critical consumers of media and technology?
Remember the unintended curriculum
How can we represent a more global orientation in the schools beyond the academic curriculum?
Framing Our WorkCritical Questions:1. What are priorities in this
area?2. What processes do you
recommend be taken as actions to globalize the curriculum-schools?
3. What evidence do you hope to see in this area to make you confident that “students are attaining a global perspective”?
Considerations:1. Comprehensive (K-12)2. Finding meaning
between the local and global
3. Resources, training, and collaboration
4. Favor depth and significance over coverage
