Global Learning
What is the importance of global learning? Students must be prepared for the global workplace. Any job in communications, computer services, technology, and almost any job today involves some type of global interaction. Cultural understanding, language skills, and the application of new technology are among the keys for success in today's global market economy. This is why I feel that as a teacher it is my responsibility to push for more social studies and civics based education in the classroom. Education has become obsessed with "teaching to the test," and we have forgotten that students need to learn life skills about human interaction. There is more to life than just Math, Reading, and Language arts. I feel that we can incorporate those skills in a thematic teaching environment that will give students the skills and resources to have an effective positive career in the global world.

Very well said! I too agree that if our education system is improve, and our students are to thrive, than global learning studies must be implemented more thoroughly. For our children to become more well-rounded and culturally understanding, such implementation is an absolute necessity.
ReplyDeleteGlobal interaction will be a major factor in the near future. As this grows, people will become more connected to people all over the world and be able to accomplish things they never would have thought of.
