Why teach GLOBALLY?

“Today's digitally connected world presents challenges and opportunities never before seen. To be successful in the workplace tomorrow, students must know how to interactively collaborate with peers locally as well as globally.”

- Bob LenzExecutive Director, Buck Institute for Education, Novato, CA

Global teaching…

- is STANDARDS based- makes you a more globally-

aware citizen- develops learners into

globally-aware citizens - teaches learners SIMILARITIES

& DIFFERENCES between cultures

Global Teaching is Required- NC Professional Teaching Standards How WE are judged as educators Teachers make instruction relevant to

students. Teachers incorporate 21st century life skills into their teaching deliberately, strategically, and broadly. These skills include leadership, ethics, accountability, adaptability, personal productivity, personal responsibility, people skills, self-direction, and social responsibility. Teachers help their students understand the relationship between the North Carolina Standard Course of Study and 21st century

content which includes global awareness; financial, economic,

business and entrepreneurial literacy; civic literacy; and health awareness

Standard 3 Teachers Know the Content They Teach

Global Teaching is Standards-Supported- Common Core & Essential StandardsHow are LEARNERS evaluated

- CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.CCRA.R.9Analyze how two or more texts address similar themes or topicsin order to build knowledge or to compare the approaches the authors take.

Example: Poetry Unit - Comparing Matsuo Basho’s Famous observation/nature HAIKU toRobert Frost’s Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening… also about observations/nature

Matsuo Bashōan ancient pond / a frog jumps in / the splash of water [1686]

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy EveningBY ROBERT FROSTWhose woods these are I think I know.His house is in the village though;He will not see me stopping hereTo watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queerTo stop without a farmhouse nearBetween the woods and frozen lakeThe darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shakeTo ask if there is some mistake.The only other sound’s the sweepOf easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep,And miles to go before I sleep,And miles to go before I sleep.

5 Steps to Global Competency in the Classroom

Step #1: Find out what CULTURES are represented in the class Cultural Survey - Who are YOU culturally?- What are traditions in your family?- Have you ever lived in another country?- Do you speak any languages other than English?

Why?- Shows me who the EXPERTS are in the classroom use

their expertise in future units (EMPOWERMENT & EFFICIENCY)

- Helps to develop a culture of belonging - Information helps with future cultural connections

Share em’ out!

What CULTURES

are in the

house?!?

GLOBAL PREP Step #2

Identify and utilize FREE Resources & Local Globalization Training - Carolina Navigators: FREE culture kit

"rental" to classrooms in North Carolina - Use survey results to determine GLOBAL

LEARNING GOALS

GLOBAL PREP Step #3

Determine GLOBAL LEARNING goals for the year & where they fit best in your pacing - Each group of learners is different

from year-to-year; as such, students’ global competencies will be different each year

- Use survey results to determine GLOBAL LEARNING GOALS

Get students prepared for CULTURAL LEARNING - Unit 1: What’s TRENDING? Unit*What’s Trending unit can be found on the EQuIP Call To Action Exemplar lessons site - Inspired by the yearly Google Zeitgeist video, this unit teaches RESEARCH skills through a global lens

Why?- Gives TONS of options for GLOBAL research and

exemplars- Great way to assess learners’ global competency

zeit·geist tsītˌɡīst,ˈzītˌɡīst/

nounthe defining spirit or mood of a particular period of history as shown by the ideas and beliefs of the time."the story captured the zeitgeist of the late 1960s"

GLOBAL PREP Step #4

Capture and Keep Learners’ INTEREST - Choose topics of interest AND those with

which students can connect- Example: Lesson 1 of my LOST IN

TRANSLATION unit for this year deals with CULTURAL INFERENCES To better understand the Eastern interpretation

of this “Obama-Mao” shirt, see the blog below: https://coopershappyfuntimeinchina.wordpress.com/2012/07/09/westerners-in-china/

GLOBAL PREP Step #5

Practice: Let’s see how easy globalization can be as we explore the extended perspective of this iconic event/image

How to use it- Great way to empower many Asian students
