Globalizing your curriculum can sound overwhelming, but it is easier than you think! First of all, start small. What is one lesson you can globalize? Then you can move on to units. This guide is set up to help you along the way.
Under the Study section, you can find resources to help you out. There is a digital learning survey to show the technology offered at Sayre. The Global Education Checklist is a great resource to see what you are already doing to globalize your classroom and to think about other ways you can expand the practice. Finally, there are a few links to help you find professional development opportunities. The Teach section is set up to help you implement your great ideas! There is a sample global education unit. Also, there are many resources for you to use such as a global competence matrix, globalized ELA standards, tips for your ELA classroom, and Global Leadership frameworks for ELA, history/social studies, science, math, and world language. If you are still struggling on how to get started, check out Oxfam’s guide at the bottom of the page. The Travel section includes my reflection on the guiding question I focused on during my professional development in the Philippines. It also has my blog with photographs that document the incredible experience I had over there. |
