World View offering online globalization courses

Posted January 25, 2008 · by Emily · in Best of the Web

World View is offering two new online courses to North Carolina educators through LEARN NC: “Globalization: An Introduction for Principals and Other School Leaders” and “Globalization: An Introduction for K-12 Teachers.” These courses immerse educators from all leadership roles and disciplines in an intensive exploration of the rapid global changes in government, economics, environment and health, culture, and technology impacting their schools and communities, our country, and the planet.

An online version of World View’s week-long on-campus “Global Education Leaders Program,” these six-week courses require participants to read, discuss, and reflect on the most important issues facing America and the world today. The courses will introduce educators to university and other resources for continued learning of global issues. As a final project, each participant will present an Action Plan for their classroom, school, or school system to support the development of globally competitive graduates. Four CEU credits are offered for successful completion of the course.

Spaces are limited, so please register early.
