Workshop series: Technology tools for global education

Bobby Hobgood, LEARN NC’s Director of Research and Development in Online Curriculum and Instruction, and Regina Higgins, Assistant Director for Curriculum at World View, will lead a workshop series called “Technology Tools for Global Education.”

Recognizing the need to support teachers as they prepare students with 21st Century Learning Skills, these two day-long workshops focus on the integration of global education into any classroom. The workshops are designed in a linear fashion to take the participant from the “tourist classroom” to creating a global classroom using technology. Participants who already possess rudimentary knowledge of global education may elect to attend only the second day.

The workshops will take place Saturday, April 5 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., and Saturday, May 3 from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Carolina Center for Educational Excellence. For more information or to register, go to the Carolina Center for Educational Excellence website.
