My name is Jennifer and I am the professor for TIGed's e-courses in global education. I invite you to join me and teachers around the world in exploring how to employ online tools to build transformative global learning experiences for your students. Today's world is changing fast, and bringing international issues and diverse perspectives into your teaching will prepare your students to succeed in the global economy AND shape a better future.
Two accredited e-courses are available to you, ideally taken in sequence: Introduction to Global Education and Introduction to Global Project-Based Learning. The first course will familiarize you with the driving pedagogies behind global education and guide you in exploring practical strategies for globalizing your curriculum. The second course builds on the first by exploring how global education can best merge with project-based learning strategies, including how to use online tools to effectively collaborate with international partners. You can learn more about what is covered in each course by visiting the Professional Development homepage: http://pd.tiged.org/
The first e-course starts September 14th, so register now to reserve your spot! Discounts are available for groups of educators from the same institution and for those from developing countries. Please pass this on to any educators you think might be interested in these professional development opportunities, and don't hesitate to be in touch with me (jklein@takingitglobal.org) or the TIGed Professional Development team (pd@tiged.org) if you have any questions about the e-courses!
