Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The demands and opportunities of globalization involve not only America's economic competitiveness, but also national security, the need for tolerance in increasingly diverse communities, and a need to solve pressing social issues. To be successful, students need a comprehensive and integrated set of global learning experiences that help them expand their horizons from their neighborhood to the rest of the world. Schools as well as community partners and after-school and summer programs all have an important role to play in restructuring educational opportunities to help all students become globally competent. |
