Practical Suggestions for Teaching Global Education. ERIC Digest.
THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC INTRODUCTION Teachers may be convinced of the need to teach for a global perspective, but are often at a loss when confronted with everyday concerns about teaching global education. A literature review reveals a preoccupation with implementing global education with preservice and inservice teacher education programs. Missing from the literature is a significant perspective of teachers knowledge resulting from classroom experiences with global education. This Digest draws on current practices in global education to provide teachers with practical suggestions regarding instructional and technological resources as well as the use of cooperative learning for teaching global education.
PRACTICAL RESOURCES FOR TEACHING GLOBAL EDUCATION
Community-based Teachers and colleagues Students Having students with cross-cultural experiences (e.g., international, English as a second languageESL, and study abroad) enhances the potential for teaching for a global perspective (Merryfield, 1994; Taylor, 1995). Teachers having students with international experience or students who are ethnically diverse can conduct in-depth studies of cultures and countries that students otherwise may not have studied (Merryfield, 1994; Taylor, 1995). Additionally, teachers can draw on ethnically diverse students' knowledge and experiences to address cross-cultural conflicts prevalent in their communities (Merryfield, 1994).

Yes, we have to help them develop these new literacies. We get them to read the summaries, the date of the information and the percentages, to find the most relevant ones. We teach them advanced searching skills and we get them to find out about famous Australians or their home countries. It’s amazing when someone types in the name of their village and they find it.

    Introduction
    In addition to using books and magazines to find out about Internet Hotspots, why not also use the power of the Internet? The links below will get you started. They have been organized in categories. Some of my favorite sites are those that ask students to become involved in student discussions, encourage students to take action, facilitate student research or telecollaborative research projects, help students get their work published, and provide resources that move beyond what is included in a textbook.
    The Internet Resources
    • Graphic Organizers from the From Now On Educational Technology Journal - The Educational Technology Journal, From Now On (FNO), is published by Jamie McKenzie. At this site, he has listed various types of graphic organizers to use with your students and has linked to other useful sites to enhance your knowledge and use of graphic organizers in the classroom.
    • CAST - CAST is a not-for-profit organization that uses technology to expand opportunities for all people, especially those with disabilities.
