| Title | Online Materials: Globalization 101 |
| Body | Globalization101.org is an objective online resource to teach high school & college students about policy aspects of globalization related to civics, economics, geography and history, without any fees or charges. Globalization101.org provides unbiased, easily understandable information and related lesson plans to teach about cross-disciplinary subjects such as international trade, world - wide health and environmental issues and global technological changes. The site includes 11 in-depth issue briefs, more than 70 news analyses, teachers' resource section (with lesson plans and alignments to state standards), video interviews and a useful links section. We have just recently uploaded a Spanish-language translation of the Culture Issue Brief: http://www.globalization101.org/index.php?file=issue&pass1=mains&id=14 and a Chinese Language translation of the World Bank and IMF Issue Brief: http://www.globalization101.org/index.php?file=static&id=23&PHPSESSID=fbe00dbb598381949bfa024c986a9d59 . Currently, I am interested in receiving your feedback on the Spanish & Chinese translations. We would love to have native speakers, as well as foreign-language students and teachers read the issue brief and provide feedback on level of interest in having a Spanish & Chinese language version of the Globalization101.org website. We are also interested in their opinions of the translation itself: is it accurate, engaging, etc? Would you use this in your classroom? We have a sample feedback form on the site: http://www.globalization101.org/uploads/File/Field-test_G101_Spanish.doc and http://www.globalization101.org/uploads/File/Field-test_G101_Chinese.doc . Feel free to use this form or just to send your own comments and feedback to g101@carnegieendowment.org. Thank you so much for your time and opinions. Your feedback will help give us direction on where to go next and will help our translators with future translations. Weiner, R.
