Title: Article: Teaching for a Shared Future: Think Global
Body: From http://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2010/10/13/07levine_ep.h30.html?tkn=XRNCh5BnmX2wEzMTd8o5Hb4t8YySan/1QNyP&cmp=clp-sb-actfl Teaching for a Shared Future: Think Global By Michael H. Levine & Esther Wojcicki October 13, 2010 American students' lack of knowledge about the world is unsettling. According to surveys by the National Geographic Society and the Asia Society, young Americans are next to last in their knowledge of geography and current affairs compared with peers in eight other countries, and an overwhelming majority of college-bound seniors cannot find Afghanistan, Iraq, or Israel on a world map. Fewer than half our high school students study a foreign language, and while a million U.S. students may study French, a language spoken by some 80 million people worldwide, fewer than 75,000 study Chinese, a language spoken by some 1.3 billion. Our concern, simply stated, is this: America's leadership position in the world depends on preparing students to be savvy citizens with the specific competencies needed to compete and cooperate in a global age. While debates over constructing Islamic cultural centers and tightening restrictions on illegal immigrants have made headlines over the past few months, we've noticed that nary a word of the dialogue has focused on what is being taught to children about the connections between educational success and the value of cultural and global knowledge to a productive, shared future.
