Title: How to Integrate Intercultural Learning into Your Classroom
Body:
In this recent blog post, Melissa Liles writes, “Over the past decade, we educators have grappled with defining and assessing the most critical education goals for the 21st century:
• Science, technology, engineering, math? Check.
• Critical thinking, problem solving, and decision making? Of course.
• Intercultural awareness, foreign languages, competence in working across borders, and respect for other cultures? Really? Tell me more...
There is broad agreement that the first two sets of goals above will be crucial for the decades ahead. But many still aren't convinced about the importance of intercultural competence for 21st century learners.
Fernando M. Reimers, Harvard Professor, Connie Chung, Harvard Research Program Director, and their co-authors address this disconnect between what is taught and what critical skills and competencies are needed in the world today—and tomorrow—in their latest book, Teaching and Learning for the Twenty-First Century: Educational Goals, Policies, and Curricula from Six Nations.
…Bottom line according to Reimers and colleagues? "The development of global competence is a necessity for all students in the 21st century."

Title: NameCoach App Helps You Pronounce Your Students’ Names Correctly
Body:
From http://www.colorincolorado.org/article/what%E2%80%99s-name-story-behind-namecoach
NameCoach is an app that provides audio recordings of people saying their names, making it much easier to both learn and remember how to say a name. To collect names, schools use NameCoach’s web software to either directly share a link or send a mass email to students with a link to audio record their names. They can also embed a link online in a website that students will be accessing, such as a student registration page.
Learn more about NameCoach here: http://www.colorincolorado.org/article/what%E2%80%99s-name-story-behind-namecoach
Readers of Colorín Colorado (http://www.colorincolorado.org/) can use this app for free.
