Preparing Students for Global Citizenship
July 10-August 6, 2019
Today’s students live in an increasingly globalized and interconnected world. To successfully learn, collaborate, and lead in the future, they need to understand and wrestle with topics of global significance. This online course offers an introduction to trans-regional issues that affect the lives and experiences of people living around the world. You will learn about globalization, the environment, and international health as well as the organizations and people who work together to find fair and sustainable solutions to today’s most pressing challenges. Using online resources and readings, scholar videos, and interactive discussion forums, you will collaborate to expand your thinking about global issues and to explore ways to integrate the study of global topics into your teaching. Course highlights include “Featured Teacher” ideas for K-12 classroom application, integration of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, and weekly “web highlight” resources for classroom use. Open to all K-12 educators.

Title: Highest Aspirations Podcast Series for English Language Teachers
Body:
From https://ellevationeducation.com/ell-community/type/podcast
ELLevation's Highest Aspirations strives to engage in important conversations about the most rapidly growing student demographic in the United States - English Language Learners. Interviewers speak with educators and students, researchers and policy makers, and parents and community members about how we can help all students reach their highest aspirations.
In a recent episode (https://anchor.fm/highest-aspirations/episodes/S2E7-Back-to-Basics-Isnt-Boring-With-Jana-Echevarria-e3c9fl/a-ab86do), Jana Echevarria discusses these questions: "How might a back to basics approach help EL educators ground themselves in practices that can provide the most impact for the students they serve? What are some of the pitfalls of constantly searching for 'the next new thing' and how can we avoid them? How might we help bridge the gap between research and practice when vetting, implementing, and assessing educational tools and practices?" You can see a follow-up post on Dr. Echevarria's website at http://www.janaechevarria.com/?p=1212
