Challenge 2

Challenge 2- How can school and learning environments for children and youth go global today? 

Globalization: Expanding something, crossing borders, people, multicultural.


Internationalization: Exchange, out sourcing, nation structure, economy and politics between nations, reintegrate.





Class discussion:

Teachers are required to implement globalisation in their teaching, but what is it? 
In our class we came up with different defintions to globalization

  • Integration
  • Interaction
  • A smaller point.
  • Multiculturalism 
  • Online communication
  • The online generation.
These definitions are all points that could sparkle living debates in the class room. 

Class work:

There are several exciting ideas for getting pupils involved on the net. Onwww.espnet.eu/image sheets are available to fill out on areas like schools, hobbies, diaries, families and friends. After the teacher has decided what areas she was to work with she finds a class in Europe who wants to correspont with her class. 

Another webpage is http://www.etwinning.net/ which also allows schools within Europe to correspond. The difference is that the subject is open so you can work in whatever area imaginable.
