Saturday June 11, 2022, 5:30 pm Eastern <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Two months ago, Silver Lining for Learning hosted a show (<a href=\"https:\/\/silverliningforlearning.org\/episode-103-dont-just-be-savvy-be-world-savvy\/\">Episode #103 Don\u2019t Just be Savvy, be World Savvy!<\/a>) featuring a non-profit organization called World Savvy that focused on engaging students in real-world challenges in their communities and across the globe. In effect, World Savvy prepares young people to be \u201cfuture ready\u201d learners.<\/p>\n<p>In Episode #109, we will continue this conversation about nurturing learners who are savvy in terms of global thinking and action. For this show, we will meet with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/authors\/i22050-laurence-peters\">Laurence Peters<\/a> and chat with him about his new book published by Routledge in 2022, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/Creating-the-Global-Classroom-Approaches-to-Developing-the-Next-Generation\/Peters\/p\/book\/9780367643133\">Creating the Global Classroom:\u00a0 Approaches to Developing the Next Generation of World Savvy Students<\/a>. Peters will outline how to integrate global education ideas, projects, and perspectives throughout K-12 education and the varied ways in which global education can be understood. He believes global education must be an aspect of everything learners do today; only then can we build up sufficient global awareness in our youth to impact the world in profound and transformative ways. During this session, he will provide us with a roadmap that can be to used to overcome the myriad challenges and issues in global education today, including dealing with an already jam-packed curriculum. With this map at the ready, educators will discover a few well marked routes (and some not so well marked) for cultivating global awareness and skills related to perspective taking, empathy, and critical thinking. Whether you are working with primary or secondary students or perhaps in higher education or corporate settings, this session is must see viewing. Given the world conflicts seen during just the past few years, it is evident that thinking globally is no longer a curriculum supplement or \u201cnice to have\u201d feature if time allows; instead, it is an urgent calling because it\u2019s time to act. Think global, act local.<\/p>\n<p>Some useful links:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Slides used in the <a href=\"https:\/\/silverliningforlearning.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Global-ED-Benchmarks-Present-Laurence-Peters-June-2022_SLL-reduced.pptx\">discussion. <\/a><\/li>\n<li>Homepage: <a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.com\/v3\/__https:\/\/sites.google.com\/view\/laurencepeters\/home__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!c-j2DS4QzHmZSIIQUMfvWhykzgKaRa5qDdGBnzoSaIaqMu1VIsd0rZm_Ifedt6yDLDIeNBjxStIsa_ND_kTs$\">https:\/\/sites.google.com\/view\/laurencepeters\/home<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Global\u2019s Newsletter: <a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.com\/v3\/__https:\/\/global35a.substack.com\/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!c-j2DS4QzHmZSIIQUMfvWhykzgKaRa5qDdGBnzoSaIaqMu1VIsd0rZm_Ifedt6yDLDIeNBjxStIsa_9vMfM0$\">https:\/\/global35a.substack.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>More about our guest and his book below the video.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Silver Lining for Learning, Episode 109: it is time to scale up global education w\/ Laurence Peters\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xDuca6Rhagk?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/Creating-the-Global-Classroom-Approaches-to-Developing-the-Next-Generation\/Peters\/p\/book\/9780367643133\">Creating the Global Classroom:\u00a0 Approaches to Developing the Next Generation of World Savvy Students<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3415\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/silverliningforlearning.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Creating-the-Global-Classroom-book.jpg?resize=211%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"211\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/silverliningforlearning.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Creating-the-Global-Classroom-book.jpg?resize=211%2C300&amp;ssl=1 211w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/silverliningforlearning.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Creating-the-Global-Classroom-book.jpg?w=350&amp;ssl=1 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 211px) 100vw, 211px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Introduction<\/p>\n<p><strong>Part One: Frameworks for Global Understanding<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Why Global Education Matters: Need for a New Paradigm<\/li>\n<li>What Is &#8220;Global Education&#8221;?<\/li>\n<li>Pedagogical Perspectives<\/li>\n<li>Ideological\u00a0Framework<\/li>\n<li>Citizenship and Human Rights<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Part Two: School and Classroom Approaches<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>Engaging in Global Popular Culture<\/li>\n<li>The Dangers of a Single Story<\/li>\n<li>Maximizing the &#8220;Global&#8221; in Global Education Technology<\/li>\n<li>Global Education and School Culture<\/li>\n<li>Afterword<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Appendices<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"11\">\n<li>Appendix One: Global Lessons Plans<\/li>\n<li>Appendix Two: Immigration<\/li>\n<li>Appendix Three: Some Sample Global Lesson Plans<\/li>\n<li>Appendix Four: Global Collaborative Connections<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3416\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/silverliningforlearning.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Laurence-Peters.jpg?resize=300%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/silverliningforlearning.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Laurence-Peters.jpg?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/silverliningforlearning.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Laurence-Peters.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/authors\/i22050-laurence-peters\">Laurence Peters<\/a> <\/strong>was born in London, England, and studied at the University of Sussex and later taught English for several years in the UK before subsequently moving to the US to pursue a doctorate degree in Education.
