  even though so many have unlimited access to
                   technology.
Why is Global Education Important?
 Technology connects us, so our students must respect,
  and know how to communicate with people of diverse
  cultures.
 A 21st century citizen must have problem solving skills
  requiring a global perspective.
 World issues affect us all in minor and major ways.
  Students need to be able to see the role we play around
  the world as well as our interdependence.
 A globally conscious student is a critical thinker who
  recognizes our common humanity, and is more likely to
  pursue social action locally, nationally or even globally.
Why and how should we use international
  sources to develop students global
             competence?
