Enhancing Global Awareness and Diversity in the Classroom

This session, led by Tara Patterson of MSA, focuses on integrating global awareness and diversity into educational practices. Through examining key global issues such as poverty, climate change, and cultural differences, educators will learn how to foster tolerance and empathy among students. By utilizing the P21 framework, teachers will be equipped to weave these essential concepts into their classrooms, promoting positive identities and appreciation for diversity. Join us to transform student outcomes and build a more inclusive educational environment.

Global learning encourages awareness and critical thought about issues such as poverty, climate change, different religions and cultures as well as world trade and politics,” 1 and students who are educated about global issues, from multiple perspectives, are more likely to exhibit tolerance and acceptance of religious, cultural, and ethnic diversity, and demonstrate increased empathy for individuals.
