Week 3: Global Education: Tools and Approaches Online PD

Hello Learners,

Welcome to Week 3! This week I suggest you start Unit 3: Article Analysis. In this unit, we focus on understanding the approach to Global Education through 1) Global Competence 2) Web 2.0 Tools 3) Diverse Literature.

By the end of this week, you should also have a good idea for the recorded session you will hold. Remember you are advocating for student and school success by sharing resources, ideas, and strategies through an online platform. In the recorded presentation, we are looking for the use of web tools to share strategies and also to interact/maybe even collaborate with online participants. Possible interactive tools include q&a tools, chat boxes, or simply talking over the microphone. Our emphasis is the use of web tools to empower the presentation instead of just a recording tool.

Here are the requirements for Unit 5 recorded session:

• Your presentation must be 20 minutes minimum.

• You must have online participants (faculty, colleagues, administration, state/district) attending your session.

• You must have some interaction between presenter and participants

• Shares resources, ideas, and strategies that advocate for student and school success. Bonus to support with research!

• The presentation must be recorded. The recorded session is an essential component of the course portfolio.

Here are this week's assignment reminders:

1. Complete Unit 2: Domain 4, Function 3 Reflection

2. Complete Unit 3: Article Analysis #1: Global Competence

3. Complete Unit 5: Step 3: Colleague Planning Reflection

Have a great day!

Week 2: Global Education: Tools and Approaches Online PD

Learners,

This week you will continue reflecting on Domain 4 of the Teacher Leader Standards and working on Unit 5's action plan. In addition to these tasks, I also suggest working on Unit 4. The objective for Unit 4 is that you experience a web conference through the lens of the audience before you become the presenter. Not all presentations will be highly beneficial to the school community, but some will be eye-opening! Not all presentations will be engaging or entertaining, but some will inspire you! The hope here is that you gain some experience in online presentations and web conferencing events whether they're successful or not. By experiencing and reflecting on another web conference, you will gain insight to help you plan (or revise) a web conference event you might have in mind. Remember, your action plan for this course is to hold an online presentation similar to the ones you will view in unit 4. The final product will be the recorded session of your presentation from start to finish.

Here are this week's reminders:

1. Complete Unit 2: Domain 4, Function 2 Reflection

2. Complete Unit 4: Global Education Conference Recording Reflections

3. Complete Unit 5: Step 2: Presentation Proposal Reflection

If you have any questions, feel free to communicate with me via email, or by texting or calling me directly at the number provided below.  If I should miss your call, please leave a message, telephone number, and indicate the best time to reach you, and I will call you back as soon as possible.

Have a great week ahead!
