Global Collaboration in The Classroom

     Global collaboration in the classroom closes the divide amongst not only educators but also students. A great example we have been looking at so far this semester would be our contribution to The Goals Project  2025. There are students from not only all across America, but all over the WORLD participating in TGP. We are all coming together to find better ways to improve the education system amongst many different locations. 

    Not only have we been participating in TGP 2025, our own class is interacting in global collaboration in other ways. We all have been required to create our own social media accounts and interact with other peers in our studies.

Edutopia on X, discusses how students are still able to come together all across the world while still being at home. In 2008, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development worked with the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development as well as the National Education Association to identify the most important skills needed to prepare students for the global economy such as critical thinking, communication, and collaboration. 

      One way students have been able to interact is through creating pen pal relationships. These students are able to interact with one another and share their languages, cultures, and interests while being in the comfort of their own homes or classrooms.
