Japanese popular culture and globalization is woven into so many different disciplines and grade levels. The Take & Go Into the Classroom Series introduces teachers to interactive modules that bring together a variety of visuals, content experts, reading, activities, and assessments. William M. Tsutsui, author of the Key Issues in Asian Studies book, Japanese Popular Culture & Globalization will give an overview and then discuss this topic with the group. Take & Go Into the Classroom Series resources related to China will be highlighted that connect with Social Studies, Language Arts, Science, Visual Arts and other content areas, providing educators with an opportunity to use the resources either as stand-alone or cross-curricular learning opportunities. While supplies last, Japanese Popular Culture & Globalization will be sent to workshop participants.
