SUMMARY:Exploring the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals in Economics Courses
DESCRIPTION:Virtual event register here \nUsing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Principles of Economics or Survey of Economics courses can help students bring the global local.  By engaging students with activities and assignments introducing them to the SDGs\, students explore how countries\, governments\, businesses\, consumers\, and individuals make continual economic choices either aligned with or in opposition to the goals.  A supplemental\, yet informal\, curriculum module presents ideas and activities to explore each of the 17 SDGs within the context of learning fundamental economic principles. By integrating these ideas into economics courses\, students can gain a deeper understanding of how economic principles intersect with global sustainability challenges and how economic analysis can help be part of the solution to these challenges.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2 pm-245 pm Eastern\n1-1:45 Central\nnoon-12:45  Mountain\n11- am-11:45 am Pacific\n\n\nJanet Scott teaches Economics\, International Business\, and Intro to Global Studies at Southeast Community College. Janet grew up in Kenya\, has travelled to 48 different countries\, and has a passion for helping students explore new perspectives and find global connections. Janet has served on the SCC Global Education Team for ten years\, and in 2016 was co-leader for SCC’s service-learning trip to Kenya.

SUMMARY:Deadline: Summer Institute for Global Educators 2024 Educating for Global Resistance
DESCRIPTION:The free online Summer Institute for Global Educators\, with the support of the National Resource Center Program of the U.S. Department of Education\, will allow in-service and pre-service secondary educators in all subject areas to develop courses and lesson plans with enhanced global and regional studies content. Educators from Title I and Title III schools are especially encouraged to apply. Online synchronous and asynchronous sessions will include the use of film and media\, simulations\, games\, and technology to enhance global learning and teaching. Pitt College in High School (CHS) teachers will have the opportunity to meet with CHS staff on foregrounding global issues while meeting University and district requirements. Participating Pennsylvania teachers can apply for Act 48 credits. 2024 Summer Institute: Educating for Global Resilience  Format: Virtual only July 22-26\, 2024 \nGlobal conflicts\, climate change\, and unequal development challenge both societal and personal resilience by causing displacement\, restricting resources\, and counteracting efforts for a renewable world. Whether in urban or rural areas\, people across the world grapple with creating sustainable livelihoods\, ecosystems\, social infrastructures\, and economies. If resilience can be defined as the competence to reduce precarity during a crisis and build a more thriving society after\, how can we best encourage students to learn about and become agents for global resilience? \nThe 2024 Summer Institute offers a free\, week-long professional development opportunity for K-12 educators\, combining joint sessions with self-selected tracks that balance interactive activities with time for individual research while prioritizing support for the design of high-quality curricular materials. All sessions will be held virtually. \nTracks Offered: “Building Resilience in the Classroom” Acknowledging the various challenges that educators and their students face today\, this track will introduce content and strategies to empower participants with helpful tools to better engage and help their students. From understanding the “new normal” of remote instruction and learning\, to existential threats to society such as climate change\, to the rapidly changing EdTech landscape with the recent acceleration of AI tools\, sessions will focus on growth mindset strategies\, critical thinking\, and problem-solving skills\, and help to develop a global perspective on mental health and well-being. \nInterdisciplinary Global Educators Working Group (IGE) Educators will work collaboratively to draw on the expertise of colleagues at their schools and will model collaborative learning for their students by producing a deliverable in the form of a globalized unit\, lesson\, or module. These deliverables will provide their students with the opportunity to examine political\, economic\, social\, cultural\, ecological\, etc.\, aspects of inequality from multiple lenses. Examples of proposed group projects could include Science and French language teachers teaming up to offer a lesson on global warming in the Francophone world; or Art\, English\, and Social Studies teachers collaboratively developing a unit on responses to the global refugee crisis in art and literature. Educators participating in this track will be provided with the time\, space\, and material support to (re)design an interdisciplinary\, global unit\, lesson or module. All educators will receive a stipend and a mini grant for their team to purchase curricular materials to teach the new/redesigned unit/lesson/module. \n“Teaching Global Conflicts” This track fosters an understanding of conflicts and peace-building through education. Sessions will illustrate the critical role of education in addressing and mitigating global conflicts\, with a specific emphasis on the unique challenges and opportunities presented by conflicts across various world regions.  Educators will delve into strategies for promoting peace\, understanding\, and reconciliation through educational initiatives. Educators will be empowered to effectively navigate sensitive topics\, engage students in meaningful discussions\, and cultivate a generation of global citizens committed to peace-building in societies and beyond.  Application deadline: January 7\, 2024.

We will also feature an overview of Latin American and East Asian artwork at the Johnson Museum of Art\, centered around plant and animal migration\, and an introduction to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s eBird kits. \nBENEFITS: \nParticipating educators will… \n– gain tools\, activities and knowledge to apply in your classroom around issues of plant and animal migration internationally and in our back yards.\n– connect issues affecting yourself and your students here in the US with other parts of the world.\n– “recharge” intellectual batteries and deepen your own understanding and appreciation for plant and animal migration.\n– have the option to complete a lesson plan for additional CTLE hours that incorporates content from the workshop\, with the support of our outreach staff.\n– receive a free eBird kit from the Lab of Ornithology\, targeted for the grade band of choice ($70 – $110 value). \nWHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE: \nWe welcome practicing and pre-service K–12 educators of all subjects and grade levels who work in New York State. While the 2024 ISSI will have more of a scientific focus than in past years\, we believe this year’s theme will benefit educators of all subject areas\, especially in developing cross-disciplinary\, project-based activities with a global focus. The ISSI is free for all participants and licensed educators will receive a $300 stipend.

Nick Kleese\, Jana Lo Bello Miller\, and Stephanie Rollag Yoon will help you bring climate literacy education into your classroom. Educators at all grade levels and all content areas are welcome. \nYou will learn why traditional climate change education (CCE)\, focused on scientific and environmental facts\, is inadequate to address the social\, racial\, and political dimensions of climate change. You will explore climate literacy as a broader competence that focuses primarily on developing attitudes and values aligned with how we should live to respect our planetary home. You will come away with teaching materials for your specific classroom. Participants will receive free CEUs\, a picturebook\, resource kit\, and more.

SUMMARY:Climate and Migration
DESCRIPTION:Summer Institute for k-12 Teachers\nMigration is a core part of the human experience and one of our oldest tools to respond to environmental changes. But current news about both climate change and migration can be panic-inducing. This summer institute for k-12 teachers explores the intersection of climate and migration with realism rather than hysteria. We’ll explore past examples of climate-related migration\, the nuanced relationship between climate and migration in the present\, migration as depicted in the arts\, and possible futures. \n\nThis institute is open to k-12 teachers across disciplines. \nThis FREE program will take place in person. Lunch will be provided. Space is limited to 24 people on a first-come\, first-served basis. \nProfessional development credit is available upon request during the registration process. Teachers who attend for credit will be expected to submit a lesson plan featuring material used in the program.

SUMMARY:World History and Literature Initiative K-12 PD Educators Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan International Institute’s World History and Literature Initiative (WHaLI) 2024 will explore the contested nature of histories worldwide\, across case studies set in Sub-Saharan Africa\, Latin America and the Caribbean\, East Asia\, South Asia\, Southeast Asia\, and the Middle East and North Africa. Discussions will include the politicization of educational spaces\, multiple intentions underlying efforts to prescribe curricula\, and ways that identity\, power\, and emotions map onto different interpretations. Participants and speakers will reflect on how to teach contested pasts with accuracy\, complexity\, and multi-perspectivity\, how contested histories are featured in both historical and literary accounts of important events\, and consider how to support and develop the critical literacies students need to make sense of conflicting ideas. Inviting students to opportunities to analyze contested histories around the world critically can create spaces for democratic dialogue\, empathy\, reconciliation\, and critical understanding. \nThe two-day workshop for middle school and high school teachers focuses on these issues\, using examples drawn from different historical times and areas of the world. The workshop will also illuminate challenges students face in learning such content\, explore ways teachers might meet those challenges\, and provide participants with relevant resources that can be used in the classroom.

SUMMARY:The Importance of Global Workforce Skills
DESCRIPTION:In person institute in Minnesota sponsored by the International and African Title VI Centers at the University of Minnesota. \nAccording to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Development\, “Exports of manufactured goods\, services\, and agricultural commodities to foreign countries are an extremely important part of Minnesota’s economy\, accounting for $33 billion in revenue annually and tens of thousands of jobs statewide.” Meanwhile\, Minnesota’s population continues to diversify. Therefore\, CTE instructors must prepare their students to compete\, connect\, and cooperate in a global economy and within their diverse communities.  \nYou will leave this interactive\, hands-on training with an understanding of which workforce readiness skills are important for success in the global economy and how to integrate them into what you are already teaching\, while meeting your required standards. We will work with you to integrate global content into your courses and share examples of engaging CTE projects as well as free online professional development courses and tools. Employer perspectives will be shared by a panel of local business leaders.   \nHeld in person on campus at the University of Minnesota West Bank. 9:00 am-4 pm\, June 10-11\, 2024
