how do I get started planning a Global ?
An easy step to get started is to take a look at a current standard of your content area/curriculum.
Global competencies can be met by adjusting current standards and curriculum to become globalized lessons.
Examples of Standards Based Global Education Updates:
Content area: Nebraska Career Readiness
Once you are comfortable adjusting a single standard you can start to incorporate global education into entire unit plans. Check out a two week unit plan for my "College and Career Readiness" class in the next section to read more.
Or view the additional global education resources for more inspiration with single lessons or entire units.
