Global issues
“These problems, which are important for people and
countries all over the world, are called ‘global
issues’. So, what are the biggest global issues today,
and why do we need to know about them? What is
happening to our world, and is it in danger?”

Active Learning
“Learning is not a spectator sport. Students … must talk about what they are learning, … relate it to past experiences, apply it to their daily lives. They must make what they learn part of themselves.”
(Chickering and Gamson, 1987, p. 3)
