Phase 1: Group Synthesis Global learning beings with awareness and must be taught in a deliberate and meaningful way that encompasses real life situations, beliefs, languages, and cultures. When global learning is formatted correctly it will improve communication, understanding, develop critical thinking skills, and build awareness of world issues. While family, friends and home seem to be a sense of identity or where we find our sense of place for most of our group other factors are mentioned such as playing a sport, being on a swim team or academics. In our group it seems that we have a vast number of roles people play when participating in a group. This is a strength that our group will have since we can’t all lead or follow. Within our group I noticed that we have leaders, researchers, supporters and a variety of personal experiences that will enrich our group. One reoccurring problem that I read frequently in your responses was the state of the economy in your community. There are homeless people and people without jobs across the nation. Other problems mentioned are earthquakes in Turkey, lack of student respect in the schools and lack of parent participation in schools due to busing. Further investigation will be needed to learn more and solve these problems through research and collaboration. Some changes suggested by our group so far are providing more shelters, fundraisers and making sure that housing is built to withstand the elements of nature. To change problems like these we will need confident people who are passionate about making changes. We will need to be optimistic and collaborate with each other to solve problems. I am excited about working with you and learning about the different perspectives in our group. We are so lucky to have students in our team from North Carolina, Hawaii, Russia, Beijing, and Turkey. This will help us view and solve problems from many different perspectives over the next few weeks.
