World View has played an extremely important role and has impacted my campus. I had the chance to collaborate with [schools] in China and establish a partnership.

I really enjoyed connecting with other educators that are passionate about global education. It was great to learn from them and work with them as we tackled important issues and concepts that our students need to grapple with.

Not only has World View enhanced and broadened my understanding on cultural diversity but it has also given me the tools needed to implement and tailor instruction with a global emphasis in mind.

[I plan] to work with more instructors on how to globalize their classes [so that their students] can see the multicultural world around them whether going on to university or into the workforce.

Knowledge and experiences I’ve gained through World View programs have broadened my perception of my role as an educator. Instead of simply being an English language instructor, I now also try to expose students to multiple global perspectives.

World View supports – in the true sense of the word – me in my goal to bring globally-minded curriculum and the very best teaching practices to my students, colleagues and district.

The different speakers and sessions at the World View symposia always expose me to ideas and perspectives I didn’t know about or fully understand, and I leave wanting my classroom to do the same for students.
