Each masterclass has some readings and discussion questions for you to work on before the masterclass. There are pre-masterclass readings or videos, as well as pre-masterclass discussion questions.
After you complete your Preclass Materials, sign on to Discord 1 hour before your masterclass start time. You will submit your responses to the pre-masterclass questions in the associated #prof-chat channel in Discord. Then, visit a Discord Meeting Room to discuss the Pre-Masterclass Discussion Questions with your peers. This ensures you are prepared for the masterclass.
No pre-masterclass readings.
What does the term "global citizenship" mean to you?
Why is global citizenship important in today's world?
What are some benefits of embracing a global citizenship mindset, both on a personal level and for society as a whole?
After completing the pre-masterclass discussion with your peers in Discord, go to the "Events" channel for the Zoom link to your Masterclass. The Zoom link will also be sent via email 1 hour before the session begins.
Reminders of Good Behavior Expectations During the Session:
Make sure your name is presented in the Aspire format: "FirstName LastName | Country"
Raise your hand if you would like to be called on
Please keep your communication on topic and related to the session
Be respectful and kind to the faculty, our staff, and your fellow participants.
Towards the end of the masterclass session, the Aspire team will share out a link to an attendance form. It is your responsibility to make sure you submit at least one attendance form. We will not personally remind you -- it is on you to get the link and indicate that you have attended the session.
The form will be live for 3 hours after the masterclass ends. After that, it can no longer be submitted.
If you miss the window to submit the attendance form, or if you missed the link, you have to attend an additional masterclass. In order to complete the program, you must submit at least one attendance form.
