This unit introduces students to the Global Scholars program and e-classroom. Students get to know their international peers by posting introductions to themselves and their cities in the e-classroom discussion board, and by reading and replying to others. Students learn to identify and share perspectives and to respond respectfully to the perspectives of others.
In the Meet the Global Scholars digital project, our class creates a video where students introduce our city, school, and classroom.
