This past weekend, I traveled to Washington, D.C. for a symposium on Global Education hosted by IREX and the U.S. State Department. I arrived on Valentine's Day after riding the Amtrak to DC. It was fun meeting everyone in person after working with them in the online course.
The first full day of the symposium included discussions of global education and a Global Education fair featuring more than twenty organizations that contribute to global education. I left with a pile of resources. I had my first meeting with the teachers with whom I'll travel to Kazahastan. There are ten of us in all. We were asked to write an "essential question" that will guide our in-country learning.
