Friday & Saturday, November 8 – 9, 2013
Global Challenges Institute
Washington, D.C.
DEADLINE TO REGISTER: October 9, 2013
This two-day institute introduces participants to numerous tools for educating globally competent citizens. Global Engagement Scholars (faculty members) from 11 AASCU campuses describe how they have built courses and curricula around the Center for Strategic and International Studies’ 7 Revolutions Framework (population, resources, technology, information, economic integration, conflict/security and governance). Institute leaders demonstrate the teaching materials and resources they have found most valuable in the courses they teach (including introductory, first-year, discipline-based and honors courses) and guide participants in anticipating how these same tools could be used effectively on their home campuses.
To register, visit http://aascu.org/meetings/globalchallenges13/. The registration and hotel deadline is October 9, 2013.
