Please also plan on attending the SIG Business Meeting - Monday March 17, 12:10-1:30.
This year we received over 30 proposals but were allotted only 2 panels because our dues-paying membership numbers are low. Please come to the business meeting and/or contact the SIG Chairperson Noah W. Sobe (nsobe@luc.edu) to pay membership fees and join the SIG, thereby enabling us to properly reflect the interest in this topic and organize more panels at the 2009 Annual Meeting.

At the 2007 CIES annual meeting in Baltimore the Globalization and Education SIG held a panel titled "Teaching about Globalization", convened by Sandra Staklis (Stanford University) and Noah W. Sobe (Loyola University Chicago).
Alongside interest in globalization as a concern of research and scholarship, there seems to be increasing interest in teaching about globalization in schools of education, both at the graduate and undergraduate level. In the panel in Baltimore we strove to feature a range of pedagogic and curricular approaches being used to present and organize globalization – not only in courses specifically on comparative and international education, but also in general foundations courses as well as in teacher prep courses.
Syllabi discussed at that panel are available for download here and we invite others to send the SIG chairperson syllabi and/or reflective writings on teaching about globalization to also be posted on this website. |
