Global Stories

Speaker: John Small

Description:
Most textbooks, far from being global, present a very limited picture of the world. The presenter will provide global issues teaching materials that include countries and situations generally ignored: street children in Brazil, factory slaves in Pakistan, etc. Methods for teaching these difficult topics to high school and low level university students include a unique adaptation of dictogloss, shadow talking, and summarizing. These exercises come from the presenter\'s non-profit, self-published text.
