Description
Global learning and sustainable development are key issues facing the world today. This book provides a clear overview of global learning, its development in policy, and what it means for teachers in practice. It outlines ways to deliver global learning as a cross-curricular theme, with examples of current activities and practice in schools. The book offers guidance on planning, implementing, and evaluating change in the curriculum to incorporate global learning, as well as exploring global issues through Personal Learning and Thinking Skills. It also features ideas from the "global context" of practice in Europe and beyond, supported by case studies of innovative practice. This book will be of interest to all secondary teachers who want to help young people engage critically with global issues.
