Teaching About the World in the Classroom

A new essay by contributing writer Xanthe Webb Aintablian discusses the need for global education and multicultural education in the classroom. Her thesis is that, "Studies show that U.S. students lack an understanding and knowledge of different people, places, and cultures around the world. The need has grown for the public to demand more rounded, higher-quality education for today's youth, and for teachers to understand the value and necessity of developing lessons based on global education." It's a must-read!
