MED745 Global Education and World Citizenry
The use of technology has changed the way that information is distributed to include all corners of the globe. With the spread of information people everywhere are exposed to common ideas and concepts. The individual student's concept of self must now include a vision of himself as a citizen of the world. What individuals learn must also reflect an understanding of those concepts, ideas, and knowledge that world citizens must hold in common. As these commonalities are identified they will, in turn, impact our educational systems and their content. This course will look at the current perspectives on world citizenry and present topics for inclusion in global education.
