 Modern learning must be global and therefore learning environments must be connected and able to ""flatten"" learning around the globe. This calls for a shift in pedagogy, a shift in mindset and integration of digital and online technologies. Author and global education forerunner Julie Lindsay illustrates the need for intercultural understanding and collaboration to personalize learning, achieve curriculum objectives, and bring the world to our students. How do we navigate these new waters of networked learning? What model can be developed for technology-infused globally connected learning that will support classroom teachers, education leaders and higher education? In addition to answering these questions, the book provides practical resources and powerful stories from educators who are already taking those first steps as well as those who are now running ahead.
