About the Series

Global learning is an integrative form of learning. It intersects with many learning outcomes central to various fields of study; however, recognizing the intersections between global learning and other domains is always intuitive to learners. Educators play a critical role in making these interconnections visible, relevant and reachable.
​
This webinar series brings together faculty program directors, program staff, administrators and scholars to discuss their ongoing efforts to make global learning outcomes an integrative part of the essential learning that students need within their programs of study. Throughout the series, presenters and participants will dig into instructional design approaches, curricular frameworks, activities and assessment strategies they are using to enhance global learning outcomes in local and global contexts.  ​

All sessions in the series are designed to be interactive and free to all. ​
