As our world becomes increasingly connected, global issues become entangled with students' daily
lives. To prepare students as globally aware future leaders, social studies curricula must reflect the reality
of these current global challenges. Drawing from theories and frameworks in global social studies
education, Jing A. Williams, Bárbara C. Cruz, and Anatoli Rapoport provide practical, cross-curricular
methods for secondary social studies teachers to incorporate global education into their daily teaching.
Organized by common social studies content areas, each chapter identifies topics that support
globalmindedness. This book also includes powerful vignettes based on real classroom interactions and
innovative, classroom-tested teaching approaches and strategies that engage students in activities that
hold personal meaning for them. Benefitting educators at all levels,
Teaching With a Global Perspective:
Approaches and Strategies for Secondary Social Studies Teachers
encourages educators to cultivate global
awareness, challenge their students' thinking, and support their development as informed citizens in an
interconnected world.
