Globalization: Jill Landes-Lee at TEDxCSDTeachers

Globalization means that we are moments away from communication, information, and collaboration with people thousands of miles from our homes and classrooms, with different cultures, languages, and perspectives than our own. How do we prepare students for a global society? This talk explores multiple pathways that teachers and schools can take to expand student experiences beyond themselves in preparation for a world which demands global competency. Jill Landes-Lee is an Evidence Based Learning Specialist for Canyons School District, Sandy, Utah

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
