Faculty Module #1: Importance of Global Competence for CTE Programs
Module #1 helped me understand the critical role global competence plays in preparing students for success. I learned that global competence is more than just knowledge of different cultures; it encompasses a wide range of skills, including critical thinking, problem-solving, cultural awareness, and effective communication.
I intend to incorporate more global perspectives into my curriculum: using real examples from around the world, discussing global issues and current events, and encouraging students to collaborate with their classmates. Additionally, I plan to create a classroom environment that fosters cultural understanding and respect.
I totally agree with you. Our students need to develop a global perspective since the world is now more diverse and everyone is connected through technology.
