About This Lesson
Given the global paradigm shift after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the rapid shift again after 9-11, it has become even more imperative to prepare students for global citizenship by developing their understanding of complex global issues and instilling the disposition to see others as they see themselves. The goal in developing the course was to create an interdisciplinary, common core based course that would be a model for high school teachers to adopt in its entirety or adapt from to fit their own curriculum.
