Lead a Session

Asia Society invites educators with great program models to present their work at the Partnership for Global Learning annual conference.

The conference brings together teachers, school leaders, policymakers, and resource organizations from throughout the United States and world. The sessions are hands-on and a great way to spread your teaching innovations.

We seek proposals that fit in at least one of the following four strands:

Deeper Learning
The skills and knowledge an ever-changing world demands.

Help students learn how to learn. Give them opportunities to apply critical thinking and decision-making skills to real-world issues and projects. Design learning experiences that allow them to work collaboratively and effectively with peers and experts around the world. Moreover, see how this type of education can benchmark a student’s academic growth—and meet the Common Core standards to boot—to ensure they’re on the right track to success.

Expanded Learning
Creative approaches to global competence beyond school hours and walls.

Adopt a global learning framework and open a world of opportunities for youth engagements. See how schools are partnering with afterschool and summer programs, community organizations, and businesses to design expanded learning programs that offer internships, service learning projects, and other out-of-school activities to bolster students’ global competence and academic success.

A Digital World
Create a truly global environment, right in your own classroom.

Integrate technology and media to create a truly global learning environment. Technology provides tools to help students investigate the world, analyze information critically, weigh perspectives, and communicate ideas. It’s also an all-powerful platform for students to reach a broad audience on issues that matter the most to them.

Take Action
Students create their own future through real-world projects.

Globally competent students are change makers—they are not bystanders. They’re keenly able to recognize opportunities and problems and have the capacity to act on and defend their beliefs. A well-rounded global education not only opens student’s eyes, but also sets the stage for them to act in ways that are inspired by their course of study and driven by a desire to make a difference locally, regionally, and globally.
