Outline

I will introduce the scope and sequence of my course and our biggest project, a 6-8 week global collaboration project- where preservice teachers learn from international experts, work through inquiry and innovation, and collaborate with classmates as they take on Global Goals! (10 minutes for snapshot/ 2 minutes for poster)
The audience will participate in polls to gauge their pre-knowledge of the global goals and have to chance to examine some of the final projects and leave reflections for the learners. (20 Minutes for snapshot/5 minutes for poster)
Participants can also choose one of the Sustainable Development Goals, targets from that goal, and can propose a solution that can be implemented by future students. (On their own time).
