Question: Choose one of the following topics (school safety, charter schools, the achievement gap, dropout prevention, or STEM) and discuss some of the educational issues we are facing in our local communities from a global perspective. Global perspective-taking involves three critical, developmentally based questions: How do I know? Who am I? How do I relate? As we struggle with these questions, our answers mutually reinforce the cognitive, interpersonal, and intrapersonal domains of human development, highlighting its holistic and integrated nature. Thus, as youths develop and enlarge their global perspective, they incorporate intercultural knowledge into their beliefs and sense of self, which simultaneously influences their compassion for difference and their motivation both to engage in intercultural relationships and to behave in socially responsible ways.
