Globalize Your Course
Go Local to Globalize!
Globalizing your course increases student engagement, empowers diversity, and energizes you as a faculty member. Global perspectives transform learning and as educators at Middlesex we can assist our students to become global citizens by infusing international elements into course content.
How Do I Globalize My Course?
It’s really up to you. There’s no definitive way to internationalize your course.
However, a first step may be to ask yourself how your discipline is connected to a
global issue or perspective. Then, consider what global professional skills are associated
with your discipline. and finally, how knowledge may be different from one culture
to another.
