Nurture Global Citizenship
# 25
Description:
Goal
Nurture global citizenship by expanding the Office of International Programs to become the
Office of Global Programs, funding increased study abroad opportunities, and creating global
classrooms to encourage courses taught in collaboration with international universities.
UNC Tomorrow References
4.1.3: "UNC should promote increased partnerships between its own campuses and
international universities and enhance global awareness of its faculty and students."
Narrative Justification
The UNCW strategic plan calls for the creation of an educational environment that prepares
our students to be global citizens.” The proposal includes the creation of global classrooms
with two-way global video technology packages and staff needed to support the increased
number of global experiences for UNCW students, faculty, and staff.
Major finding #4 of the UNC Tomorrow report is that the UNC system should "enhance the
global competitiveness of its institutions and their graduates." Creating global classrooms is
one of several measures that UNCW will undertake to realize our strategic goal of graduating
global citizens. This facility will enable students, faculty, staff, and administrators to connect,
interact, and exchange on a regular basis with counterparts at partner international
institutions, thereby providing our campus community with the necessary global perspective
for success in the 21st century.
A specific indoor location on campus, designed to facilitate work by faculty and students that
take place across international borders, with the ability to bring 3-4 locations online
simultaneously. This work would include professional research by faculty, and class meetings
for courses revolving around international topics or, in any course, for modules that address
such topics. Also in the room are gathered a variety of resources that support teaching or
research that reaches across international borders. Ideally, the global classroom will also serve
as a global museum. Globally-themed artifacts can be placed in the rooms so that students
and professors could come by when the classroom wasn't in use and benefit from the global
perspectives as well. This space would serve as an ideal location for hosting receptions with an
international theme.
In terms of physical layout, the global classroom should be adaptable to accommodate
different teaching styles and class size. The classroom should be big enough to accommodate
a group larger than what we already have in our video-conferencing room. Tables and chairs
should be movable in order to create a seminar, small group, or traditional classroom
seating. We should also be able to create a classroom within a classroom-meaning that we
have the classroom arranged within a larger room so that other students could come watch
the class in session without interrupting it. Thus, students will be able to observe peers as
they interact with students around the world.
UNCW proposes establishing a student abroad student fee to fund global activities, thus
generating $96,000 per year to support student travel abroad.
