16Thursday, July 8, 2010

17. First you help them define the term “citizen
of the world”. Then you help them learn
what being a good citizen means -- to
themselves, to loved ones and family, to the
school community, to the surrounding
community. One’s actions can be directly
linked to one’s values (beliefs, feelings, and
actions that are important to us), so starting
with a basic understanding of one’s values is
essential to any meaningful discussions on
citizenship. The global context is
meaningless unless students are good citizens
of their own nation.

18. Right before our eyes, all that the education sector
has controlled, dismissed, manipulated, validated,
embellished, fictionalized, and ranked within an aura
of tradition and ritual may be accessed by point-and-
click. We need to stop chasing exponentially
expanding content. Inquiry, problem recognition and
solution, creativity, knowing one’s strengths and
weaknesses, communication, and relationships are
what students must be prepared for.
18Thursday, July 8, 2010

19. Becoming a world citizen requires knowledge
and experience of other cultures; U.S. schools
do not provide knowledge or experience.
Rather, they provide a cursory glimpse of
others in order to exemplify how not to be
American. “Diversity Day” does not create
world citizens, it patronizes cultural
difference and touts xenophobia, and always
winds up pandering American culture as
Eurocentrically defined. Only travel and
immersion in other cultures creates world
citizens.
19Thursday, July 8, 2010

20. Prepare students to be citizens of the world
by being one yourself. Teach from a global
perspective.
