Building Global Competence: Option #1 – Virtual Exchange
Our Global Learning Community
Over the last decade, One World has built up a global learning community to connect educators and students from around the world to learn with and from each other. Our goal with our global connections programs is to help you help your students see beyond their local community and connect with students from around the world.
Delivering Virtual Exchange Interactions with our global partner classrooms can be delivered via our formal 6-lesson curriculum, via our Global Celebrations curricula, or on a standalone, customized basis where we work with you to connect you to a country in our network of your choice on a topic of your choice. Please, please, please make good use of the global learning community we have developed for you!!
Virtual Exchange Formal Curriculum
Our formal VE Formal Curriculum (6-lessons) covers three units with six lessons both synchronous and asynchronous that generally take 9-10 hours to deliver over the school year.
Virtual Exchange Global Celebrations VE Global Celebrations (Holiday)
Our VE holiday program brings students and educators together to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, the end-of-year holidays, Chinese New Year, Valentine’s Day, Black History Month, and Earth Day.
Virtual Exchange Customized for You!
In addition to the formal programs mentioned above, we encourage educators to take full advantage of our global learning community to propose their ideas for connecting with overseas classrooms. We are happy to customize our programs to meet your needs taking your students on a virtual trip around the world.
