Gamifying really works when you swap your roles with your students, as georgian guru of Humanistic pedagogy, Amanashvilli says 'kids love taking adult roles' let them experience that regularly.
When one is a little kid, he loves grow faster and command.
I mean they'd likely to take more serious responsibilities in role playing games.

It's indeed inspiring, I should post more to join the big community!

yes, I'm a pioneer) There is a long journey ahead, but feasible to reach and realistic to go through in order to grow.

Bringing this ‘brand new’ subject to life requires
incorporating neomillennial learning styles and new digital civic and political participation. For all teachers global competence is a crucial shift in their understanding of the purpose of education in a changing world. Since teaching global issues refer to those aspects that affect all people, they have deep implications not only for current, but for future generations. Its construct is multidimensional and it requires a combination of knowledge, skills, attitudes and values that can be applied to intercultural situations.
Intercultural situations as the key component of global competence, imply to face-to-face and/or virtual encounters with people who are perceived to be from a different cultural setting.
The students learn to understand different perspectives on burning complex global issues, and learn to see the world differently.

@Ana_moderator, thank you very much.
We enjoyed this webinar and received all useful links and resources. from Tatiana. Excited by some practical tips from experts Europass.

Special gratitude to Marianna fro her dedication to her job, for involvement, sincerity in presenting CLEAR & PERFECT practice based planning and teaching materials.

Sure, Ana.
It is proven that globally mindful students are future effective lifelong learners. All critical areas
of the modern education system from project-based learning (PBL) to social-emotional learning
(SEL) and including the issues of conceptualizing diversity, inclusion and equity are encircled in
a global competence framework. Education policy never happens in a vacuum. Besides, global
competence supports the sustainable development goals. It is extremely important to nurture
global competence skills in order to prepare learners to be engaged glocal citizens, who are
creative, diverse and adaptive in a world of ambiguity and rapid change. It also requires the
widest stakeholder participation.

@Denis-Kudaymetov, Congrats, the journey is the destination. I didn't expect to quickly become a Forum Expert, that's primarily thanks to my virtual collegues like you, who read, render help, support and share with their best reflections and practices.

@Bousl2336873cb4
Absolutely! Apart from pedagogy, there is social and communication aspects, for instance, in our society the journalists were curious about new subject as they called it 'new subject, containing two neologism words'.
Teachera are still struggling in search of relevent resourses in the language of instruction.

According to PISA results "15-year-olds report lower creativity that 10-year-olds"
Isn't it a central component of education to be developed over the life span?
What is your experience like in developing and evaluating abilities of the teens in problem solving, creative writing and interpreting data? What are the characteristics of highly effective approaches in your practice?

Dear Bryan, Congrats! You are worth of receiving of most reputation and become Forum AMBASSADOR!

Hello, everyone

Ana, you are right, HOW is a good question.

The design of the Courses for professional development for teachers should undergo substantial changes putting forward teacher agency. Knowledge based economy needs the instructors who can teach students HOW to learn, who are able to investigate, inquire constantly. Today knowledge is accessible at hand's reach. There is Chinese proverb "if your student asks a glass of water, teachers should have a pail water to deliver at their disposal". It is feasible in case of:

1. Positive mindset of teachers, understanding and awareness of crucial role of a XXI century teacher, new mission of a teacher.

2. Openness and adaptiveness to changes, get rid of teaching as she/he was taught to teach.

3. Readiness to life-long learning, research and regular publishing.

Dear Colleague, The core of green school's curriculum is a project/inquiry-based learning. Through myriads of experiential learning approaches the students are encouraged to explore their interests and passions while developing their understanding of environmental issues. That's why it focuses on incorporating elements student agency and sustainable development.
World's new trend of schools.

Dear Ana, let me thank you again for this opportunity of global collaboration. International forum is sure to reach its goals set forward. Why?

I'm happy to receive feedback from my colleagues and read wonderful reflections worth of research paper in education.

Education as a social phenomenon, is inevitably goes through transformation, its paradigm is changing completely. I can imagine together or not, we all are facing glocal (global and local) challenges we need to gradually overcome.

In the long term, all countries take action to promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to quality education for all. It is the foundation of all and there is an urgent call worldwide.

Samar Mohamed, nice to meet you.
My appreciation of your devotion and involvement.

Perfect Idea! As Alvin Toffler highlighted "The illiterate of the 21st century are not those who cannot read or write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn"

We are currently preparing students for jobs that don't yet exist, using technologies that haven't been invented, in order to solve problems we don't even know are problems yet, aren't we?

Today young learners need to develop a wide selection of sharp "thinking and doing tools" for quickly analyzing complex problems, for conceiving and creating innovative solutions, and for effectively communicating and collaborating with other team members, all working together toward a clear goal. Correspondingly, teachers need to develop their competencies and support them in tackling complex questions, problems, or challenges through PBL.
The good news is that, as seen for instance, from the forum, contemporary educators are becoming increasingly aware of this need for a dynamic and challenging learning approach.

Only as you mention above, through active exploration of real-world questions, problems, issues, and perspectives students are able to acquire deeper knowledge and skills.

@MYLOG47799627c6
This is bitter truth.

This time TALIS-2024 report will be concise and comprehensible for practicing teachers to increase the readership.
It will address the issues of global teacher shortage, job dissatisfaction, problems of school leadership and school environment.

Mariam, indeed "Teaching for global competence does not require a new curriculum. It requires combining instructional strategies for active learning with global issues and weaving them into the existing curriculum"

I'd love to convey this message to those teachers who somehow struggle to teach this subject and to those, who consider that their main subject profile has nothing common with Global competency.

I want to acknowledge this Forum is abundant in valuable insights and notional quotes.

There is a very interesting 4-step Rubrics to assess creative thinking. It is easy to use. Unless newly acquired knowledge not used in a new context it can not be evaluated as high order of thinking, that is creativeness.

@Bousl, hello. Right, assessment should be focused not on subject knowledge, but on the skills that students use and demonstrate. As an outcome they develop, practice and apply the skills they need to research, plan and take action. They learn to understand different perspectives on complex global issues, and learn to see the world differently.

@BRYANb8875625e5

To help future generation to think independently about, and debate, important issues in the world, teachers play an important role in promoting and integrating intercultural understating into their practices and classroom lessons.

In other words, today students need to improve their thinking, reasoning, research, planning, teamwork, and presentation skills.
Existing international practice abounds in effective tools, such as skills development activities that introduce, develop and extend skills through team projects, individual reports and serious written examinations.
