Chinese Globalization
Author: Jiaming Sun
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135068011
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
This book examines the explicit effects of global connectivity on local culture and society in post-reform mainland China. It focuses on individual level globalization in China and how global socialization impacts local residents’ behaviors, lifestyle, value orientation and the consequence of local transformation. Asking questions such as: What types of individual global connections have emerged and developed in China over the last three decades? What aspects of local transformations are influenced by such global connections? How does the impact of global connections vary across different aspects of local communities and institutions? Jiaming Sun uses an original micro-level relational approach to analyse how different types of individual global connections may make a difference and constitute certain outcomes of local transformation, the outcome being that global connections are capable of facilitating local transformation across different spatial, economic, and cultural settings.

Leadership Points Of Connection
Author: Dr. Bobbi Y. Cumpston
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 79
Book Description
Leadership Points of Connection developed from the realization that leadership is about making connections in all walks of life. But connections are not just for leaders. Points of connection are specific interactions with others that bring about illumination, creativity, innovation, and discussions that help relationships grow and organizations expand. Connections can unite people for a common purpose that impacts an organization or community for good. Meaningful connections can be intentional business meetings or spontaneous moments that leave a long-lasting impact. The author defines each type of connection along with leadership principles in each chapter through authenticity, transformation, and service. Real-life experience and practical examples demonstrate how points of connection can make a difference to individuals, organizations, and communities. Each chapter ends with thought-provoking questions that encourage the reader to know who they are, what they have to offer others, and how to make a positive impact through a point of connection. The author hopes that the reader will learn that points of connection go beyond "What's in it for me?" to the encouragement of others through authentic transformational connections that positively impact people and communities.

The Global Educator
Author: Julie Lindsay
Publisher: International Society for Technology in Education
ISBN: 1564845761
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 540
Book Description
Our children are at an advantage when they experience other cultures and develop skills in a connected world. They are better prepared to be productive and compassionate citizens in an increasingly global economy, and they are able to improve their communication skills, collaborate effectively and be ready for multicultural workspaces. Empowering educators with the tools to foster this environment in the classroom is a critical part of the process. The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) has been leading the way in this field. As part of its extensive publishing program, ISTE will be releasing in July 2016 The Global Educator: Leveraging Technology for Collaborative Learning & Teaching by Julie Lindsay. In The Global Educator, Lindsay illustrates the need for intercultural understanding and collaboration to personalize learning, achieve curriculum objectives and bring the world to our students by answering these key questions: How imperative is it that educators connect themselves and their classrooms to the world? What emerging education leadership styles are shifting pedagogy and why should we be taking notice of this? What are the essential benefits of embedding online global collaboration into the curriculum? What are simple steps that educators in the classroom can take to become more globally minded and start to change their practice? How are emerging digital technologies supporting this move to online global learning and collaboration? In addition to answering these questions, the book provides practical resources and powerful case studies from educators and education leaders in the United States and throughout the world who are forging connections across the globe, embedding these practices into current curriculum objectives and providing their students with invaluable educational experiences, including: — more — Yvonne Marie Andres, a California-based global collaboration expert and co-founder of Global SchoolNet, which has been at the forefront of telecommunication-based learning. Librarian and media specialist Toni Olivieri-Barton, based in Colorado, has participated in and led many online global projects across K-12 levels. She was the runner-up for an ISTE Online Learning Network Award for creating opportunities for online independent studies at the middle school and high school levels. And Anne Mirtschin, an award-winning teacher in Australia, finds and designs opportunities for her students and fellow teachers and brings rich learning activities to the classroom. Global collaboration has changed the learning ecology of her school and had a positive impact on her students. For educators and curriculum developers, The Global Educator is an invaluable resource to support and nurture a global learning experience for children and students everywhere.
