building a global mind
We are creating an integrated curriculum of innovative courses, digital tools and social metrics for teaching and assessing global citizenry skills for schools with strategic objectives to teach global mindset attributes and community service to their students.
WHY FOCUS ON STORIES?
It is said that stories help us connect with others, communicate ideas and imagine all of life's possibilities. Perhaps the more our stories are shared, the more we will begin to consider the possibility that all of the stories within our communities matter.
OUR MODEL OF INNOVATION
We are in the process of creating an integrated school curriculum of experiential courses and learning tools with students, mentors, social entrepreneurs and members of our diverse communities that feature film, creative writing, theater and media arts.
MEASURABLE learned SKILLS
We unpack implicit biases across color, class and culture with global mindset skills of empathy, collaboration and adaptability via innovative community service projects and coursework that enable students to interact successfully with people different from themselves.
