  • Global Education Strategies and Activities
    Preparing students for responsible global citizenship must include strategies and activities that reflect the increasing diversity of today’s global population. The cooperative learning strategy can be incorporated as a global education structure where heterogeneous groups are formed and engage in interactive opportunities. This offers a platform where students can be exposed to diverse individuals, as well as prepared for successful global cooperation and competition. Additionally, a structure of project- or problem-based learning can be employed. The project or problem of focus would be a global concern or issue that is investigated.

  • Data-driven advertising:
    Users generate a lot of data in every step they take on the path of customer journey and Brands can now use that data to activate their known audience with data-driven programmatic media buying. Without exposing customers' privacy, users' data can be collected from digital channels (e.g.: when the customer visits a website, reads an e-mail, or launches and interact with a brand's mobile app), brands can also collect data from real-world customer interactions, such as brick and mortar stores visits and from CRM and sales engines datasets. Also known as people-based marketing or addressable media, data-driven advertising is empowering brands to find their loyal customers in their audience and deliver in real time a much more personal communication

  • The Role of Nonclassroom Spaces in Living-Learning Communities
    Global education and global competence prepare students for the 21st century. Nearly every major issue facing people has a global dimension, from climate change to economics. Schools must prepare students to be globally competent by being able to both understand and act upon issues of global significance. Global education is built upon a foundation of knowledge and understanding but frames learning within the lens of rigorous study. This incorporates investigations, recognizing perspectives, communicating ideas, and taking action. The impact on student learning is great. Research has demonstrated that students who learn content through authentic tasks and real-world experiences are more likely to engage in learning, attend school, and achieve more. Ultimately, students who experience global education are more likely to have a competitive edge when entering the university system or labor force.

  • Eco Friendly
    Eco-friendly literally means earth-friendly or not harmful to the environment (see References 1). This term most commonly refers to products that contribute to green living or practices that help conserve resources like water and energy. Eco-friendly products also prevent contributions to air, water and land pollution. You can engage in eco-friendly habits or practices by being more conscious of how you use resources.   Making a truly eco-friendly product keeps both environmental and human safety in mind. At a minimum, the product is non-toxic. Other eco-friendly attributes include the use of sustainably grown or raised ingredients, produced in ways that do not deplete the ecosystem. Organic ingredients or materials are grown without toxic pesticides or herbicides. Products with "made from recycled materials" contain glass, wood, metal or plastic reclaimed from waste products and made into something new. Biodegradable products break down through natural decomposition, which is less taxing on landfills and the ecosystem as a whole. (See References 3)
