Executive Director Julia de la Torre to Speak at Harvard Global Education Think Tank
Primary Source's Executive Director, Julia de la Torre, will take part in the upcoming Think Tank on Global Education in the U.S. at the Harvard Graduate School of Education on May 19th and 20th, 2011.
"Primary Source is thrilled to participate in this kind of critical dialogue on the importance of global competency in the K-12 context," says de la Torre. "We are excited to collaborate with other leaders in the field of education to support educators in connecting students with high-quality global learning experiences."
Developed by HGSE professor and Primary Source advisory board member Fernando Reimers, the Think Tank is a new professional development program for K–12 teachers, principals, and district leaders. The program explores the scope of global competency and analyzes effective strategies for promoting it. Participating educators will learn how to develop initiatives for students that will expand their capacity to be active global citizens.
