Flat Students - Flat Learning - Global UnderstandingJulie Lindsay
Many educators are now joining themselves, their students and schools to others across the globe. We all know that global collaboration, the sort that includes full connectivity and collaboration that leads to co-creation of artifacts and actions is not easy and takes time to plan, implement and manage. However, let’s think out of the box even further and start to promote and support independent student learning at the Middle and High School levels. Once the teacher is not the gateway (or the barrier) to global learning, then what?
The ‘flat’ student has a PLN and PLC’s to connect with at anytime. The ‘flat’ student can learn (connect, collaborate, co-create, take action) anywhere at anytime without constraints.
Join Julie as she explores this concept and practice of independent ‘flat’ student learning for global understanding and collaborative actions. Flat Connections projects will be featured as well as the new ‘Learning Collaboratives’ to start in 2015. If you want to take your global learning to a higher level, this is the session to attend!
Student autonomy for flat learning and global collaborationJulie Lindsay
The focus of this presentation is on developing student autonomy to build learning networks and communities of practice for collaboration, both local and global. We talk about the teacher as a connected and collaborative global learner, but we need to redesign the learning paradigm further to connect students in K-12 more independently with others. The role of the teacher as activator or ‘learning concierge’ for student network building is crucial. Knowledge construction via a non-hierarchical approach means the student must also learn to take responsibility for professional learning modes and not be reliant on the teacher as the conduit.
Join Julie to explore new ideas for collaborative learning to support deeper understanding about the world while working with the world.
Getting started with global collaborationJulie Lindsay
Presentation / workshop given at the Asia Society Partnership for Global Learning conference, NYC, June 2012.
See resources: http://globalcollaboration.flatclassroomproject.org/2012+Partnership+for+Global+Learning
Presentation for the Global Education Conference 2015 based on material coming in the new book I have edited and written called 'The Global Educator: Leveraging Technology for Collaborative Teaching & Learning'
It is imperative all educators become global - but what does this mean and how does it happen?
How do we define the global educator? Is it a qualification? Is it a self-declaration? Can it be proven through disposition, curriculum design, workflow, pedagogical approach, use of digital technology, or an ability to adapt and be flexible in learning? Is it all of these? As soon as the word ‘global’ is used we think about ‘global competency’ – are educators ready themselves to prepare students for adopting understandings that are global? The role online technologies play in supporting global educators is a significant factor also as it is through the use of emerging and established online technologies that global educators connect, communicate and collaborate.
Based on authentic material collected over the past 12+ months from global educators across the world this session explores the essential qualities of a global educator and a global education leader as well as global collaboration and learning design to go global, and provides strategies for becoming global.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
