I prepared this website as part of my IREX Teachers for Global Classrooms fellowship with the US Department of State. It is designed as a way for teachers, administrators and county education staff increase their level of global awareness in the classroom and help ensure that students are being intellectually, academically and technologically prepared for their future.

Collectively the three sections of this website (Study, Teach, Travel) address the following:

- Provide a comprehensive resource for that details relevant global education practices and learning opportunities in an effort to enhance student learning outcomes
