Global Oneness Project is a website that provides digital stories. The digital stories explore cultural, social, and environmental issues and also come with lesson plans.

Global Oneness Project is a great website to implement into lessons for older students. Teachers can explore different topics on this website and pick one to teach to their students. Some of the topics have lesson plans so the teacher isn't required to make their own. After teaching a topic off of Global Oneness Project, students can ask meaningful questions and have meaningful conversations about the topic they learned about.

"This film has historic relevancy. I can see myself using it to encourage students to think about the value of the space program and how it speaks to the American Spirit and how we are often looking forward in our progress. This film begs to be used as an exploration of what it means to be a global citizen, how students can learn from people not like themselves, and what actions students can take in their everyday lives to make the world a better place."

Michael Dunn, Director of College Counseling at Eagle Rock School & Professional Development Center
