Culture Card is like a profile of the students culture and heritage. Through this culture card he or she can proudly display the things they like about themself. And at the end of the UOI, there will be gallery walk,&nbsp; where students can share and learn from each other. With that we can have them brainstorm to find similarities and differences between their culture and that of their classmates. We will needing support and guidance from our coordinators to arrange their resources.

         <title>Developing international mindedness is the need of the hour. Drawing students&#39; attention to issues the world is facing like scarcity of water and letting them explore the reasons for the same will certainly lead them to think of some possible solutions. This is the story of ryans well. A good read which will make children think how a young boy can contribute so largely to society.</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>These are the following strategies that I would use in my class for promoting and developing international mindedness among my students:<br>a) Virtual Play dates where students can come together for playing interactive games. These games can incorporate social or empathetic messages and would help in promoting compassionate learners.<br>b) Reading of stories or travel tales - This will broaden the imagination of students and keep them engages in their learning process. The real life stories will help students in connecting better with real life situations across the world.<br>c) Reading newspaper/Journals - To give information about what is happening around the world and people's views on it.<br>d) Formation of clubs where every day some students can bring few interesting world facts for the students of club to discuss and ponder upon and present their views while learning from other's point of views.<br><br>Development of international mindedness among students is a collaborative effort which requires support of the learning community as a whole. It involves participation of all the stake holders responsible for a child's learning. It cannot be developed over night. Its a long term strategy which requires planning and execution along with reflecting upon our strategies for improvement. Students improved level of participation and acceptance towards different local and global topics will help me in understanding whether my strategies are working or I need to twerk them a bit.<br><br>Regards<br>Nidhi Rai</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>To embed international mindedness among students, the learning community need to work collaboratively. Collaboration means working towards the same goal. It can be achieved in many ways-&nbsp;<br>Engage the learners in constructive dialogue with people from a variety of perspectives.&nbsp;<br>School exhibition based on major festivals and traditions from around the world should be conducted. Learners should be encouraged to take ownership of the events and to tell others about their traditions.&nbsp;<br>Learners should be encouraged to attend multicultural events with their family members.<br>In classrooms combine the use of library material, puppetry, digital material and oral communication including local history and folklore to develop international mindedness.<br>Celebrate events that promote intercultural dialogue in music, dance, arts and sports.<br>It's a long term strategy as change doesn't happen overnight. It's not a straight line of progress. Student reflection and parent reflection will help us to know is our strategy working.</div>]]></description>

         <title>Shweta                                  To embed International Mindedness among students, collaborative case studies, would be a great strategy as the students would get a chance to think critically and in the group they will be able to share their minds. Second strategy that might be a great help is story telling and leaving the completion of the story on students and they can work again in collaboration to finish the task after brainstorming together. Sometimes, individual tasks can also be given at random, to speak on or to give their views on. Although in all types of collaborative strategies, they get a maximum chance to think critically but there is no denial that individual activities also promote them to be creative in their own way. Like in a role play method if some can give their responses through drawing, some can show it through different gestures like theatre and dance etc. then it would really promote International open-mindedness. Also Problem based learning is a very good strategy as here, students would get chance to speak their minds and would try to come up with different solutions if they will be given chances and liberty to perform or speak or to express their thoughts in their own way. then it will surely develop open-mindedness in them.</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The following strategies can be used to embed International mindedness among students:<br>* Organize a week - long international, intercultural event through which children explore food, music, sports, costumes, etc. of different parts of the world.<br>* View and discuss films and video clips featuring and/ or depicting global issues followed by social awareness through rallies, exhibitions, posters, canva etc.<br>* Use Assembly time to reflect on world around you.&nbsp;<br>* Organize Annual Functions on the themes related to global issues.&nbsp;<br>*Use news as a platform to discuss key issues followed by debates, declamations etc.<br>For effective execution of all the strategies mentioned above, teachers, learners, parents and people outside the school community need to collaborate.&nbsp;<br>Students' and parents' reflections as well as the observation of the learners' behaviour from time to time would help me understand how well the strategies are working.<br>Deepa Shanker&nbsp; &nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <title>Some of the tools that I would like to implement in my class room for promoting international mindedness are               Story narration	collaborative case studies, that would enhance the chance for sharing and listening to each other’s experiences	            Initiating debate and discussions on global issues                             	Give students their voice and choice to promote international  mindedness	Reading newspaper/Journals - To give information about what is happening around the world and sharing each other’s perspective.           We will need support and guidance from our peers and professionals from other schools to achieve the goal. We can check validity and effectiveness of the following activities by asking students to keep a reflective journal and checklist. All these are long term strategies. It is something that we have to develop in our learners and is a ongoing process the result of which will not be visible in a day or so. </title>

Children become very interested in sharing what they knew and practicing new things.<br><br></div><div>*During free conversations the children can be asked to tell about their summer/winter holidays, different places they visited, landscapes, types of homes, food, clothing etc of these places.<br>The process of embedding international mindedness is a long term process but student's and parent's response through reflection will help us to know if these strategies are working.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>ANJALI SHARMA<br>Students in today's scenario should be encouraged to be international minded as today's world is changing it is the world of inter -dependence&nbsp; of each other. International mindedness is the need of the hour as it will make the future leaders with remarkable insight into people and the culture across the globe.<br>It develops concern&nbsp; for others, sense of connections with others.<br>Some strategies can help to develop international mindedness among the students are-&nbsp;<br>Giving more opportunities to read and speak to the learners.

Students can enjoy story sessions of folk tales of different countries.<br>Recite Rhymes related to different festivals celebrated in the word. They can be good communicators&nbsp; and they will be more vocal confident.<br>Celebrating different festivals and important days with the students.<br>Let the children learn through exploration not to give direct answers to them but let them explore and respond. It can be a small research as per the level of the kids.<br>Open discussion on global issues in the class and no one is right or wrong.<br>Community outreach programs can be arranged where the students can be in touch with the community and can understand the issues beyond the school boundaries and develop respect, empathy and compassion.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think the following strategies can be employed to inculcate international mindedness in students:<br>1. Organising Movie Fests.<br>Movies are a great way to exhibit the culture of any particular nation. We can always screen movies with subtitles. This way students will have a broader exposure.<br>2. A linguistic Fare<br>As the name suggests, students can be given a few lines to memorize in different languages. The children can dress up and sell items (which would be flashcards with the item's name in that particular language.<br>This will be a colourful display and the students will be motivated to learn a language.<br>3. Promote Bilingualism<br>Its the passport to achieve international mindedness. You learn a language and you understand the culture of the country better.<br>4. My Blog <br>Students should be motivated to write letters to their friends. Well, in today's day and time , introducing the concept of writing blogs would be a great help to them in exchange of ideas and thoughts.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>To&nbsp;embed International Mindedness in the classroom, its important to collaborate with all the stake holders. The following strategies might help learners to develop International Mindedness<br>&nbsp;# Story Telling Session- Participation by learners along with their parents / grand parents which will help them learn the core values. With these story sessions, children of diverse mindedness may also learn to listen, communicate and express freely.<br># Festival Celebrations- Participation of learners in all festivals conducted in school will make them understand various traditions, customs and cultural beliefs. This will help them develop respect for each other's culture, religion and customs.<br># Cuisine Fest- Organizing cuisine fest will help learners of varied background to know more about different cuisines and culture.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Exposing them to age appropriate world cinema/shows would lead them to identify with people from different cultures.<br>&nbsp;Then we can have some related activities:<br>*Brainstorming session after the show. - How the story could have a different ending? - What would you do if you were in that place instead?<br>*Each one of them can choose a character and come dressed like her/him one particular day.<br>We can also have a story/poem recitation taken&nbsp; from various cultures and invite reflections.<br>* No, when i plan this it will not be for selected few, So all co teachers in the class gropup will collaborate along with the coordinator and headmistress ma'am.<br>* It will be a long term strategy because this is one of the learner profiles we are aiming for. This is not a one-time activity. It will lead to various other activities across disciplines where kids will be exposed to international works/researches.<br>* will invite responses/ have discussions on various international happenings to check if its working.<br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>To promote international mindedness in my classroom, I would like to implement few intercultural activities like virtual theatre, virtual debate on the global issues, where students of different countries would participate by sharing their thoughts. This would help them to see and listen to the issues of others and they will be able to brainstorm together. This shall be followed by virtual gallery walk of posters made by different schools of different countries. The closing ceremony may&nbsp; include a session with larger group to discuss reflection on what they have learnt from this activity and one thing that they would like to know more about that issue. This will give a deep insight about the issues happening in and around the world. This activity will promote the voice and choice of each learner, where they will reach out (with others ) and reach in ( to understand ourselves in relation to others ).&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>Other activities like circle time, assembly, annual function , exhibitions, community outreach programme with themes will deepen the understanding of international mindedness.&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>&nbsp;Developing international mindedness is a journey which cannot happen without the support of peers, professionals and all the stake holders.&nbsp;<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Short term activities –&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>Stories/speaking skill - Story narration with children from around the world invites discussion and celebration of our similarities and differences, they encourage empathy towards others and spark curiosity about the world around us.<br><br></div><div>Celebrations - Celebrations of different cultures in the classroom and looking at similarities and differences of different culture help children share their experiences.</div><div>Music - Music helps children share songs from their own culture and talk about the occasions when these songs are sung.&nbsp;</div><div>Long term activities- Incorporate student’s languages into the curriculum, learn how to say “good morning” and “hello” in other languages and greet each other every day in a different language, learn how to sing poems / songs in other languages and sing together, hang up a poster showing how to say hello/thank you in different languages.<br><br></div><div>Student of the week - &nbsp; Randomly pick a student every week to become the star student for a whole week. This is a very interesting activity and kids enjoy it a lot. Do different activities every day. For instance, on the first day ask the student to bring pictures of him/her and the whole family and introduce him/herself to other kids. Put the pictures on the wall, and keep them for the whole week. The star student wears a crown and talks about his/her favorite things (color, book, animal, food etc.).<br><br></div><div>All these activities will help in learning about varied culture and traditions around the world and will enable the learners to think globally.<br><br><br></div>]]></description>
