Also just adding to the background information on the country. ]]> 2022-05-23 18:09:02 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196320117 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196320206 I wish schools would teach us more about countries where students are from, so that students may get the opportunity to learn about where their family came from and their heritage. I also feel like schools mostly teach about countries that are already known and recognized, so i think it would be good to learn about countries that not a lot of people know much about, to become more educated on parts of the world that aren't as popular.]]> 2022-05-23 18:09:06 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196320206 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196321028 I wish schools taught us about foreign politics and what the countries current biggest exports are and their past and present wars and there outcome/ effect they had on other countries and laws in said countries and also about global tension and who is most likely to go to war like how china currently wants to take Taiwan.]]> 2022-05-23 18:09:43 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196321028 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196321079 I wish schools taught about the culture and traditions of Africa rather than just it being about slavery every single year. Even though slavery is an important time in history to learn about, it shouldn’t be the only thing that comes to people’s mind when they think about Africa. We learn so much about other cultures but I don’t recall ever learning about African culture. ]]> 2022-05-23 18:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196321079 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196321375 Tbh all countries, maybe Somalia since that's where I'm from. I wish schools can teach us the positive things about Africa like the culture, governments, etc. instead of focusing on the past. While it's important to learn how each country was formed, I feel like that's the only thing they talk about in schools. So more about the civilization of today and culture would be better. Would give everyone a brighter insight on Africa. ]]> 2022-05-23 18:10:00 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196321375 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196322155 We wish we learned more about different countries and cultures from an international lens instead of just through a very americanized perspective, both their history and current events.]]> 2022-05-23 18:10:36 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196322155 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196323971 One country we wish we learned more about at school is Guatemala we feel like there is a big misconception about central America and that Mexico is the only country in central America. As a country we need to learn more about other countries cultures and ways of life so we as a community and a country can learn to be more diverse and less ignorant towards people who have different backgrounds than us. ]]> 2022-05-23 18:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196323971 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196447592 I wish that schools taught us about people around the world not whatever we learn in history books its the same things over and over. it would be nice to learn where people are from and what its like to live their lives and experence their cuture from their perspective.]]> 2022-05-23 19:59:12 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2196447592 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2197059630 I wished students were taught about their own heritage. Despite having the opportunity to learn about culture from our relatives, not everyone is able to have that connection to their roots. I think it would be beneficial and interesting to learn about our peers’ backgrounds as well. Listen an example for this, it could be interesting knowing if there was a moment in history where their relatives had to immigrant because of a huge event. I think learning about certain cultures that students identify with could help students understand one another better. ]]> 2022-05-24 05:20:08 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2197059630 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2198080009 I wish we learned more about the real struggles of what people go through in other countries and how people suffer and overcome it. And how the people that are up now started how did they come from the bottom to the top now.]]> 2022-05-24 17:33:22 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/gweyxsn52i5iokc7/wish/2198080009
