For example while watching CoSN17 we heard about JAAGO Foundation . Their model can either be used in collaboration with them or others can copy and do the same. What works best is when instead of starting over from scratch we should rather collaborate with proved model partners. Like JAAGO's online schools can be used to educated kids in areas where education is needed such as Dominican Republic and Africa .

Collaboration is the Key

It would be necessary, though, to be "trained" in which competency list to use/which framework to follow.
  
It may be possible to incorporate global competencies across all the strands of our work since we encounter various school stakeholders in varying degrees. Students could learn more via our seminar classes and/or other school programs. Teachers + local school admin could know more via PD session, post-secondary leadership team meetings or other information sessions (and could then, disseminate to  students via social science classes/initiatives and to parents). 

We could also boost awareness via social media posts - making connections between our work around social emotional development, global competencies and technology

+ Run for office (school board)  with global literacy as a major platform.

+ Promote the "I" in ISTE by building global competencies among our members and by engaging its affiliates outside the US in doing so. ISTE Standards (formally NETS, renamed to eliminate a US-centric name) calls for global competency for Students, Teachers & Administrators. Perhaps a global meet-up (in partnership with SAS, perhaps.) Use the ISTE conference as an actual meet-up with a focused set of activities to connect educators from around the globe. Follow up with online meet-ups and other social media/PLC.

+ ISTE might set & support up global exchanges among groups of schools. (Perhaps in partnership with UNESCO, IRON, etc.

+ Look at UNESCO 17 Global Goals for Sustainable Development and choose one for ISTE to partner on to focus/deepen/broaden the impact]]> 2017-04-03 19:25:18 UTC https://padlet.com/elemenous/campfire2/wish/164459215 jimknight153 https://padlet.com/elemenous/campfire2/wish/164459218 - Inter-ethnic conversations within our own communities, to celebrate our own indigenous diversity.
- Link learners using basic video conferencing technology with a learning/problem based motivation.
- Use oral family history and resources like ancestry.com to celebrate our own personal global heritage.
- be conscious of the current high levels of distrust, introduce new things carefully, boldly but with communication that listens, especially to parents 
- think beyond the walls of the school to embrace the whole community
- use of VR to build empathy with otherwise inconceivable experiences e.g. Google cardboard resources available on https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=%23GoogleExpeditions
- empower young people to be part of tackling big problems, community action counts and your community can be global

Bridge our classrooms to other classrooms around the world. Educate parents in the community about the importance. Help stakeholders experience why it is important. Create a reality tv show with a whole school on exchange. Like communities could do this.

Working with local Development Aid (education) organisations to reimagine the curriculum content with global focus/focus on development education 

Student exchange part of the culture

International weeks in schools 

Ted Ed (X)  Club: Use their presentation framework; different clubs connect across the world 

Young Social Innovators 

Let students share with their voices; tell their stories; their stories can have a larger impact; their stories can inspire!; have a global voice; used Ted Ed Club network to promote this out

Big takeaway - embed global competencies in the content areas at each grade levels and provide resources necessary to successfully integrate at each level OR do you create a K-12 scope and sequence standalone that teachers can choose from?
