Nurturing Global Competence in the Early Years
Seeking to understand the teaching and learning demands associated with setting the foundations for global competence development among children ages 3-5.
This project brings together a group of early childhood teachers in the US and Japan to conduct joint classroom explorations to nurture global competence among children ages 3-5. We seek to understand the teaching and learning demands associated with setting the foundations for global competence development among this age group including children’s representations of the world, their capacity for perspective taking, communication through multiple symbol systems, and altruism.
