Normally the first thing you do in class is introduce yourself. Since we're dealing with the issue of stereotypes, we let the students give us their impressions of us. I think it was a great exercise, but I think it we could have had a greater discussion to emphasize WHY we did it.
To start off the work on our final project we had them brainstorm a bit, then give us a note with what artistic style they feel strongest with and project type they'd be interested in working on. We'll use this to match them into groups (although we gave them the option to work alone if they want).
Glocal is the mixture of globalizing influences mixed with local traditions and globalized local flavor (Ritzer 2015). I am a geographer working on social issues, and I am always thinking about impact and scale. I'll be a facilitator in July 2017 for the GALACTIC GLOBAL INFUSION @ BALFOUR PRE-COLLEGE ACADEMY at Indiana University Bloomington.
