Global Presenters
A collaborative effort between the Center for Diversity Education and the WNC Association of Returned Peace Corps Volunteers, this free program provides global presenters to K-16 classrooms in Western North Carolina. Global Presenters have been trained to apply effective and age-appropriate presentation skills to engage and inspire their learners.
Participating teachers will choose from a roster and invite Returning Peace Corps Volunteer’s to the classroom to present a unique perspective on curriculum-specific content. They will integrate Global Presenters into their course of study by facilitating pre- and post-visitor lessons that maximize outcomes and learning objectives. Teachers will be provided a 2-hour training with materials to best utilize the resources in this program.
Global Presenters are volunteers and can be invited for the following:
- Cultural presentations
- Global citizen talks
- Participation in Career Fairs and International Days
- Make connections to 21st century themes: global awareness, world languages, cross-cultural communication, collaboration, service learning, civic literacy, environmental literacy, public health, entrepreneurship
- Make connections to other countries, classrooms, development projects, and service learning
The Center for Diversity Education does not act as a liaison between educators and classroom teachers.
