Toward Cultural Empathy: A Framework for Global Education.

Wood, Richard J.

Educational Record, v72 n4 p10-13 Fall 1991

Global higher education can no longer be viewed as secondary; it is essential for educating graduates to cope creatively with the modern world. Second languages are central to the global curriculum; study abroad is desirable. In addition, global education involves a broader way of thinking, not merely a certain content. (MSE)
