Indonesian Cultural Exchange
Youth today are looking for opportunities to connect with and participate in the wider world. The enormous popularity of social media and networking websites demonstrates that young people are not only consuming content but also sharing their opinions, ideas, and actions with the world. This exchange often already occurs beyond the traditional boundaries of the school day, but it presents a clear opportunity for global educators. Digital storytelling can help teachers tap into the power of technology as well as the power of youth voice to engage students in learning about global issues.
