| High school students representing 17 different countries
negotiate at
a Global Forum. They "met" on-line on a daily basis for
six weeks
prior to the Forum. |
CISP sites are expected to be an integral part of the academic and educational
mission and fabric of their own sponsoring institutions. A central goal
of site leadership is facilitation of a rich exchange and an on-going
professional dialogue between world affairs and pedagogical specialists
in universities or other educational or community organizations and educators
in schools and districts. This goal seeks a subtle interplay between educators
with a deep knowledge of schools, curriculum, and staff development and
academic specialists from sponsoring institutions or other organizations
in the community. Consequently, CISP site leaders devote significant attention
to securing the involvement of international and pedagogical specialists;
strengthening the site's facilities, finances and support systems; relating
to complementary programs; and generally developing intra- and inter-
institutional relationships and connections that add to the site's stability.
