Global Network Education

Global Network Education

An unlimited internet connection around the world and sophisticated technology enable people in a different country to communicate each other. This brings advantages for everyone but also give bad impacts as well. That is why everyone must use the technology wise so that they can get much beneficial from it. Related to education, the technological developments will facilitate the student with many helps for their study. For example, Peer-to-Peer video conferencing that creates the opportunity for students to build an international network of friends and contacts. A contact network can help students to develop business leads, find new job opportunities, and increase their knowledge of other countries and cultures. A global contact network built from having personal conversations with other students around the world will provide lasting benefits throughout the student’s career. Through the use of Peer-to-Peer video conferencing, students can also study new languages and to learn about cultural differences while building a global support network.

The unlimited network connection brings the world to enter the Global Network Education. Global Network Education is any classroom activities which expose young children to new ways of thinking about the world, their own and others’ cultures, world languages, communities, and families through cross-country network connection. By creating the Global Education Network, early childhood teachers have the ability to expose children to concepts of diversity, multiculturalism, and multilingualism at an early age. This type of early exposure can make issues of equity and equality, as well as global understanding, accessible and relevant to children and hopefully less of a struggle to understand and practice as they grow into adults.
