‘What’s worth teaching?’ is a question that confronts everyone in education, both individual teachers and the field as a whole.

     Today’s young people need to interact competently with a range of people and cultures, even if they never leave their hometowns. We want them to have a wide view of the world and be ready to contribute to global progress. So, while the field of education moves towards a more competence-based approach, teachers are asked to foster global and intercultural skills more relevant to our changing world. This won’t happen consistently without the tools & materials needed to put the theory into practice. 

​

At Worth Teaching we're helping work toward this by designing resources in the areas of intercultural communication, global competence and global citizenship education.

​

Our Guiding question is:

What competencies do students need in order to collaborate across cultures to solve world problems?

We're focused on applying the theory about what's worth teaching,

to make concrete, easy-to-use resources available for classrooms: both

- for distinct, short courses related to Global Citizenship,

- and to integrate a global lens into traditional subject areas.
