Description¶

The 360 Global Ed Model is an evolving education model for an international service-learning class that brings together a theoretical framework, educational environment, academic coursework, and evidence-based outcomes. The article states it "brings together a variety of educational concepts to form an educational approach for an international service-learning class that impacts students' knowledge, attitudes, and skills, through partnerships with an international community." It is offered in contrast to traditional silo-based, discipline-specific models and was developed in partnership with Peacework Inc. and the Belizean Ministry of Education.
