Global Citizenship 3
Global Citizenship III Grade 11 1 Credit
This course is the culmination of the Global Citizenship journey, in which students complete their graduation project. After selecting a global issue that connects to their individual ECHS pathway, students exercise their skills in creative questioning, research, and design thinking to deepen their understanding of this issue and to design a project or product that addresses the issue on a local scale. They learn fundamental college-level research skills such as presenting a research proposal, compiling an annotated bibliography, writing a research-based paper, interacting with community experts, and engaging in metacognitive reflection. The project culminates in a presentation of learning to an authentic audience of teachers, district leaders, community members and family, in which they display the Global Citizenship skills and dispositions they have gained throughout their time in ECHS.
