This is a very short video of the guest speaker from Saudi Arabia speaking with my Global Education I class. Ali spent an hour with my class discussing geography, education, cultural norms and differences. One of the most fascinating topics discussed was the tribes of Saudi Arabia and the relationship one has with their tribe. In this video, you will hear Ali explain just how strong the connection and responsibility is to one's tribe, no matter where you may be in the world.

Here's an example of an award winning weShare project that a child turned in for a regular tour with EF, the same company BHS tours with. BHS students traveling with me to the Global Student Leader Summit in March will be required to do the same only at a little higher level. Please view these and consider asking your traveling student to share their project with your class after they return. media type="custom" key="25247650" Here's a link to the project gallery for more examples if you are interested: []

2013 SAIS Annual Conference: The Global Future

This is a video clip from a Skype session I had with Dr. Najwa Jredini of the American University in Beirut. We discussed life for her, the Syrian civil war, Hezbollah and Islam. It was enlightening for my students and a joy for me to share her with my class.
