Description:
This videoconference is a joint project of Semester at Sea (SAS) and Global Nomads Group (GNG). From September – December 2009, SAS will embark on its historic 100th voyage. During this exciting shipboard expedition, GNG and SAS will collaborate to produce a series of documentaries as well live, open dialogue videoconferences between schools in the United States and schools and cultural sites around the world. Nations involved will include Spain, Morocco, Ghana, South Africa, India, Vietnam, Hong Kong and China. The aim of the program is for youth participants to broaden their understanding of an increasing “flat world” in the 21st century through live, cross-cultural conversations on the manifold issues that relate to immigration and globalization.
