In this webinar, University of Minnesota faculty, staff, and student leaders discussed the cutting-edge of classroom efforts to prepare students to tackle the global challenges that lie ahead.

Panelists spoke both about current educational practices and the vision to make our classrooms supportive of global learning for all students.
