Students from Propel Montour had the opportunity to see the world this summer, thought the eyes of their art teacher, Robyn Doyle. This wonderful virtual field trip was a project of Ms. Doyle’s and “Teachers For Global Classrooms.” During June, 2015, Ms. Doyle visited India — and showed her students (via Instagram) all of the amazing sights, sounds and experiences that were an integral part of this adventure.
This was a working adventure for Ms. Doyle, as she learned new things to bring home to her Propel students. Her self-defined primary objective for participating in the Teachers for Global Classroom program was “to expand knowledge of global education so as to expand personal knowledge and growth, to better prepare her students for the future and make a positive impact on her school community.”
“Teachers For Global Classrooms” allowed Ms. Doyle to become truly immersed in the school culture in India. Opportunities for learning included:
- Observing classes
- Co-teaching a lesson
- Roundtable meetings with teachers and/or school administrators
- Cultural presentations, on the U.S. or India
- Participating in students’ extra-curricular activities
- Visiting nearby cultural/ historical sites
In Ms. Doyle’s blog, she answered questions submitted by her Propel students and even challenged them with questions of her own. To read more about this adventure, please see the blog at:
