I came across this video and thought it is an appropriate and accessible expression of what I have been learning and reflecting on in regards to best practices in my classroom. I believe that there is an important biblical narrative that acts as an umbrella over all of my teaching, and what I love about recent shifts in world language education is that they fit beautifully into the larger and more important biblical narrative of our lives. So as you watch the video, think about the fact that at the heart of our need to become global citizens lies an understanding that "the earth is the Lord's and everything in it", therefore my understanding of, sensitivity to and compassion for all peoples in every culture matters a great deal.
