To Make a Better World: IREX Then & Now

in

Forty-three years ago today, IREX was created to help advance exchanges, not just of people, but of ideas. As we celebrate IREX’s founding, we honor its original charge by continuing to bring people together, to link institutions both within and across countries and regions, and to host events where the latest thinking and research is shared with the world.

Global Education is Not a Fad

in

Global education is not just a study abroad program or after-school courses for talented students or a Model UN club or a language class. It is a curriculum that incorporates global themes into the fabric of daily teaching and learning, in every subject and at every grade level, pre-K through 12.

Trends in education, or education fads, come and go with each school year: block schedules, the small schools movement, character education, et cetera. Some trends are hot for a few years and then fizzle; others become an authentic and essential component of everyday teaching and learning.
