Meaning:
The World Citizen is about the interconnectivity that we as a global populace share. We live in a world where everything is happening at once and everything is happening to everybody. Gone are the days of global distance and time constraints of global communication; everything happening in the world affects each individual, sooner or later. Being a World Citizen is a quest for global harmony and awareness, for a worldwide understanding, to break through the labels and ignorance that plague our nation. In order to become a World Citizen there must be a process of teaching, learning and experience, and through this process we as a people will have gained a better knowledge of the cultural contexts that we live in, making the world as a whole a better place.
Differentiation:
World Citizen delivers culture awareness to the new generation of Americans. WC educates high school students to become more aware of the world we live in, through curricular studies on economic, geographical, social and political issues throughout the world. The first of its kind, WC informs all of Americas young adults, through a national program instilled in high schools, with a goal to create a well-informed citizen that is aware of the world away from their home and has a knowledge of the social, political and cultural issues of the world. With the coming generations more attentive to the world around them, as a nation America can become a worldwide model of awareness and understanding.

Everything sounds good to me! Sounds like a real TV or website ad.
ReplyDeleteThe Meaning is is great, i think you left out one thing though: responsibility, which must be present in order for all of the teaching and learning to occur and have an impact on society. I like the " first of its kind" bit in the differentiation portion of your comment.
ReplyDeleteThey do sound great and I think you will only have to do a little tweaking to make them fit our new ideas
