This book enriches the discourse around Global Citizenship
Education in teacher education through the example of a teacher's
experience in a Canada-China Sister School reciprocal learning
landscape. Instead of positioning global citizenship teaching and
learning as a set of fixed goals to be attained by teachers alone,
this book approaches global citizenship teaching and learning as
unfinished lifework in progress and as situated curriculum problems
to be inquired together by university researchers, school teachers,
and students under the spirit of reciprocity and community. This
reimagination of narratives, theory, and action start from
collaborative and reciprocal learning partnerships among Chinese
and Canadian researchers and teachers in the practicality of
re-searching and re-enacting the purpose and meanings of
twenty-first century education in a Canada-China Sister School
setting.

On May 19, 1942, during WWII, a U-boat in the Gulf of Mexico
stalked its prey fifty miles from New Orleans. The submarine set
its sights on the freighter Heredia. Most onboard were merchant
seamen, but there were also civilians, including the Downs family:
Ray and Ina and their two children. Fast asleep in their berths,
the Downs family had no idea that two torpedoes were heading their
way. When the ship exploded, chaos ensued - and each family member
had to find their own path to survival. This inspiring historical
narrative tells the story of the Downs family as they struggle
against sharks, hypothermia, drowning, and dehydration in their
effort to survive the aftermath of this deadly attack off the
American coast. For fans of Refugee and Unbroken.
