Can we connect the rural college classrooms of Virginia, Siberia,
and Baden-Wrttemberg? Have the efforts to link students with the
international academic centers been fruitful? By providing the
definition of Global Learning Environment (GLE), this book makes
the vision of global education a reality for faculty and students
of different disciplines and cultures. As a concept and an
educational model, a GLE shows how to connect students with the
international network of faculty focused on meeting the challenges
of globalization and sustainability. Five unique characteristics
and four global features of a GLE are described and analyzed
thoroughly within the framework of constructivism and deep
learning. The sincere hope for the proposed model is to positively
affect international values and praxes by establishing educational
quality and giving the voice to those who dream about truthful
education, genuine virtues, and real change. The book opens a
dialogue regarding how a GLE can initiate meaningful changes in
educational systems. The results of this work provide an avenue for
teachers, students, and leaders to grow together and transform the
world
