The first of the three chapters of this document on teaching global education to elementary and secondary school students begins with a literature review of perspectives on global studies and continues with a comparison of definitions, assumptions, goals, and objectives for global education programs. The obstacles to teaching this global perspective outlined in chapter 2 are: (1) the traditional versus the futurist viewpoints toward education; (2) the lack of teacher training; and (3) the complexity of teaching about global awareness. Chapter 3 contains a review of California's Potter Valley High School's World Assembly. Following this chapter is a curriculum model for the World Assembly as it has been established at Potter Valley High School. The model includes an overview, activities, time schedule, resource materials, study guide, a world peace dialogue, points for discussion, and an evaluation form. The appendices contain goals for a cultural education program and a paper, "The School of Global Education, Livonia Public Schools, Livonia, Michigan" (J. Swift). A 14-item reference list is included. (DJC)
