Content Description
-
The content, resources and assignments in this document can be used to strengthen critical thinking and creative thinking skills. Some of the content, resources and assignments can also be used to strengthen cultural competence. In addition to a wide variety of resources, the document includes original content, assignments and “thought journal” prompts that can be used individually, or they can be combined to build on each other. To avoid confusion, I’ve noted sources before and after long external content.

This project is designed for students in English for Academic Purposes at the community college level. The project supports development of research, reading,oral presentation skills, and vocabulary acquisition. Students will investigate an issue related to globalization from the website www.globalization101.org. They will choose a region and focus area to investigate further and describe the positive and negative effects of globalization on that region and the world. Students will develop a greater understanding of the interconnectedness of the world. The project also introduces basic online research skills and gives students tools to evaluate reliable sources for academic work.

Content Description
-
Minneapolis College, the most selected higher education destination of students from all Minneapolis Public High Schools, is located downtown, nestled between the hustle of Hennepin Avenue and the green spaces of Loring Park. As a part of the Minnesota State system of colleges and universities, Minneapolis College most serves those students who are least likely to go to college. With three-quarters of the student body composed of those underrepresented in higher education, the hallways are filled with recent immigrants, those seeking to learn English, members of communities with the highest unemployment and incarceration rates in the state, veterans, those of low socioeconomic status, seekers of diversity, and those who wish to serve them. Collected here are their stories, stories of overcoming, coming up, perseverance, pride, and power in the face of depressed opportunity and systemic oppression.
