This course examines the future of global education by centering reciprocity, equity, and inclusion as foundational principles for designing and assessing high-impact, competency-based global learning experiences. Students will explore how emerging technologies—including AR/VR, AI, and data science—can enhance or hinder sustainable global learning ecosystems. Through a structured learning model of idea introduction, real-world visualization, and hands-on application, students will critically assess their own roles as both learners and educators in shaping inclusive, technology-driven global education.

Key themes include: the shared growth of all participants in the learning ecosystem, the intersection of sustainability and resource equity in educational technology, and the role of AI in fostering or disrupting access to meaningful learning opportunities.

Students will develop AI prompting skills to enhance instructional design, engage in applied practice with cutting-edge tools, and refine their ability to create globally relevant learning experiences. By the end of the course, students will be equipped to lead the field in designing technology-enabled programs that prioritize learning, development, and long-term impact.
