Introducing THINK Global School

I wanted to take a moment to introduce our school which will be opening up in September 2010. We are very much about opening a dialogue with anyone in education, especially global projects, global awareness, technology in education and new models of teaching & learning. We'd love to hear your thoughts / comments / feedback.

Follow us on Twitter (@tgsthinkglobal) or see if any of our team be in your area any time soon on Dopplr. We'd love to chat!

Here's a quick overview from our website:

"We are a high school that creates the opportunity for young men and women to study in three new international cities each academic year. We prepare students for success in university and, much more importantly, for success and fulfillment in life. We offer a strong academic program, the opportunity to learn about our world, meet new people, and explore new cultures.

Adopting the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme as well as U.S. curriculum and accreditation, TGS offers a challenging international education. Taught in English, our unique program will integrate students' diverse cultures and traditions with those of the host cities. TGS students and teachers will use laptops and mobile technology to connect with and impact people around the world in dynamic and profound ways. Our goal is to create true global citizens, bound together through shared experiences.

Balancing the best parts of learning in the classroom with learning through experience, our highly-qualified teachers act as guides of our students' growth and development. We will lead international charitable projects that will become life-changing journeys. We interact, explore, listen, learn, grow and, ultimately, every one of our students will develop the capacity and passion necessary to make a profound difference in the world."
