We Are All Connected

Global Minds United is bringing students together to participate in a Summer Summit.

Learn from Me… Active Listening

  • Sharing who we are creates narratives about ourselves and that helps create our identities
  • Developing who we are and who people think we are
  • Learning how to interact with others impacts how they develop their own identities
  • Expressing who we are and actively listening to learn who they are
  • Storytelling includes benefits for the speaker and the listener
  • Practicing vulnerability

  • Defining terms like D & I, DE & I, and GD & I

Learn from me… ThinkAct

  • Learning tools to be a change agent in your home and community
  • Teaching the concept of Feel. Think. Act

Feel – What are your passions?

Think – What do I know about this topic?

Act – Will I join a group/organization or will l be a leader? Utilizing support from GMU

Learn from me… Inclusion & Belonging

  • Teaching inclusion so students individually are taught how to be inclusive of others
  • Listening to different points of view and experiences of others
  • Creating an inclusive culture in your school
  • Cultivating a sense of belonging when your school is inclusive
  • Inclusive cultures in school foster a sense of belonging (regardless of gender, race, religion, politics, soci-economic status, etc…)
  • Empowering students to be inclusive as individuals who are accepting of other people regardless of who they are

Learn from me… Identity
