Community College Master Teacher Institute 2022
Globalization at a Crossroads:
Integration and Fragmentation in the Global System

Apply by June 17 
for the workshop on July 21-22, 2022.

The 2022 CCMTI curriculum development workshop, to be held in-person on the University of Washington campus in Seattle on July 21-22, 2022, will focus on changes and challenges to the process of globalization, and how educators can incorporate these pressing issues into their classrooms. At the turn of the millennium, the world seemed to be moving towards ever closer economic integration matched by the seemingly ineluctable spread of liberal democracy. Less than twenty years later, many of the nations that had championed the benefits of global economic integration are experiencing domestic populist backlashes against globalization. Meanwhile, China and Russia have increasingly sought to use their power to challenge the liberal order, while rising powers like India and Indonesia create new centers of influence in the global system. Do these developments presage the erosion of globalization or perhaps a reset on new terms? Is the global system heading towards greater fragmentation, or will the need to meet global challenges like climate change and migration drive further cooperation and integration? The 2022 CCMTI will feature a range of academic and practitioner experts examining these topics from a range of disciplinary and regional perspectives. Participants will learn and share strategies for how to incorporate these timely topics into existing curricula, plus develop new classroom activities. The CCMTI is open to community college instructors who teach courses related to global and regional studies. Space in the event is limited, and so prospective participants must submit an application for consideration. Instructors accepted to participate in the CCMTI will receive a small honorarium. Attendees from outside the Seattle metro area are eligible for a travel subsidy that will support their stay in UW single-room housing for the days of the event. Learn more about CCMTI here. PLEASE APPLY BY JUNE 17.
