Abstract

Global education for cultivating global citizens is an essential educational topic for communities today. However, the standardized public curriculum has limited opportunities to cultivate K12 students to become global citizens. Currently, a MOOC outreach initiative has been launched in Hong Kong, facilitating students to access MOOCs from world-renowned universities. Students’ learning is assessed by online assignments in MOOCs, and accompanied by feedback from other MOOC learners. Through learning MOOCs, students can gain global learning experiences based on their interests, and develop global competencies. In this work-in-progress paper, we will discuss how the initiative has been implemented, how the initiative has influenced students and how the initiative can influence K12 education and United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (UN SDG) Education.
