PowerUp Game Story If any one out there is listening, Planet Helios is being destroyed and we need your help!

They joined together to develop and build technologies to create electricity from available renewable energy resources like wind, sun and water power. Meanwhile the planet's citizens–our ancestors– pulled together and pledged to use less energy. This ushered in a Golden Age of energy balance and ecological harmony. But a few generations later energy was plentiful, clean and cheap and conservation was no longer in fashion.

The heart of global education is enabling young people to participate in shaping a better, shared future for the world. Global education emphasises the unity and interdependence of human society, developing a sense of self and appreciation of cultural diversity, affirmation of social justice and human rights, as well as building peace and actions for a sustainable future in different times and places. Global education promotes positive values and assists students to take responsibility for their actions and to see themselves as global citizens who can contribute to a more peaceful, just and sustainable world. Australian global educators place particular emphasis on developing relationships with our neighbours in the Asia–Pacific and Indian Ocean regions. Global Perspectives, A framework for global education in Australian schools is a concise, practical and philosophical guide to including a global perspective across the curriculum.

Cell Phones in Class 10 Sep The Cell Phone Solution There was a discussion this summer on the AP Literature Facebook group about student attention in class, cell phone distraction, and the difficulty teachers were facing in getting their students to read for sustained periods of time. I’ll admit, it is a problem that has troubled me as well. My students have become sneakier and more blatant with their cell phones.
