Thinking Globally: Using The New York Times in the
Classroom
This faculty workshop will provide teaching strategies to integrate
The New York Times into your courses. The objective is to foster
students’ global awareness, promote critical thinking, engage
students in active learning, and help to create a more informed,
responsible citizenry.
As a vibrant daily record of history in the making, The Times can
ignite student interest by linking learning to living. Enrich
your course with The New York Times, the nation’s most honored
newspaper, and support the University’s effort to create a culture
of reading.
The workshop will be led by Tom Glieden, Education Manager for The New York
Times. In addition to sharing instructional
strategies, The New York Times' on-line teaching and research
resources will be demonstrated.
This workshop will also outline resources available to faculty. A
complimentary subscription can be provided to faculty who have 10
or more students and incorporate The Times into their
syllabi.
