What is a Goals Project Team?
In early January, you will receive an email that shares your assigned classroom Global Goal. Classrooms will be teamed with similarly aged students and will work for six weeks through guided inquiry and exploration. All learning experiences are designed to for flexibility for online, face-to-face, and hybrid learning environments.
After we receive our assigned class Global Goal, what should we do next?
You will receive a Goals Project Kit with information to share with your class on the Sustainable Development Goals.
At the start of the project on January 25th, you can reveal your assigned Class Global Goal (each classroom will be assigned to one of the Global Goals with all 17 represented by classrooms across the world).
Your class will create a small project sharing about your goal and about your class
(approximately 1 hour/week).

What if I have never participated in a global project or if the Global Goals are new for me?
The Goals Project is designed to be a fit for classrooms new or experienced in global collaboration and with the Global Goals.
How long should the project take?
- approximately 2 hours of preparation
- approximately 1 hour of instructional time/week for the project
- extension activities will be offered for each week
Is there a way to be involved if I am not currently working directly with students? (e.g. administrators, coaches, etc)
Each team will be led by a Team Facilitator. We would love for you to consider signing up to lead a team. Facilitators will be assigned 1 Global Goal and a group of classrooms. Our project facilitators are the go-to experts in case of questions and act as cheerleaders to encourage classrooms along the way.
Facilitators will volunteer approximately 1 hour/week for the months of January, February, and March.
NOTE: All positions for 2021 facilitators are now full. Please feel free to add your name to the list though for future projects.
