Global Edu-Preneur SummitMarch 6, 2015

Inaugural Event

John F. Kennedy University - Pleasant Hill, CA

Welcome!We live in a state that values our young people and embraces the concept of investing to ensure their success. One day that child may be the doctor who performs a lifesaving operation on a loved one, or the engineer who designs an automobile for the blind.

As the proverb says, “It takes a village to raise a child.” This Summit is to open the dialogue and begin the conversation on how our community can honor that covenant with our children.

Our community is comprised of educators, administrators, business leaders, workers, mentors and colleagues. We no longer live in silos, but in an interconnected, interdependent global society. We, and our children, must be able to understand, respect and communicate with, the amazing array of entities operating in our world today.

And we must expand our thinking to prepare the next generation for tomorrow’s global economy.

Thank you for being part of our inaugural Global Edu-Preneurs event, and for contributing to what I hope will become a blueprint for SUCCESS!

Let’s get to work.

Middle School : Changing School Technology Culture with Student LeadershipA Success Story from Valley View’s Mouse Squad students and their advisor, Mrs. Hawes.

Meet the students who provide tech support and instruction for teachers and peers at Valley View. With this service program, tech use has exploded on our campus. Teachers have more confidence in using technology with students, and the students have more options for accessing curriculum, collaborating, and demonstrating their learning because of this increased teacher support.

Jr/Sr High School: Business Plan CompetitionHigh School Business teachers, Gina Pixler and Terry Redkey join us from Quincy, CA to highlight their 3-course phases that culminate in a student competition at the site level with possibility for a monetary prize at the district or region finale, featuring video of students who completed the course this year followed by Q&A to help instructors implement in their classes.

Education that (Really!) Prepares Students for a Global EconomyDSN and CITD Director Leah Goold-Haws believes it is an exciting time to be in education and an even more exciting time to be involved in global education! She will share specifics on how the innovative programs on which she both leads and collaborates -- from the Global Edu-Preneur course modules with fresh ‘digital badging’ certification awards to the Virtual Internship pilot program with China – are helping educators better prepare our students for a dynamic, increasingly complicated global economy.

Gina has taught CTE business courses at Chester Jr Sr High School for the last ten years. Her prior careers included banking, insurance, marketing and advertising, real estate sales and mortgage lending. The latter opened doors to education through hosting first time buyer seminars that were not reaching young adults early enough to avoid financial pitfalls and heart ache. Through her PTA efforts to create a finance course at CHS, the entire district embraced the idea of educating students to be financially successful and made it the first CTE graduation requirement. Entrepreneurship at Plumas Unified School District is a quarter-long section inside their Business and Finance Course that has been taught for seven years now.
