Activity Points
Have you ever spoken to a classroom of students from another country?
Got one on one time with senior leaders from the US Department of State?
Or even simply heard the NY Times Editor speak about illegal immigration into the US heartland?
All things I have been able to do, and hear and learn through this program. A program which encourages students to venture outside their preconceived notions of the world.
I have learned from people from all walks of life. Gotten the chance to use their knowledge to enhance my own, and with it learn more about the world I live in.
During a Ted Talk the speaker Drew Dudley says "...there is no world, there's only 6 billion understandings of it, and if you change one persons understanding of it, one persons understanding of what their capable of, one persons understanding of how much people care about them, one persons understanding of how powerful an agent for change they can be in this world, you change the whole thing..."
I believe that this is the true power of these activities. we are put in front of people who can help us change our understanding of the whole world. Through these activities we can change the whole thing.
