Another project that we did in Social Studies was the Globalization Project. The Globalization Project was where we would study about a certain country and research about how globalization effected it. My group studied Bangladesh. We learned that they had many environmental issues such as pollution and deforestation, and economic issues such as wages and working conditions. We also negotiated with other "countries" to find a way to solve each others problems. This project fits under the Global Thinking part of the Westport 2025 Lens, because we research on the different issues going around the world and we look at different perspectives. As I mentioned earlier, we looked at environmental and economic issues of different countries around the world. We worked with meaningful problems and tried to find ways to fix them. We also used the knowledge we knew and learned to find solutions. This project had us look at global issues and perspectives, work with meaningful problems, and use everything we knew.
