This course has been our Online Learning Lab for years and it has been a great opportunity to introduce innovative learning initiatives. Welcome aboard.
Today many countries celebrate Wise Men Day. We want to use this day to remind you about the Three Rs of the Environment: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. We want to use emerging technologies and systems to take care of our environment. You can make your own impact by using these rules at home. Let’s take care of our planet with the systems and concepts that we will learn during this course.
Gota Fría Storms in Comunitat Valenciana created flooding due to heavy rains. High winds and bad weather created high waves in beaches of Port Sagunto near Valencia. Kite Surfers in a beach with red flag were flying over the waves. What are the risks associated with this practice? How #CityManagement should rule these practices? How #EmergencyManagement teams should #BePreparedForEmergencies ? #SafetyFirst is one key #OutdoorsLearning objectives.

Summer term is winding down and it is time to extract the lessons we are going to carry to next term. Change Management continued as one of our main topics. We have to plan for changes based on our priorities, values, and beliefs. We have to be ready for unexpected changes that can impact our personal and professional life. Our actions, talks, and thoughts should be an example to others in our circles of influence. We live in one globe that we have to protect. We should embrace sustainability actions to build a better world. The UN Sustainable Development Goals are a good set of global goals to add our contribution and make it happen. The more we travel, the more we learn about others. Share your learning experiences and influence others to know more our planet.
During Summer 2019 more than 40,000 Scouts from more than 150 countries attended the 24th World Scout Jamboree in the USA. Former UN Secretary General and Scouter from Korea Ban Ki-moon challenged Scouts to be Global citizens, be champions of the Sustainable Development Goals, and be agents of climate change. We want to combine his recommendations with our lessons in our courses. We continue enhancing our formal and non-formal educational methods to improve higher education management programs. Our digital leaders of the future are already leading their youth groups in their countries. Be prepared.
Presentation 2 – How to Connect Global Higher Education Courses with the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals. Dr. Jose Lepervanche, Professor of Supervision and Management AFPD 3135 | Course Num. 7152 | Room 2012 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a collection of 17 global goals set by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015. Specific SDGs have been incorporated to courses in global management to research how governments, companies, non-profits, communities and people have been connecting them to their vision, plans, goals and activities. These SDGs have been used in assignments, online discussions, projects and class roundtables, TED, TEDx talks, TED Ed Lessons and TEDxFSCJ Learning Adventures to complement learning.
