Using The New York Times to Encourage Your Students to
Think Globally
Walter Barleycorn, Educational Manager, The New York
Times
This faculty workshop will provide teaching strategies to integrate
The New York Times into your courses. The objective is to foster
students’ global awareness, promote critical thinking, engage
students in active learning, and help to create a more in-formed,
responsible citizenry.
As a vibrant daily record of history in the making, The Times can
ignite student interest by linking learning to living. Enrich your
course with The New York Times, the nation’s most honored
newspaper, and support the University’s effort to create a culture
of reading.
The workshop will be led by Walter Barleycorn, Education Manager
for The New York Times. In addition to sharing instructional
strategies, he will demonstrate The New York Times' on-line
teaching and research resources.
This workshop will also outline resources available to faculty. A
complimentary subscrip-tion can be provided to faculty who have 10
or more students and incorporate The Times into their
syllabi.
Arrangements have been made for a conference call between the
Queens and Staten Island Campuses.
