Abstract
As students in K-12 schools become increasingly diverse, there is a need for teachers who are globally competent, understand other cultures and educational systems, and can use innovative teaching approaches that develop critical thinking, problem solving, and digital literacy in their students (Partnership for 21st Century Skills, 2009). Online technologies make it possible for teachers to integrate authentic global content and help students learn through interactions with those in other countries.
