Millbrook High teacher Lindy Poling has an article on "Developing Citizens of the World" in the winter edition of Global Teachnet, a publication of the National Peace Corps Association in cooperation with the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development. Poling's article describes the "Community-in the-Classroom" approach she uses with more than 60 community members from all over the country and the world help her to "team teach" the Lessons of Vietnam/Recent International Relations elective each semester. She describes the impact of having guest speakers visit her class and pairing students up with adults as pen pals who have experienced the events students are studying.
