Internationalizing Michigan Education conference, April 18, 2008   Preparing Our Students for a Place in the World: Internationalizing Michigan Education  All the economic, political and social trends point to the need for Michigan's students to be ready as never before to understand and engage in the wider world in which we live.  The second annual Internationalizing Michigan Education conference is scheduled for April 18, 2008 at the Kellogg Hotel and Conference Center on the campus of MSU. This conference will help participants situate Michigan in the international context, with special emphasis on areas and cultures - mainland Asia, the Indian sub-continent, sub-Saharan Africa and South America - that are likely to provide the greatest opportunities and challenges over the next 50 years.  Interactive breakout sessions will include resources to help educators establish international perspectives in their own settings and participants will leave with a "toolkit" to use at the district and school levels.
