Hey, it’s June 2nd. Am I or am I not a global citizen? The suspense is killing me.

Well, as we say in Chinese, “???”.

I’d like to hear how the results compare with the answers you get from your students, too.

Most of the responses so far are from Americans (although many of them live outside the USA); I hope we will be able to get more international responses as well to compare.

Can’t wait to find out what responses you get. I love asking my students this question.

Well, that’s the main thing I’m trying to find out actually. I’m also interested to know if it has different meanings in different parts of the world. Hopefully we’ll get some good responses and find out…

I’m going to be posting more on this topic in the next few weeks and I hope we can work towards a more common understanding. It will be good to know your thoughts.

I was wondering if people had a common understanding of what the *minimum* requirement to be called a ‘global citizen’ was?

The edges of the definition are likely gray areas…
