Title: What makes a global citizen?
Course: Humboldt-Leuphana-Copy > Section: 1. What makes a global citizen?

You may have heard the phrase before – maybe in a textbook or in an advertisement – or maybe you haven't used it before, but have some associations with it. This task cycle will focus on global citizenship in more detail. Complete the following three steps:

1. Take the survey "How do you define a global citizen?" It consists of three open questions. After completing it, your and your course mates' answers will be displayed anonymously.
2. Study the different responses and look for similarities and differences or recurring categories in the answers. Can you come up with a common definition? Discuss in the forum "Defining global citizenship" – you will find some guiding questions there.
3. Compare your definition to some of the published definitions in the additional resources. How are they different or similar to your proposal? Would you like to update or extend your initial definition? If so, go back to the forum.
4. Read April Rinne's "What Global Citizenship Is Not". Work with a partner to write a blogpost discussing whether a well-known celebrity or politician of your choice  can be called a global citizen. OR prepare a formal debate with your classmates on wether a well-known celebrity or politician of your choice can be called a global citizen. Therefore, divide into two groups. One group prepares pro-arguments, while the other one prepares contra-arguments. You can take notes to take into the discussion. Finally, appoint a moderator, who leads your discussion.
