全球研究

的 霍勒斯克. Fralin Global Studies Program requires its participants to engage in global travel, 要求的课程, and group discussions on topics concerning global issues and policy. Once the requirements are met, the graduate will receive a separate certificate in addition to their North Cross diploma, recognizing them as a Global Studies Scholar.

学院设计的全球研究区分为学生提供新的机会，以扩大他们在9455澳门新葡萄娱乐场大厅的教育. 成为世界公民的理念——不仅仅是满足获得高级文凭或提高大学申请的要求——应该成为每个学生的目标. 尽管如此, 以一种明确学校期望的方式组织课程似乎很重要. Because the program emphasizes both academic scholarships and experiences, these two broad categories will each contain half of the qualifications for the diploma. 希望以全球研究学者的身份毕业的学生应在9455澳门新葡萄娱乐场大厅大学的第一年(不迟于大二结束)宣布他们的意图。. 那些不打算在9455澳门新葡萄娱乐场大厅大学学习四年的学生必须见主管修改课程. 寻求文凭的国际学生应与主任一起编写定制的学习课程. 

项目要求

1. 课程

Academic 课程 featuring core classes such as Introduction to Global Studies, AP世界历史, AP比较政府, AP人文地理, 环境研究, 世界语言课程 是否会为学生提供达到目标的最大分数，但选修课对于实现该计划的奖学金要素至关重要. 学生s must earn at least a B in each course that will count toward the diploma.

大多数全球研究学者从全球研究概论和世界语言开始他们为期四年的学习. 十年级的学生可以在学习第二语言的同时选修AP世界史. 十一年级的学生除了学习西班牙语的AP世界语言课程外，还可能学习AP文学, 法语或拉丁语. 高年级学生选修AP比较政府、环境研究和AP人文地理等选修课. 再一次, there are many paths to fulfilling the requirements, 所以请与全球研究主任预约，制定个性化的计划.

2. 校园活动

校内活动包括研讨会、嘉宾演讲和参加国际之夜.

• 每个月将举行研讨会，学生必须参加至少三次研讨会，并通过阅读和讨论该月的主题积极参与. 学生s must submit a reflection to the seminar leader prior to the group discussion.

对于每个活动，学者必须向全球研究主任提交一段反思.

3. 校外活动

学生必须每年至少参加三次校外活动，以更好地了解他们自己的罗阿诺克社区. 因为大, global communities have settled in Roanoke, students do not have to travel far to immerse themselves in what were once considered distant cultures; they can do so through getting to know the immigrants who have enriched southwest Virginia. Examples of off-campus activities include:

• attending lectures, performances, or cultural festivals

• attending the Harvard Model United Nations or Ivy League Model United Nations Conference

​每项活动都需要书面反思，并通过电子邮件发送给全球研究主任.

回到罗阿诺克后, 学生将被要求以在高年级早会上做报告的形式向他们的同龄人传授通过旅行所学到的文化课程. 除了, students will also compose a five-page essay about their experiences. 的 essay must be richly detailed in examining various cultural contrasts and comparisons. 理想情况下，这篇论文将是在大四的春天完成的一次高潮体验.

5. 暑期阅读

每年, 全球研究系的教员将评出一本供所有全球研究学者共同阅读的书. 的 book will help students focus on the theme that has been chosen for the year. At least one seminar will address the summer reading. 此外，学生可以选择由特定教师选择的其他全球研究读物. Examples of themes explored have been Cosmpolitanism, Water, War, and Women.

enduring North Cross tradition for over four decades. 学生 presentations take place during Morning Assembly before
the entire upper school and members of the broader North Cross community. This focused academic research, which may
include experiential field work and interaction with experts in the chosen topic, will be codified first in a research paper of at
至少十页. DeHart项目代表了高中课程的顶点，旨在展示
the cumulative education of a North Cross Senior. Successful completion is required for graduation.
