The program allows the international w88 slot to learn different teaching approaches, use technology in the classroom and better understand the education system in the United States, while at the same time, share their own culture and expertise with a wide array of people from northern Nevada and each other.

"We all understand that our world has become global and complex," Mahon said. "It is one thing to visit with people from other countries through social media, but it is an entirely different and deeper experience to have them in our communities, on our campus, and in our classrooms. Anyone who comes into contact with this group will tell you how much they've learned about different countries and cultures. Conversely, when you ask the fellows to tell you what they are taking home, their new understanding for Americans living everyday lives is changed through this experience."
