Global Topic What global issue or topic do you want to explore? This can be a topic that you want to teach to students, learn more about yourself, or share with colleagues or the broader community. Responsible Consumption and Production in relation to Clean Water and Sanitation. The case of the city of Apizaco in the state of Tlaxcala in Mexico where USA multinationals such as Coca-Cola Company takes most of the water and pollutes the rest.

Student Knowledge What do you want your audience (i.e. students, colleagues, community members, etc.) to know about the topic? Think about the knowledge and skills you might want to address. This class will be taught to mid-advanced Spanish learners at University level.

Specifically, how multinational companies have a great impact on the environment and water accessibility in Mexico.

Practitioner Knowledge What do YOU need to know or learn to be able to address this topic? I need to know what my students know about the impacts of USA industry on different countries. I need to understand the gist of all the resources I am going to give to my students. I need to know how to link their previous knowledge of the topic to a general idea that can solve the issue. I need to be able to connect their own reality into action without relying on guilt.
