""Pedagogy of Global Events is highly relevant to today's debates on 21 st century engagement to meet the broader sustainable development agenda. Drawing from insights into media and reception studies, public pedagogy and global citizenship education, Tim Patterson and William Gaudelli offer a critical foundation on the interaction of learning, events and global issues. A remarkable contribution to the scholarship of global citizenship education and a timely and necessary book."" --Dr. Frauke Matz, Chair of English Language Education, Department of English, University of Münster, Germany ""Global citizenship education is both a deeply aspirational and deeply contested concept. Many attempts to promote GCEd reinforce hegemonic and colonial relations of power and fail to engage with the complexities and complicities at the heart of today’s most pressing issues. This book raises a pedagogy for global events to scrutiny and asks what we have or have not learned from the mechanisms for raising awareness of global issues in popular culture over the past several decades."" -- Dr. Karen Pashby, Professor of Global Citizenship Education, Manchester Metropolitan University, England ""How do we cultivate, both inside and outside of the classroom, an aspirational and future-pointing global learning? Drawing from their own global perspective origin story, Patterson and Gaudelli challenge us to rethink what global education looks like by introducing ""global events pedagogy"". It's a breakthrough in exploring how public events like concerts, film festivals, and social media can mediate global awareness and ignite action on our world’s most pressing issues."" -- Dr. Brad Maguth, Professor, Social Studies Education, The University of Akron, USA
