Reyes Quezada, Ed.D., professor and program director for the Interculturally Teaching in Teacher Education (ITTE) project.

“Our world is becoming smaller each day as people and nations become more interconnected through advances in technology. We must

find new ways to broaden our students’

perspectives and opportunities as they

prepare themselves for their role as teachers

and leaders in the new global society.”

About the Longview Foundation

Founded by William L. Breese, the Longview Foundation for

World Affairs and International Understanding has been helping

young people in the United States learn about world regions and

global issues since 1966. the organization supports the belief that

knowledge of other cultures, languages and economies is essential

to strengthening our increasingly diverse society. through grants to

selected institutions, the Longview Foundation aims to give students

an opportunity to gain broad and deep global knowledge and the

language and intercultural skills needed to engage effectively with

people around the world. The significance of the internationalization initiative and the Longview Grantan interview with Dean paula cordeiro, ed.D.
