Two Terms You Can (and Should) Use in the Classroom: Cultural Homogenization and Eurocentrism.
Richardson, George
Canadian Social Studies, v35 n1 Fall 2000
Discusses the issue of how and why classroom teachers should develop strategies for questioning the media's tendency to portray globalization in neutral, unproblematic terms. Focuses on two terms, cultural homogenization and Eurocentrism, and describes classroom activities explaining both terms to help students see the effects of globalization. (CMK)
