Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: International relations is seldom taught in middle and high schools, and similarly is not included in AP exam areas for Political Science. To the extent that international topics are covered at all, it is generally in foreign language and history courses. I teach global affairs at the university level, and became interested in carrying international relations to middle and high schools around the state. I originally planned to offer a course on my home campus or at the nearest metropolitan center (Greenville, SC), but because of the very scattered, diverse audience I ended up offering an online course during the summer of 2005 on global affairs for middle and high school teachers. For this purpose, I attended a semester-long course at my home university on teaching online courses. I am currently scheduled to teach a second, revised version of this online course during the summer of 2006. My paper for the February 2006 APSA Teaching and Learning Conference in Political Science focuses on how I organized the initial version of the course, what were lessons learned, and how I am revising the course for a second time around. Basic to my efforts was to focus my approach on the development of fairly compact international relations modules that could be carried by teachers into their existing courses. Each student was assigned to develop two such modules relying on evidence supplied from the course and other assigned materials. The target audience was basically teachers involved in the social sciences, although I have been working to strengthen a humanities dimension to the course. The course was initially listed as a Political Science course and cross-listed as a Languages course, so that languages teachers could carry global affairs modules into their classes as well as teachers of civics and history. In addition to my primary role as Professor of Political Science, I hold a Joint Appointment as Professor of Languages. In the early 1990s I wrote an article in PS on my teaching of international relations courses in foreign languages.
