These practice-oriented books expand on Dr. Yong Zhao's acclaimed World Class Learners, which presents a new framework for cultivating creative and entrepreneurial students.

The third book in the series outlines how to:
Transform students into strong, responsible global citizens
Leverage experts, networks, and partner school relationships
Implement a "glocalized" Global Campus or classroom
