Hello, Goodell8, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Hi, Goodell8 -- welcome to Wikipedia! As Ian mentioned, the Teahouse is a great resource for new editors. But did you know that Wikipedia also has an extensive help library for common questions? Of course, if you run into a question or problem, you're always welcome to get in touch with me either by email or on my talk page. Happy editing!

First, what does the article do well? Is there anything from your review that impressed you? Any turn of phrase that described the subject in a clear way? The article separates each topic well and covers each topic equally. There is a broad view of global education and I’m able to understand its application very clearly through the text.

What changes would you suggest the author apply to the article? Why would those changes be an improvement? I would make citations in the lead section and elaborate on the thoughts to ensure that someone who does not know about education or global education could benefit from reading the article. Writing in present tense instead of future tense would also make the writing seem more declarative and neutral (Ex. Citizens embrace cultural and human diversity instead of citizens will embrace….)

What's the most important thing the author could do to improve the article? Use research to verify claims that use somewhat vague terminology like “many schools” or “variety of organizations”. This way each claim will be verified and sourced and can be trusted by the users reading it.

Did you notice anything about the article you reviewed that could be applicable to your own article? Let them know! The article talks about being a global citizen. This made me google search “global citizen” because I wanted to adapt my thinking and ways of life to become more globally aware and accepting!

First, what does the article do well? Is there anything from your review that impressed you? Any turn of phrase that described the subject in a clear way? Your article topic is wide and you did a good job at dividing them into different small parts and explain them in details. You separated them into careers, organization, children literature and technology to explain global education better.

What changes would you suggest the author apply to the article? Why would those changes be an improvement? You illustrated global education in the United States and also the American universities. I think you can add more examples about global education in different places.

What's the most important thing the author could do to improve the article? Since we are students, so of the words and sentences are not that professional, you should better check your explanation.

Did you notice anything about the article you reviewed that could be applicable to your own article? Let them know! You did a great at dividing the topic into several parts in details, I think it will be good if I do so to my article.
