Our last newsletter of 1999 features articles on global issue songs, global education in Cuba and guidelines for teaching about world citizenship as well as a global survey of internationally-minded schools and an analysis of images of Africa held by Japanese students and EFL texts. Conference reports include JALT'99 (Maebashi, Japan) and this fall's Pan-Asian PAC2 Conference (Seoul, Korea). This issue also includes a list of global education books for your holiday reading, a report on the 1999 activities of our JALT Global Issues SIG and a list of global calendars for the year 2000.
