American Identity and Global Leadership: TBB '10 student Lucy Griswold edited this incredible video exploring how her life affected those of her host families abroad, even before she arrived. |
While traveling the world teaches many things, perhaps the greatest lessons are what students learn about themselves. In the final three weeks of the program, you'll further explore the relationship of the US to the rest of the world. You'll meet with representatives from the World Bank and IMF to see inside the world's largest development agencies. You'll participate in culminating discussions that bring together your learning and experiences into powerful conclusions.
You'll create a formal multi-media Presentation of Learning that reflects your understanding of our world. You'll share your Presentations of Learning with students around the US to raise awareness around these critical global issues. You'll attend the TBB graduation and celebrate your accomplishments throughout this incredible year.

"After TBB, Lucy went on to her freshman year of college and took classes that were meaningful to her, not just classes that filled a requirement. She finished the year with all A's and more importantly, she was more engaged with her college classroom experience because of the time spent traveling with TBB. Ultimately, her college experience is more valuable as a result of the gap year with TBB. - Betsy Blankenbaker, Parent of Lucy Griswold, TBB '10 |
