Revisit Highlights from IEW 2022
Go Global Ed Podcast
- We proudly highlighted the Go Global Ed Podcast during IEW 2022. The IFLE office administers eight Title VI (domestic) and three Fulbright-Hays (overseas) grant and fellowship programs that strengthen foreign language instruction, area/international studies teaching and research, professional development for educators, and curriculum development at the K-12, graduate, and postsecondary levels. By hearing directly from grantees and fellows, the Go Global Podcast highlights the experiences of IFLE grant and fellowship recipients, provides unique insights into the application process, and explores the long-term value and impact of IFLE programs.
