= **I. Design space to develop your 250-300 word** // abstract // **that summarizes your question, rationale, and your findings.** = > In Chaos theory, It is said that even a minor perturbations of flapping wings of a [|__butterfly__]  several weeks earlier in south America could cause a hurricane in Europe, which means the tiniest influence on one part of a system can have a huge effect on another part.  We call that butterfly effect. As educators, we know that education can change fate, but we never know how big impact that a tiny word, a small habit could have on our kids, and then, to the world. We always say, we want our students be global citizens, but if we are not, how can we make it? >
 * What is your question?
 * What is your rationale?
 * What are your findings?
 * My question is how can I be a global educator in science room?
 *  There are several ways to achieve that. In ECI 546, ECI 524, ECI 606, ECI 620, ECI 508 we have learned a lot of skills to help us become learner, leaders and even be competent. Teachers are born not developed, so I need to learn to be more professional and I seek for a global sense of teaching. We can use those theories and new literacy to facilitate us become global educators. Teacher leadership is an important component for the global educator ,Leaders become great, not because of their power, but because of their ability to empower others. How we empower our students is also important component of being a global educator. To be a global educator, we have also been influenced by others, some of them might be cosmopolitans, and they can always inspire us. As ourselves, we still work on it. To be a global educator, I am on the way.
 * I find that We have been created in order that we might make a difference. Our actions have value far greater than silver or gold. Our life and what we do with it today matters forever. I am now to learning more and I want to be a leader. Once I become more competent, I am on the way to be a global educator. Although there might be difficulties, but I could insist and finally I can be a global educator by empowering my students to be global citizens.

==Compelling Question:== > Develop your compelling question related to student learning by the end of your first semester in the program. Decide on a question that you are passionate about and want to focus on for the duration of your program. Click here to learn more about what we mean by compelling question. Here are a couple of examples: How do I creatively and effectively engage diverse learners in my middle grades classroom? How can I effectively engage elementary students in reading and writing? > == == > ==Compelling Question： How can I be a global educator in science room? ==

==Gather & Analyze Information:== > Use coursework (including core courses ECI 546, 524, 523, 508 and your content specialty courses), individual investigations, and outside experts to explore different aspects of your question. Actively analyze information from multiple sources and perspectives as you explore answers to your question. Make a list here of the information you are analyzing. As you proceed with your analysis make some notes here about your initial findings and where you anticipate needing more information. Also, make sure to note if and how your compelling question has changed.
 * 1) ECI 606: Teachers as learners. During this course we know that teachers are not developed and there are still a lot of things to learn. If I want to be a global educator, I need to learn more knowledge and skills to become more professional. Learning enables me to be more confident to be a global educator.
 * 2) ECI 546: New Literacies and Media. During this course I have learnt a lot of cool tools and I realize that the technology can facilitate us to get our students more engaged in the class. As a teacher, I want to learn more useful tools and I would recommend my students to use that, which can help them to become digital citizens. All of these can go to learner part, because we are learning by teaching. Global educators should use technology and media well to achieve their goals.
 * 3) ECI 524: Theory Research and Global Learning. During this course, I have learnt that how to be a cosmopolitanism. It does not require you to teach others, but also you need to respect another different culture and learn from them. Only in that way, can I be a cosmopolitan person. As teachers, we not only influence others but also are influenced by our teachers, which is a very cherish experience. I made two project in this class, to show how I was affected by my adviser and how I am growing on my way to be educators. Global educators should be competent.
 * 4) ECI 508: Teachers as Leaders: Leadership is an important component of a global educator. Leaders become great, not because of their power, but because of their ability to empower others. we had the course teachers as leaders. during the class, we made our own leader poster, we had group discussion, we stepped out and talk with strangers,we read books and wrote blogs.A global sense of leadership has been built in me day by day, and it will undoubtedly affect my students in science room. How can I do that? There are a lot of ways. When they do group work, there might be conflicts or they might disagree with others. but they will learn to synergize. They must have a sense of team. They also need to learn how to put first things first. Only in that way, can they achieve the goal. We call that butterfly effect. Before they make a hypothesis, they can begin with the end in mind. They can have a plan together and test if the hypothesis is correct or not. They can value others' strengths and learn from them. There might be conflicts, but they can seek for a way to understand first and then to be understood. That’s the way of win-win. This science leadership training will facility them become well-prepared for global citizens.

==Creatively Synthesize Information:== > Synthesize the information from and across your sources to create a unique response to your question. You should be able to distill your synthesis into 4-6 bullet points (to be included in your written abstract) as well as provide a creative visual representation of your findings. You may use a variety of media and tools to design your visual representation of your Creative Synthesis. Think carefully about the tools that you will use to represent your findings. The first draft of your Creative Synthesis should be developed no later than Midterm/NCSU Spring Break while you are taking the ECI 508, Teachers as Leaders class. Click here to see sample products from former students. To be a global educator, we could achieve that from several ways. 1. Learn general knowledge for teachers. We can learn a lot of things from the class ECI 546 and 606, such as TPACK and Blooms' Taxonomy and so on.

I can reading the NCES and make 5 e plans or learning cycling lesson plan according to the NCES, I could also learn discrepant experiment to make my science class interesting. We could also develop our teaching skills by giving micro teachings in a group.

3. Leadership is an important component to global educators. Leaders become great, not because of their power, but because of their ability to empower others. we had the course teachers as leaders. I can become global educator by empowering my students to be global citizens. I also want my students to build leadership by learning seven good habits through science project. http://www.theleaderinme.org/the-7-habits-for-kids http://wilsonelementaryloganutah.weebly.com/uploads/2/4/0/4/24040115/1158992_orig.jpg http://www.weebly.com/uploads/3/7/8/5/37853455/5474669.png?1430238414 4.

==Critically Evaluate and Revise:== > Seek out at least two colleagues in the NLGL program in addition to your advisor to provide peer feedback on your abstract and creative synthesis based on the NLGL Creative Synthesis Rubric. Based on the feedback you receive, you may choose to make revisions to more fully meet the rubric criteria.

==**Share, Publish, Act:**== > Be prepared to present your Creative Synthesis at the NLGL Design Studio Showcase during your final semester of your degree program, in conjunction with the ECI 508, Teachers as Leaders course.
