Means to Me?” (Use extra paper for this activity)
To me, globalization means living in a world that is more connected and
interdependent than ever before. It is the exchange of ideas, cultures, goods, and
technologies that transcend borders, allowing people from different countries to
learn from and collaborate with each other. Globalization has transformed how we
communicate, work, and experience life by creating a sense of unity despite
geographical distances. As a student, globalization opens doors to endless learning
opportunities. I can access educational resources, research, and ideas from around
the world at the click of a button. It inspires me to think beyond my local
environment, helping me understand global issues like climate change, economic
inequality, and technological advancements. It also encourages me to embrace
cultural diversity, respect different perspectives, and develop skills needed in a
competitive global workforce.Comment by Jackielyn Lacebal: AI-generated 100%AI-
