I’m sorry that missed you all again today, but I found out on my way to school this morning that my baby daughter would be released from the hospital today to come home. I will see you tomorrow. As you learned in class today, I am extending the blog deadline until Friday morning at 9:30 am. Make sure you read the next paragraph before beginning your assignment.
Most that have commented have done a pretty good job. However, some have missed the point that I made about writing a short essay response. In other words – 2 or 3 sentences just does not get it. Exercise your brains and give me some great comments. This is not a completion exercise. I am looking for evidence of real thought. Every one of you has the ability to do quality work, but ability is worth nothing unless it’s put to use.
Beginning of Post
On Monday, you were assigned pages 101-106 to read as classwork - Time Reports: Our Shrinking World.
Combine what you learned from the Time Reports section with topics we have discussed in class concerning globalization - things such as cultural diffusion, emigration, and the movement of jobs and industries to other countries (Chapter 3 will be helpful here). After analyzing all of this information, write a thoughtful comment that addresses the following questions. Please do not feel that you are limited to just these questions. You can also include any well thought out ideas of your own.
- What is globalization?
- What are some of the benefits of globalization, for both Americans and non-Americans?
- Is globalization good for everyone? If not, who suffers in a globalized world?
- What are some of the things that young people today will have to do to prepare for life in a globalized world?
Very Important:
Your comment should consist of a well-written mini-essay. IM slang or abbreviations will not be accepted. Be careful to use proper grammar, correct spelling, and academic language.
Your comments must be posted by 9:30 am, on Thursday, November 8. Late comments will earn no more than half credit.
Do not hesitate to research the topic further. There is much information available online dealing with globalization. Try a Google or Yahoo search.

Globilization is the developement of of the world cultures and independent world economy.It is important because it might erase traditions and customs of smaller groups.Also globalization makes products,services,and technology .Globalization relationship is when people link together of the world nation through trade .
Globalization is like the world under one religion, government, econemy, etc. Globalization can benefit people because it may be easyer to get sertian supplys and there may be fewer wars.I feel globalization is NOT good for everyone because there would be fighting about religion and beliefs.

Globalization is the development of a world culture and an independet world economy.
Some benefits are that they dont have to make all the nessacitys like clothes,and food.
No it not good for every one, becuase the people who live in countrys that have lots of resourse end up making lots of the goods to ship around the world, thats alot of work.
One of the thing us kids have to perpare for is getting a job to make globalization greater every where.
Globalization is the development of a world culture and an interdependant world economy
globalization is very important because a little more than 6 billion people live on earth, and about half of them get by on less than 2 dollars a day! globalization has not been spread out evenly across the world. industrialized countries have much more to trade than developing countries. in Canada you can probably find a jod rather quickly, but Africa and Asia are barely able to create jobs.
Globalization is technology spreading around the world.
The benefit for globalization for Americans is that we can buy and sell things online. And non Americans can buy the things online instead of trading it.
No because some people depend on trade not the internet to get things so they are losing business by that.
They are moving to cities and getting jobs that don’t pay very well.
1. Globalization is the development of a world culture and an independent world economy.
2. Some benefits are, we don't have to make all of our own clothes, and grow all of our food.
3.No it is not good for every one, because the people who live in countries that have a lot of resources end up making a lot of the world's shipments.
4. We have to create, and get jobs with enough pay that we can live off of.
globilizationis the development of a world cultureand the independence of a world economy.
globilization benefits most americans because it helps them supply good that they dont have and are in need of. but it might not help non americans as much because they might not have the mo ney to buy the goods they need. young peopole today will have to learn how to become everyday learners.
