Educators must become leader in global service learning. “How
well we educate our children-whether or not the learn the skills now
needed to participate and thrive in our global economy-will determine
the future health, wealth, and welfare of everyone.” (Trilling, pg. 152) Teachers must have skills, knowledge, and dispositions that promote global service learning.
Teacher leaders must have the skills needed to be forward thinking and adaptable. “We can look forward to a time when a powerful global learning network of 21st century schools and online learning services will provide opportunities for all children, no matter where they live, to have a quality 21st century education, and to acquire the 21st century skills and expertise needed for a successful work life, a happy family life, an active community life and a lifetime of enjoyable learning.” (Trilling, pg. 154) Educators must constantly be increasing their knowledge. The world is evolving at such a rapid rate that teacher leaders must continually be learning to remain relevant. Teacher leaders must have a disposition that is dedicated to global service learning.

Teacher leaders must be adaptable, focused on expanding their knowledge, and dedicated to global service learning.
