Join Global Classroom for an evening with SIFF exploring various global films. Learn how you can use film effectively to bring the world into the classroom, and explore film as a tool for helping your students understand different countries, cultures, and perspectives; learn about the environment; or meet an important global leader. We’ll explore the possibilities with SIFF’s Educational Programs Manager Dustin Kaspar and Seattle-based documentary filmmaker Sandy Cioffi.
