2)	The field of psychology can play a significant role in the development of global perspective skills. In psychology, global perspective can be seen as an ability to understand and navigate the complexities of cross-cultural interactions and to appreciate and value cultural differences. For example, research in cross-cultural psychology has shown that people from different cultures may have different ways of perceiving, thinking, and communicating. This knowledge can help individuals to understand and navigate these differences and to communicate more effectively with people from different cultures. Research in social psychology has also shown that people tend to have an in-group bias, where they favor their own group over others. Understanding this bias can help individuals to be more aware of their own biases and to work towards reducing them. Research in cognitive psychology has also shown that people's beliefs, attitudes and values are shaped by the cultural context in which they were raised. Understanding how culture influences the way people think and act can help individuals to understand and navigate different cultural contexts. Research in developmental psychology has shown that children develop a sense of self and others in a cultural context. Understanding this process can help individuals to understand how cultural context shapes the way children think, feel and act. Overall, the field of psychology can provide a valuable perspective on the development of global perspective skills. It can help individuals to understand and navigate cross-cultural interactions, to appreciate and value cultural differences, and to develop a sense of empathy and understanding towards people from different cultures. Additionally, understanding the psychological factors that affect the development of global perspective skills can help individuals to improve their own global perspective and to create more inclusive and understanding environments.
3)	The importance of Global Pespective Mindfullness 21. Century skills, Global topics: technology, science, politics, ethics, environment, economy, culture. The definition of being a citizen of the world. The differences between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. Marchall McLuhan separate the history of mankind into 4 important periods. One of these periods to another is due to the fact that communication leads to a major change in society. In his book THE GUTENBERG GALAXY, he predicted that the world would become a global village with ELECTRONIC DEPENDENCE. It can be summarized as having used the first global word. Also, growth mindset vs. fixed mindset had been discussed. It is detailed as a Powerpoint slide. Mindfulness is an important aspect of global perspective because it enables individuals to be present in the moment and to pay attention to their own thoughts, feelings, and actions. Mindfulness can help individuals to develop a deeper understanding of their own biases and perspectives, and to be more aware of the thoughts and feelings of others. Having a mindful global perspective means being able to step back and observe one's own thoughts, feelings, and actions in relation to the world around them. It means being able to take a step back from one's own perspective and to see things from other people's perspectives. This can be especially important when interacting with people from different cultures, as it can help to reduce misunderstandings and to build more positive relationships. Mindfulness also means being able to remain calm and composed in the face of uncertainty and change. In a globalized world, change is constant and it can be challenging to navigate. Mindfulness can help individuals to be more resilient in the face of change and to adapt to new situations more easily. Furthermore, Mindfulness can also help individuals to develop empathy and understanding towards people from different cultures. It can help to reduce the effects of stereotypes and biases, and to build more positive relationships. Overall, mindfulness plays an important role in global perspective, as it helps individuals to be more aware of their own thoughts and feelings and to be more open to the perspectives and experiences of others. By developing mindfulness skills, individuals can improve their ability to understand and navigate the complexities of the globalized world and to become more effective global citizens.

10)	Social norms, norms, laws, mores, folkways, and taboos are all types of norms that shape behavior and interactions in society. They can have a significant impact on how individuals and groups interact with each other, and can vary widely between cultures and communities. Social norms and norms are often used interchangeably, but they can have slightly different meanings. A norm is a rule or expectation that shapes behavior in a given society. Norms can be formal or informal, and they can vary widely between cultures and communities. They can also change over time as society evolves and new norms emerge. Social norms specifically refer to the unwritten rules and expectations that shape behavior in a given society. They govern how people interact with each other and can include things like customs, traditions, and etiquette. Social norms can also be viewed as the "unspoken agreement" among the members of a group or society about how they should behave in certain situations. So, while "norms" can refer to any type of rule or expectation that shapes behavior, "social norms" specifically refer to the unwritten rules and expectations that govern how people interact with each other in a given society. Social norms: These are the unwritten rules and expectations that shape behavior in a given society. Understanding social norms is important for navigating and understanding different cultures and communities. Laws: These are formal rules and regulations that are enforced by the government and have legal consequences for those who violate them. Laws are generally considered more formal and strict than other types of norms. Mores: These are norms that are considered more important than folkways and have a more significant impact on society.

They are not strictly enforced, but they shape social expectations and can have an impact on social interactions. Taboos: These are norms that are strictly forbidden in a given society, and violation of these norms is met with strong disapproval or punishment. It's important to note that these norms are not mutually exclusive, they can overlap and interact with each other. They also change over time and can be influenced by cultural, historical, and societal factors. From a global perspective, understanding the different types of norms such as laws, mores, folkways, and taboos is important for navigating and understanding different cultures and communities. These norms shape behavior and interactions in society and can have a significant impact on how individuals and groups interact with each other. In terms of lessons, a global perspective on these subjects would suggest the importance of: Recognizing the difference between laws, mores, folkways, and taboos and how they shape behavior and interactions in different societies. Understanding that laws are formal rules and regulations that are enforced by the government and have legal consequences for those who violate them. Recognizing that mores are norms that are considered more important than folkways and have a more significant impact on society.

Magna Carta also established the concept of "habeas corpus", which required individuals to be brought to court if they were arrested and detained, and to be given the opportunity to challenge their arrest. 39, which is still valid today. the article of the law was taught. We discussed the French Revolution and its effects on human rights in its historical dimension. The causes and consequences of the beginning of the public, the influence of which was significant in the French Revolution, were studied. the important names of this period were evaluated. The General Declaration of Human rights is an international convention adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948 and signed by all countries of the world. This convention states the basic principles and rights for the protection and development of man rights.to To ensure justice and equality between people, Decriminalize human rights inequality.

14)	Patrick Geddes was a Scottish biologist, sociologist, geographer, philanthropist, and pioneering town planner who is often credited with first coining the phrase "Think globally, act locally." Geddes was one of the first to use the phrase in the context of town planning and regional development, in his 1915 book "Cities in Evolution: An Introduction to the Town Planning Movement and to the Study of Civics" which he develops the idea of "regional planning" and the need to consider the interactions between the environment, economy and society in the development of cities and regions. Geddes also emphasized the importance of thinking globally and understanding the interconnectedness of issues, while also taking action at the local level to address these issues. His ideas on regional planning and his emphasis on the importance of thinking globally and acting locally continue to be influential in urban and regional planning, as well as in discussions of sustainability and community development. "Think globally, act locally" is a phrase that encourages individuals and communities to consider the impact of their actions on the global environment and society, while also taking action at the local level to address these issues. This concept is closely linked to the idea of sustainability and the need to balance economic, social, and environmental considerations in decision making. By thinking globally and understanding the interconnectedness of issues such as climate change, poverty, and human rights, individuals and communities can make informed decisions and take effective action to create positive change in their local communities and beyond. Incorporating a global perspective into our daily lives and decision-making process means taking into account the interconnectedness of issues, understanding the impact of our actions on the global community, and being aware of the social, economic, and environmental implications of our choices.
