World We Imagine Part 3: GlobalSC

About GlobalSC

GlobalSC is an online educational platform that will improve the educational gap in the world by providing access to a USC library of recorded videos from professors, alumni, and students who are looking to change the world. 

GlobalSC will partner with Teach for America and MasterClass to unlock content and train professionals in best helping those in need. Additional guidance from The Office of Gordon and Sarah Brown will help develop global education programs targeted to certain regions and skill needs.

How We Are Different

GlobalSC differs from other online educational platforms because it offers the credibility, drive, and insight of alumni from the University of Southern California. Our teachers will offer courses in academic subjects, personal skills, and philosophy that will help our viewers question their values and find what they believe in. Other platforms such as Khan Academy or MasterClass are limited in their scope and depth of teaching, whereas GlobalSC will provide users with a breadth of learning that applies to all aspects of their lives. 

Business Model

GlobalSC will form as a non-profit organization and partner with other charities and international groups to determine the best offerings for our students. GlobalSC will partner with the University of Southern California and its affiliate institutions and capitalize on the connections the university holds with other educational institutions, government organizations, and foreign countries. 

Why Invest?

GlobalSC provides a promising outlook on the future of education in regions of the world where not all children have access or can afford quality and meaningful education. An investment in GlobalSC means you will improve the lives of communities and students around the world and help them develop tools to better the lives of those around them.

It's difficult to access, which has helped preserve all of its history and seems like a one-of-a-kind city. It's easy to get lost in the writing once you realize there is little plot development in Hav. Morris uses elaborate and colorful English to paint a picture of the lost city of Hav, which I found at times to be distracting while I was still trying to figure out the book's purpose. We follow the author as she meets many people throughout the city, like the members of the Athenaeum - an intellectual club that met to discuss any subject. Morris's words are so descriptive - hearing tales of the Russian politicians who visited, the Chinese influence, and the British Hav - and you get to know...

World We Imagine Part 1

When I think about the greatest problems in the world now, I think about the wealth inequality present in our communities here in LA, in the US, and the whole world. It's easy to think our lives are normal and want more - all we see online on social media and through TV/movies are the lives of the ultra wealthy broadcasted to the world which seem so great. Just in Los Angeles, there are pockets were people barely make enough money to feed themselves daily and there are $100 million dollar homes in the hills with more workers than the average business.  These are just the differences present in California, one of the nicest states in one of the richest countries in the world. As we have seen through a few videos in our class, there are people struggling to get clean water and food in developing countries whose problems are far greater than ours in LA.  I think there's a problem with the average American upbringing. We're taught to idolize wealthy people and celebrities, whic...
