<h2>Introductory Workshop: What is GNL &amp; how does it benefit my classroom?</h2><p>Globally networked learning (GNL) refers to an approach to research, learning, and teaching that enables students, faculty, and non-academic researchers from different locations around the world to participate in, and collaborate on, knowledge-making processes and concrete research projects.
