This area of financing provides many options for an exporter and in some cases desirable financing options for an importer. It is important to remember that all options carry risk and the greater the risk the higher the cost. When evaluating risk, the associated costs must be a factor in the cost equation. The financing tools that have been presented in other sections merge at this point into potential financing options.MSU Global has teamed with experts in the international finance field to create resources to help increase international skills in the business community. These materials address the need of the international trade practitioner for knowledge and information that is specific to trade finance by providing a means for educators and business practitioners to transfer knowledge, skills, and understanding of the global marketplace to a number of prospective learners. These resources were created around the framework developed by the NASBITE International Certified Global Business Professional Program.

Asynchronous self-guided workshop series designed to guide college faculty through the process of develop, adapting, and/or creating Open Educational Resources for their courses. These workshops were designed specifically to support faculty and staff participating in the Open Western OER Fellowship program at Western Technical College in La Crosse, WI.
Each workshop includes video tutorials, written instruction, and editable templates to support each phase of OER development. Each of the four workshops guides participants through one phase of the OER development:
Workshop 1: Project Planning guides participants through an initial planning phase, in hopes of laying the groundwork for a successful project. It's designed to help participants think through their end product and what will be needed to make it a reality.
Workshop 2: Project Creation covers the core activities of content adaptation, remix, and original creation. This is also where important practical tasks are introduced including using outside source material and prioritizing accessibility.
Workshop 3: Revising and Publishing takes participants through a guided revision process and then leads into final publication.
Workshop 4: Teaching with OER has participants evaluate the creation process and plan for the future. This workshop also discuss ways to use your OER with students and begin to incorporate concepts of open pedagogy into their classrooms.

Practice Profiles define a design essential (critical practice) in the school. Practice profiles create a shared understanding and commitment to the things in the practitioner’s control. These profiles explain in detail expectations for implementation by providing a description of the necessary design essential or critical practices.
The following are benefits of using practice profiles in schools:
-Clearly and consistently defining elements of the charter school model -Allowing for deeper knowledge and transparency of the work happening in the charter school -Support co-creation and collaboration between key stakeholders -Create a culture of continuous improvement -Use teachers as the experts -Allowing acknowledgment of areas in the work that need improvement and support -Practice Profiles could help support educator effectiveness practice -Providing a structure to help support school, staff, and program evaluation

This project is a reflection to action tool based on the work of Muhammad (2020) in her book, "Cultivating Genius for Culturally and Historically Relevant Literacy." This tool contains a reflective chart that assesses the impact of each of Muhammad's pursuits including identity, skills, intelligence, criticality, and joy in relation to university, departmental, and course procedures and curriculum. Specific improvements are suggested to cultivate genius in each pursuit in both the Early Childhood STEM Math Methods and Early Childhood Science and Environment Methods courses. As a result of the reflective process, a notable course improvement discovered relates to culturally-responsive children's literature. This tool includes a plan of action to acquire new Math, STEM, Science, and Environment children's literature that is culturally-responsive, to add a unit topic related to questioning strategies that cultivate genius, and a modified STEM Literacy project. This tool includes a sample project revision as well as suggested culturally-responsive children's literature in each STEM and Environmental Education area.
This project was created as part of the 2023 Teacher Educator Network for Environmental Education Summit.
