The state of knowledge continues to evolve in terms of best practices for global learning under the broad rubric of internationalizing the curriculum. Educators can benefit from the use of peer reviewed tools in designing curricula, courses, and learning experiences for global learning experiences. Use of the Global Learning Value Rubric provides a means to develop curricula plans for comprehensive integration of global learning into nursing curriculum, define specific objectives for a range of learning experiences, and to assess student progression in developing global perspectives. The rubric can be used to develop common language and a research agenda around global learning in nursing and interdisciplinary disciplines.
