Boston Globe 4/26/13: Wayland resident writes book. Wayland resident Carl Hobert, founder and executive director of the Axis of Hope Center for International Conflict Prevention in Boston, traces his devotion to global diplomacy to the court-ordered busing mandate that brought youth from all nationalities and religions to his high school in Minneapolis. In his newly published book, Raising Global IQ: Preparing Our Students for a Shrinking Planet, Hobert draws on his 30 years of experience in education in promoting the use of role-playing to introduce global issues in kindergarten through high school, while simultaneously developing communication and negotiation skills.
