Publisher's Synopsis
The first resource to combine the theory of globalizing education preparation programs (EPP) with practice collected from all regions of the world, At School in the World: Developing Globally Engaged Teachers makes the case for the importance of and necessity for incorporating global citizenship and intercultural competence development into education curricula at all levels and in every region of the world.
Through insights from the field and practical examples, along with its broad scope, this comprehensive work aims to help teacher educators, teachers, and education policy developers to:
- develop their awareness of the importance of internationalization of teacher education;
- develop their intercultural competence; and
- learn strategies for incorporating global approaches in their courses and programs.
This volume includes the voices of 47 emerging and distinguished intercultural education scholars from over ten countries, providing a breadth and depth of experiences and practices never before collected in one book. This is an ideal resource for division leaders of EPP at colleges and universities, education policy developers, teacher preparation faculty, and pre- and in-service teachers (undergraduate as well as graduate).
