Book excerpt: Intercultural Education: Critical Perspectives, Pedagogical Challenges, and Promising Practices, co-edited by Cinzia Pica-Smith, Carmen N. Veloria and Rina Manuela Contini, is an edited volume that brings together scholars from across the globe who delve critically into the frameworks of interculturalism and intercultural education to go beyond the European context, to reorient our perspectives on the frameworks and engage in new conversations across various institutional contexts and countries. The scholars in this volume explore and critique intercultural education on localized alliances, epistemologies, pedagogy, multi-sector collaborations, and language policies. Some scholars contextualize this phenomenon by acknowledging the on-going struggles for recognition, representation, and heritage language maintenance; while others write about the institutionalization that brings about warped narratives, produces challenges and tensions, and the interplay of power dynamics that impacts practice which is ultimately felt most by practitioners and students. Finally, authors move beyond this critique by working with diverse communities, expanding the dialogue to include multiple perspectives, and promoting the adaptation of indigenous practices in new ways.The scholar-practitioners in this collection engage with the theory and practice of intercultural education to describe, interrogate, critique, and put forth recommendations for future iterations of policy and practice. They do not stop at historicizing, contextualizing, and problematizing the conceptual framework. These scholars go beyond analysis and provided us a roadmap to real-life possibilities for changes to the framework of intercultural education that will manifest in policy and curricula that will impact the institution of schools, translating, ultimately, into real-time change in the lives of children and their communities.

This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to this volume have collaborated to present their work on introducing competences in intercultural communication and citizenship into foreign language education.

This involves the creation of a new theory of intercultural citizenship and a procedure for implementation. The book is written by teacher researchers who aim to help other teachers, and concludes with reflections on the lessons they have learnt which will help others to implement these ideas in their own practice. The book is essential reading for foreign language educators and researchers, students in pre-service teacher training and teachers in in-service training.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta obra é resultado de um estudo sobre educação intercultural no âmbito da formação contínua de professores em Portugal. A razão que motivou a pesquisa prende-se a exigência e o desafio que a temática intercultural representa nas sociedades pós-modernas, nomeadamente, ao sistema educativo. As relações entre sociedade e cultura(s) adquirem atualmente uma relevância especial, tanto no âmbito internacional e local, bem como o debate sobre a temática da diversidade cultural tornou-se uma urgência social. Estudar a temática da interculturalidade em contextos formativos ou educativos são desafiantes por várias razões as quais apresentamos no livro. As questões abordadas no livro permitiram compreender a importância que a Formação de Professores para a Educação Intercultural tem na construção de uma autêntica escola de qualidade, consubstanciando um meio intrinsecamente eficiente para tornar a cultura organizacional e pedagógica das escolas cada vez mais capaz de responder as necessidades educativas de todos os alunos.

Download or read book Intercultural Education and Literacy written by Sheila Aikman and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1999-03-15 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous peoples around the world are calling for control over their education in order to reaffirm their identities and defend their rights. In Latin America the indigenous peoples, national governments and international organisations have identified intercultural education as a means of contributing to this process. The book investigates education for and by indigenous peoples and examines the relationship between theoretical and methodological developments and formal practice. An ethnographic study of the Arakmbut people of the Peruvian Amazon, provides a detailed example of the social, cultural and educational change indigenous peoples are experiencing, an insight into Arakmbut oral learning and teaching practices as well as a review of their conceptualisations of knowledge, pedagogy and evaluation. The models of intercultural education being promoted by Latin American governments are, nevertheless, biliterate and school-based. The book analyses indigenous and non-indigenous models based on different conceptualisations of culture and curriculum in the context of the Arakmbut search for an education which respects their dynamic oral cultural traditions and identity, provides them with a qualitatively relevant education about the wider society and addresses the intercultural lives they lead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection highlights the diversity of perspectives within the broad field of intercultural education, focusing on education in modern multicultural societies, as well as exploring the role of migrant populations as modern citizens. The chapters examine these themes both through historical analysis, tracing the pathway of intercultural education back to ancient Greece, before focussing on modern multicultural societies. It also discusses intercultural learning issues in multicultural contexts, dynamic approaches and practical applications in modern classrooms and the main issues in teacher training in relation to immigrant students. The volume highlights the need to design more effective social and educational policies for immigrant populations, on the basis of respecting, protecting and supporting all social groups, irrelevant of their country of origin, racial or ethnic background, sexual orientation, socio-economic class or religious beliefs. It brings together conceptual and empirical contributions from well-known authors in the field as well as from younger scholars and researchers. The result is a mixture of ideas that will provide food for thought and discussion to an international readership. This book was originally published as a special issue of Intercultural Education.

Book excerpt: International Perspectives on Intercultural Education offers a comprehensive analysis of intercultural education activity as it is practiced in the countries of Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Romania, Spain, England, South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Chapters by key scholars and practitioners from these nations inform the reader of current educational practice related to diversity. Each author, responding to a common series of guiding questions, presents: *a brief description of the national educational system in her or his country; *descriptive data on demographics in these countries, including data on various subgroups and subcultures and their experiences with the mainstream educational system; * a discussion of the perceived obstacles to addressing intercultural issues in schools and solutions to overcoming these obstacles; and *a comprehensive analysis of intercultural information on how teacher preparation institutions address intercultural education at the present time. An overall concern of each chapter author is how intercultural approaches can be employed to solve the difficulties faced by both individuals and schools while maintaining the cultural integrity of the child.

Download or read book Intercultural Transitions in Higher Education written by Alina Schartner and published by Studies in Social Interaction. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores the experience of being an international student in higher education Over four-million people worldwide are currently studying abroad. These international student sojourns are, first and foremost, social experiences, with social interaction being both a success factor for and an outcome of this intercultural transition. But what's it like being an 'international' student? How is the experience different from studying 'at home', and what might make it a positive experience or otherwise? Schartner and Young detail how recent research has attempted to answer key questions related to the transition between different national learning environments, and show how it is helping to inform debates, policy and practice on the 'international student experience'. They also introduce a guiding conceptual model that captures the adjustment and adaptation trajectories of this unique and important group. This book: - Encompasses the full temporal range of the international student experience, from the decision to study abroad to the longer-term outcomes after the sojourn - Draws together findings from across a transdisciplinary range of areas including social psychology, education, applied linguistics and intercultural communication studies - Explores the international student experience and how it might be understood as an academic, psychological and sociocultural phenomenon of adjustment and adaptation - Provides a researcher toolkit showcasing a combination of quantitative and qualitative approaches, enabling researchers to study both processes and outcomes of intercultural transition in higher education Alina Schartner is Lecturer in Applied Linguistics at Newcastle University Tony Johnstone Young is Reader in Applied Linguistics and Communication at Newcastle University
