The article Learning Based on Multiculturalism for Student Diversity, provides an overview of the study on multiculturalism in the educational system of the northern macrozone of Chile, highlighting the increase of Latin American immigrants and ethno-native visibility. It highlights the proposal to design and apply learning plans based on multiculturalism, using a mixed methodology that ranges from the collection of quantitative data to qualitative analysis and the implementation of an action plan in different educational establishments with diverse socioeconomic and cultural characteristics. The importance of using information-gathering tools based on experiences, taking into account the place of origin, family cultural traditions, and difficulties in insertion in school, is underlined to reconstruct micro-histories and promote cultural diversity. This article is part of UNESCO's important pedagogical program Reconnecting With Your Culture where Dr. Olimpia Niglio serves as international president and Dr. Fabiola Colmenero is the president at the continental level in the Americas, where the PhD student in Education Eduardo Olmedo Códova from the American University of Europe, under the leadership of Dr. Colmenero, studies Latin American communities to understand how the study addresses the issue of multiculturalism in the educational context, implementing the RWYC Method and the STEHEAM model as tools used for its analysis and application in educational practice associated with Future Knowledge. In addition, it highlights the relevance of the study in the context of higher education, especially in terms of curriculum design, teaching competencies and application of ICT in multicultural educational processes for being able to integrate art, science and technology in training. Therefore, its constant adaptation to different parts of the world is ideal in the face of the problems of the modern world. Olmedo Córdova , E., & Colmenero Fonseca, F. (2024).

Assistant Dean, Education and Community Outreach at University of California, San Diego / Vicedecano / Secretario Adjunto de Educación y Relaciones Comunitarias de University of California, San Diego
ECO in the Community and in Print (Part 2): Three's Company--a Different Look Triptych as seen in the print version of the The San Diego Union-Tribune on Sunday. Anyone who knows me recognizes that I am (and always have been) a steadfast advocate for equitable access to high-quality education across the lifespan and across the big blue marble, irrespective of geography, language spoken, and access to resources. In other words, education stands as a fundamental human right and good things result from supporting this ambitious objective. The import of this prospect is deepened at home on a regional level, as we have seen that our conurbational cultures and economies are inextricably intertwined. In this context, holistic intersegmental approaches to binational education serve as the catalyst and primary driver of our burgeoning innovatory high-tech economy and concomitant talent development pipeline across sectors. ___ ECO en la Comunidad y en la Prensa (Parte 2):"Three's Company": una Mirada Diferente Tríptico como se ve en la versión impresa del The San Diego Union-Tribune el domingo. Cualquiera que me conozca reconoce que soy (y siempre he sido) un firme defensor del acceso equitativo a una educación de alta calidad a lo largo de la vida y en toda la gran canica azul, independientemente de la geografía, el idioma hablado y el acceso a los recursos. En otras palabras, la educación es un derecho humano fundamental y se obtienen resultados positivos si se apoya este ambicioso objetivo. La importancia de esta perspectiva se profundiza a nivel interno a nivel regional, ya que hemos visto que nuestras culturas y economías conurbacionales están inextricablemente entrelazadas. En este contexto, los enfoques holísticos intersegmentales de la educación binacional sirven como catalizador y principal impulsor de nuestra floreciente economía innovadora de alta tecnología y la concomitante cartera de desarrollo de talentos en todos los sectores.

Did you know that embracing diversity in classrooms could be the most untapped superpower of our education system? 🌟🎓 Recent insights from the Universidad Internacional de La Rioja reveal a startling disconnect: while over 70% of teachers in Spain haven't received intercultural training, the same number are keen to bridge this gap. This isn't just about statistics; it's about unlocking the potential in every student from Seville to Stockholm. Integrating students from diverse backgrounds isn't just about policies—it's about fostering a climate of inclusivity and empathy. With 25% of Spanish schools having more than 10% of students from diverse sociocultural backgrounds, the call for action is clear. We must equip our educators with the tools to embrace this diversity, enriching the learning experience for all. Imagine classrooms buzzing with the collective wisdom of different cultures, where every lesson is a journey around the world. Let’s champion this cause and turn our schools into melting pots of global perspectives. https://lnkd.in/dem4xh7G #GlobalEducation #CulturalDiversity #FutureOfLearning #TeachTheWorld #multilingualism #multilinguallearners #multilingualsupport UNIR - La Universidad en Internet

Drawing upon primary and secondary data from across 44 UK HEIs, this study highlights the support offered to mature #internationalstudents and gaps in #supportprovision, highlighted by #researchers and #practitioners. Results in this paper show that whilst a wide range of support exists to foster the belonging of mature or international students, this is largely aimed at one group rather than mature international students as a whole. The study #highlights the importance of moving away from a deficit model and ensuring that #HEIs focus on #facilitating cultural inclusivity. Thanks for sharing - Dangeni! https://lnkd.in/dA-DucvR

CALL FOR PAPERS | Educação, Sociedade & Culturas’ Special issue on Education, antiracism and decoloniality: tensions, resistances, and possibilities Extended abstracts (of up to 700 words, excluding references) due on March 15, 2024 Guest Editors Dr. Dalila Pinto Coelho, University of Porto, Portugal, dalilacoelho@fpce.up.pt Dr. Su-Ming Khoo, University of Galway, Ireland, suming.khoo@universityofgalway.ie Dr. Maria Elena Indelicato, University of Coimbra, Portugal, mariaelenaindelicato@ces.uc.pt Special issue aims and scope In the face of particularly vicious contemporary colonial and racist violence, it is vital to call upon all antiracist and decolonial powers to understand current struggles and envision transformed futures. Taking different trajectories across countries, regions, and players, antiracist and decolonial approaches have gathered significant attention worldwide. Education has played a central role within these approaches, although it is sometimes an instrumental rather than a transformative role. The project of decolonising education strives to counter racial discrimination by reforming national histories and curricula to render them more inclusive. However, these efforts have not (yet) been properly prioritised and systematically funded. On the contrary, constructive and progressive initiatives, such as foreign language and cultural programmes and supplementary schooling initiatives, have tended to suffer from disinvestment and neglect. Similarly, Indigenous, non-eurocentric and/or otherwise marginalised perspectives and scholarship on education have been largely ignored, raising important questions about who is supposed to benefit from the reform of national curricula and pedagogical practices and why. Important dates - Submission of extended abstracts (up to 700 words, excluding references): March 15, 2024 - Notification of selected abstracts: April 15, 2024 - Submission of full manuscript (up to 7000 words, in total): July 15, 2024 - Publication: 2025 More info: https://lnkd.in/d_xTDA7i

🌎My (short) take on Global Studies Global Studies is often misconstrued as a non-traditional undergraduate program, leaving my students feeling out of place amidst their peers. They find themselves caught in a tension between local job market dynamics and the global opportunities that their studies can open up. This tension is exacerbated by the University's own unfamiliarity with the field of Global Studies, which, despite being well-established in other regions of the world, is relatively new in Colombia. One of the challenges in teaching Global Studies is navigating the postmodern and activist-laden discourse that often surrounds the field. My approach is pragmatic and modern, preparing my students to be not only politically and socially conscious citizens but also top-notch analysts and consultants in the global job market. Critical thinking is a cornerstone of Global Studies, but universities often misunderstand it as a political stance against the establishment. I strive to teach my students that critical thinking is about independent, analytical reasoning, free from ideological constraints. The job market for Global Studies professionals is vast and varied, stretching across the globe. My goal is to equip my students with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in this dynamic and ever-changing landscape, giving them the tools they need to make a difference, whether that be in the realm of political and social activism or as leading analysts and consultants. As Global Studies continue to gain traction in Colombia and across Latin America, other higher education institutions are now planning to introduce their own undergraduate and postgraduate programs in this field. This is a testament to the increasing relevance and importance of Global Studies in our interconnected world. We invite you to learn more about our innovative program of Global Studies at the University of The Andes, where we are at the forefront of shaping the future of global education in Latin America.

How do philosophy and global citizenship education connect in the classroom? Dr Nicholas Parkin shared his thinking on this kaupapa at the Step up to the World | Tū māia ki te Ao forum this year. We've summarised his main ideas in our latest article, 'Philosophy and global citizenship education'. Nik's overview of philosophy in education emphasises its transformative impact on students. Philosophy encourages critical thinking, challenges societal norms and fosters metacognition, supporting students in understanding how they learn. The benefits of learning philosophy extend beyond academic performance, promoting increased confidence, social-emotional development, and resilience. Despite these advantages, Nik acknowledges the challenges of incorporating philosophy into school curriculums in Aotearoa New Zealand, citing the lack of dedicated NCEA subjects and a shortage of qualified teachers. He talks about the political nature of educational choices, emphasising that curriculums can perpetuate social inequalities. Nik gives his perspective on how philosophy education aligns with global citizenship, fostering a sense of responsibility and preparing students for the wider world through exploration of sustainable development goals. By developing critical thinking and moral virtue, philosophy contributes to individual well-being and community engagement, enriching students' understanding of their place in a global context. In our article you can also find links to his slide deck, a video recording of his keynote and various other useful philosophy resources. https://lnkd.in/ga2NQ8wP #GlobalCitizenship #GlobalEd North Asia Centre of Asia-Pacific Excellence Southeast Asia Centre of Asia-Pacific Excellence Latin America Centre of Asia-Pacific Excellence The University of Waikato
