Description

Product Description Internationalization in the Classroom focuses on what it means to internationalize K-12 and higher education classrooms. Through a yearlong study, the authors developed methods of internationalizing curricula, pedagogy, and assessments to explore how globalizing a classroom can impact positively students. The educators featured in the volume found that learning with regard to knowledge, culture, and language skills deepened within an internationalized classroom. In each chapter, authors focus on providing practical suggestions for school leaders and educators interested in transforming their schools and classrooms into places where all students can feel welcome, all students can learn, and global differences are addressed and shared in order to capitalize on the richness of students' various cultures and backgrounds. Moving beyond traditional views of multicultural education to an emphasis on international perspectives, this book develops local notions of race and class into global understandings of cultures, religions, and language. Review This book immerses readers into the stories of educators whose experiences in a global context challenged their understandings of culture and language and led them to make significant changes in their classrooms. The strength of this book is the invitation to join the journeys of these educators as they struggle with being outside their comfort zones and use that struggle to transform their teaching.--Kathy G. Short, Professor, Teaching, Learning and Sociocultural Studies, College of Education, University of Arizonia; Director, Worlds of Words; Founder's Endowed Chair of Global Children's and Adolescent Literature As a result of an extensive experience in Peru made possible through a Fulbright-funded project, we gain insight into the growth and transition undergone by a team of teachers and teacher educators as they become more knowledgeable, skilled and globally-competent at understanding the intercultural dynamics at play students in teaching and learning across cultures. This volume provides further evidence of the critical role that firsthand immersion plays in the development of intercultural competence and how it can impact one's teaching in both K-12 as well as teacher education contexts.--Kenneth Cushner, Professor Emeritus of International and Intercultural Education, Kent State University; author of Teacher as Traveler About the Author Delane Bender-Slack is associate professor of literacy and program director for reading and TESOL in the School of Education at Xavier University.
