- Summary:
- Promoting Global Competence and Social Justice in Teacher Education addresses the growing concern that few practicing teachers in the United States are prepared to handle the demands of educating students for our changing global context. This book advocates for preparing teacher candidates to develop pedagogical strategies that enable students to consider multiple perspectives and cultivate respect for diverse peoples and cultures.
