In today's global village, the ability to relate to people from other cultures is becoming increasingly important for all those involved in education. Designed for teacher trainers, this book will help in shaping and assessing teacher preparation programmes from a global perspective. The book offers: a clear conceptual framework for the exploration of global perspectives; an insightful guide for establishing goals, objectives and rationale; a working definition of global education; and a rich collection of case studies that can be translated into a variety of settings.
