Teaching Intercultural Citizenship Across the Curriculum: The Role
of Language Education explores how language educators can advocate
for and illustrate the importance of language education not only
for their students’ education but also for their ability to solve
complex problems we urgently need to address. This book introduces
readers to theory and practice in planning, teaching, and assessing
intercultural communication and citizenship across the curriculum.
Teachers, teacher educators, and curriculum designers gain a better
understanding of designing (world) language curricula for
intercultural citizenship by making connections to the students’
knowledge and experiences from other subjects. This enables
students to apply what they learn in language education in their
lives in the here and now.The aim of the book is also to help
language educators work together with teachers of other subjects
(e.g., mathematics, sciences, English language arts) to broaden
students’ understandings and strengthen their intercultural
citizenship development. Theoretical investigations are illustrated
with practical examples and lesson plans from world language
education and linked to other subjects through discipline-specific
content. Questions for reflection encourage the reader to interact
more deeply with the concepts and the suggested examples.
Supporting materials are provided which teachers can adapt for
implementation in their own program.
