In response to the changing global climate and the growing
recognition of the professional associations in the teacher
education community, universities around the country are beginning
to recognize the need to add a global dimension to their education
programs. One way to prepare teachers to address the challenges
associated with teaching children in a global age is through
carefully structured, international and intercultural field
experiences where candidates are immersed in another culture. Since
student teaching requires candidates to show they can translate
theory into practice over a sustained period of time, it is ideally
suited for strengthening candidates' intercultural understanding.
Intercultural Student Teaching demonstrates examples of these
successful programs and provides documented experience from
professionals currently engaged in intercultural teaching practice.
Readers will learn from the contributor's experiences through
carefully crafted chapters that focus on major elements of program
implementation and delivery. The contributors report how they have
created, organized, and maintained programs in their purview and
address program features such as selection, orientation and
supervision of participating candidates, interaction with host
families and communities, and strategies for enhancing
understanding of global and domestic diversity.
